Singer-songwriter's long-term relationship with Jeon Sony's sister sparks 'star family couple' buzz

Singer-songwriter Ozone, surprising confession of cohabitation for 8 and a half years... Birth of a 'star family couple' with Jeon Sony's younger sister, Jeon Jooni

[OSEN=Reporter Kim Soo-hyung] Singer Ozone has drawn netizens' attention by surprisingly confessing to a long-term relationship and cohabitation that has lasted for 8 and a half years. As the identity of his partner was revealed to be Jeon Jooni, the younger sister of actor Jeon Sony and daughter of Ko Jae-sook, a former member of the group Barney Girls, attention is focused on the news of the birth of another 'star family couple'.

In a video released on the YouTube channel Sapiens Studio on the 18th of last month, Ozone honestly opened up, saying, "I also have a partner. I've been in a long-term relationship, but people don't believe me when I mention it on broadcasts." He added, "They ask for proof because I don't take many photos, but neither of us likes that kind of thing," eliciting laughter.

Notably, Ozone mentioned, "We've been in a relationship for over 8 and a half years without any accidents. We've been cohabiting for a long time now, and people around us often say, 'Aren't you basically in a common-law marriage?'" He continued, "I'm curious about the difference between being married or not, so we're at the stage of thinking, 'Should we try it?'" hinting at the possibility of marriage.

The reason his confession became a hot topic is because his partner is Jeon Jooni. Jeon Jooni has been Ozone's musical collaborator and life partner through their activities in the project band Pigfrog. Photos of the two affectionately cheek-to-cheek were also shared on Jeon Jooni's SNS, proving their deep affection.

Netizens reacted passionately to Ozone's remarks. Comments ranged from "Wow, 8 and a half years of cohabitation definitely counts as a common-law marriage," "It's truly impressive they've been together since before his debut," and "I hope to hear wedding news soon," to admiration like "The fact that they've protected each other for so long is already more valuable than marriage." Some expressed surprise and anticipation, saying, "A connection between star families -- this is the birth of a new star family couple."

Meanwhile, Ozone debuted in 2016 with the EP '(O)' and gained public love in 2019 with the OST 'Let's Make a Galaxy Between Us' for the drama Enter Search Word Into WWW. Jeon Jooni, known as a singer, younger sister of Jeon Sony, and daughter of Barney Girls' Ko Jae-sook, is herself a topic of interest.
