Seo Yu-jung Wins 50,000 Won Lottery Prize After Dreaming of Ha Jung-woo

Actor Seo Yu-jung recalled the time she dreamed about actor Ha Jung-woo and later won 50,000 won in the lottery. The story also brought back memories of Ha Jung-woo's response last year to an anecdote from the winner of a unranked housing application for Dongtan Station Lotte Castle, reviving the lighthearted jokes about luck that have followed his name.

In the YouTube content <Yujeong and Jujeong>, released on June 18, Seo Yu-jung sat down with Hyun Young, a friend she has known for 20 years. As the two drank wine that Ha Jung-woo had taken part in producing, his name naturally came up in conversation. Looking at the wine label, Hyun Young mentioned that Ha Jung-woo also paints.

When Seo Yu-jung reacted with surprise, Hyun Young referred to Ha Jung-woo in a familiar way and drew a laugh. Seo Yu-jung immediately played along, asking why Hyun Young had dropped his family name. It was the kind of casual exchange that felt possible because the two entertainers have known each other for a long time.

The conversation became funnier after that. When Hyun Young remembered once running into Ha Jung-woo by chance, Seo Yu-jung brought up her own dream story. She said, "Ha Jung-woo appeared in my dream," then added that she had bought a lottery ticket afterward and won 50,000 won.

Hyun Young responded, "Ha Jung-woo is worth 50,000 won?" and the two continued laughing for a while. The point of the moment was not a huge prize but the easy, modest joke that emerged from connecting a dream with a lottery ticket.

Seo Yu-jung's remark drew more attention because Ha Jung-woo had already been linked to a similar story. Last year, the unranked housing application for Dongtan Station Lotte Castle drew 2,944,780 applicants for a single available household.

One poster who identified themselves as the winner wrote that they had been selected in the application after dreaming that Ha Jung-woo wrote them a handwritten letter. Ha Jung-woo shared the post on his own social media and replied, "I will write one for you again." The details of the winning account remain the poster's claim, but Ha Jung-woo's brief response left a lasting impression on the public.

Seo Yu-jung's lottery anecdote now sits on top of that earlier memory. It was not an exaggerated story claiming that Ha Jung-woo had provided lottery numbers. Instead, it was a grounded, everyday joke: he appeared in a dream, and a small win followed. That made the scene easy for viewers to enjoy without taking it too seriously.

For Seo Yu-jung, the exchange was more than simple small talk. Through YouTube, she has been loosely sharing parts of her daily life and personal relationships, and this episode was carried by her longtime friendship with Hyun Young.

Ha Jung-woo's name became the link connecting the two women's memories and jokes, while last year's subscription anecdote gave the joke a recognizable background. The verifiable facts are clear: Seo Yu-jung said she won 50,000 won in the lottery after Ha Jung-woo appeared in her dream, and Ha Jung-woo briefly responded last year to a post about being selected in the housing application.

In the end, the scene showed less about who earned how much money and more about how one actor's name can move through coincidence and humor to become another piece of content. Because the line came out of a real conversation rather than a manufactured setup, it gave the laughter in <Yujeong and Jujeong> a lighter, more natural feel.
