It turns out that Jung Jiwoo (정지우), the sister of BTS member J-Hope (제이홉), is a force to be reckoned with in her own right. Far from living in her brother’s shadow, Jiwoo, also known as Mejiwoo (미지우), is an accomplished entrepreneur and influencer with a strong online presence and distinct personal style.

Despite the potential pressures of being related to an international superstar, she is confidently forging her own path in the fashion and business worlds. Here are seven fun facts about this inspiring woman:

1. She Legally Changed Her Birth Name

Jiwoo made a significant decision to legally change her name to match her public identity as a brand and entrepreneur. Originally known as Jung Dawon (정다원), she officially changed her name to Jung Jiwoo.

This change was part of her broader effort to align her personal and professional life as she continues to build her fashion and lifestyle brand under her new legal identity. This move further solidifies her presence in the industry.

2. She Is Married

On 5th May 2021, Jiwoo tied the knot with her non-celebrity husband in a private ceremony held in Gangnam, Seoul. The wedding was attended by close family members and friends.

Despite her high-profile status, Jiwoo has kept her married life relatively private, sharing only a few glimpses with her followers on social media. The couple’s decision to keep their relationship out of the public eye has been respected by fans, allowing them to enjoy their personal life in peace.

3. She Revamped Her Online Business

In 2018, the businesswoman launched her online clothing brand, MEJIWOO, which quickly gained popularity. However, earlier this May, she took to her personal Instagram account to announce the transformation of the brand’s identity, rebranding it as JUNGJIWOO. As part of this change, the old website was officially closed on 5th June 2024, marking a new chapter for her business.

In March 2021, Jiwoo signed with Cube Entertainment, the same agency that represents popular K-Pop groups like (G)I-DLE (여자아이들) and Pentagon (펜타곤). Unlike the common contracts for idols, she joined Cube as an entertainer, embracing her multifaceted roles as an influencer, fashion entrepreneur, and content creator.

5. She Has A Pet Dog

As many BTS fans know, Mickey is the beloved dog of the Jung household, and Jiwoo often shares updates about him on her Instagram. She once revealed that Mickey developed glaucoma and had to undergo surgery. Unfortunately, the operation couldn’t save his vision, and Mickey eventually lost his sight. Despite this, Jiwoo continues to take care of him with love and dedication, ensuring that Mickey remains well-loved and comfortable.

6. She Has 2.39M YouTube Subscribers

The 34-year-old is also a well-known YouTuber in South Korea. Jiwoo began her channel in 2020 with casual daily vlogs and quickly expanded it to include content that aligns with her entrepreneurial ventures.

Her videos primarily feature her daily life, fashion advice, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into her businesses. Thanks to her engaging content, her channel has grown significantly, amassing 2.3 million subscribers.

7. She’s Appearing In Netflix’s “The Influencer”

Recently, it was discovered that Jiwoo is set to appear in a Netflix reality show titled “The Influencer” in South Korea. The show will follow top influencers as they compete in various challenges to prove their influence and creativity. Jiwoo, known for her fashion brand and social media presence, is among the contestants to showcase her entrepreneurial skills.
