Family:
His father is Mr. Jung Hae-hoon, a former television news anchorman.
His mother is Mrs. Sim Yeon-ok, she is a professor at the Korean National University of Cultural Heritage. She knows a lot about Korean traditional fashion and fabrics!
His sister is Ms. Jung Shi-sung who is 5 years older than him. I read she is in the world of Fashion Design too. Someone once told me that Jung Il-woo does not like anything posted about his sister, he is very protective of her, that’s why I will not create any posts or pages about her until I ask his permission.
