Personal Life

Ham Eun-jeong (Hangul: 함은정) (sometimes stylized as Ham Eun Jung; born December 12, 1988) is a South Korean idol singer, rapper, dancer and actress. She rose to prominence with her status as a member of K-pop girl group T-ara.
Eun-jeong was born in Seoul, South Korea. Her mother, a graduate of Ewha Womans University, is a former piano teacher who works as Eun-jeong's agent. While attending seventh grade, Eun-jeong started taekwondo lessons and won three different competitions. Her mother made the decision to quit teaching and manage Eun-jeong's career upon her high school graduation in 2007. Later that year, Eun-jeong enrolled in Dongguk University, where she took performance courses. She is an only child and has been quoted as explaining, "My mother had me 10 years after she was married to my father, which seems more hurtful. Upon watching several famous performers in the past, she wanted to become an actress. Now that I have, she is very pleased I have acting as a priority. She believes her original prayers were answered." In 1995, when Eun-jeong was seven years old, she participated in the "Little Miss Korea" pageant and won. That same year, she appeared in the youth drama "신세대 보고서 어른들은 몰라요" ("Sinsedae Bogoseo Eoreundeureun Mollayo"), which aired on television. Afterwards, she had several minor roles in movies and Korean dramas, along with being cast in a handful of commercial films.
