Singer Koo Jun-yeop expressed deep sorrow and anger while announcing the passing of his wife, the late Taiwanese actress Seo Hee-won.
On the 6th, Koo Jun-yeop shared his heartfelt feelings on his social media, saying, "My angel has returned to heaven." However, he strongly mentioned that "devil-like people have begun to slander our family and my love" without even allowing time for mourning.
"It feels like my insides are being torn apart in sorrow"... Shocked by endless malicious rumors
Koo Jun-yeop candidly revealed that he is experiencing extreme feelings of loss after saying goodbye to Seo Hee-won, stating, "I am spending time that feels like my insides are being torn apart in indescribable sorrow and pain."

However, he expressed fear over the ongoing negative public opinion and speculation, saying, "I am afraid to think that such bad people really exist in the world... Can’t you just let our Hee-won rest in peace?" He earnestly hoped that the rumors and unnecessary controversies surrounding the deceased would come to an end.
Expanding to the issue of the late Seo Hee-won's inheritance? Koo Jun-yeop: "I will transfer all inheritance to my mother-in-law"
Following the sudden death of the deceased, controversies surrounding her inheritance have not ceased. In this regard, Koo Jun-yeop stated, "All of the inheritance is something that Hee-won worked hard to gather to protect her beloved family during her lifetime, so I plan to give all rights regarding it to my mother-in-law."
He also announced legal measures to protect Seo Hee-won's children, stating, "I will take legal action to ensure that the children's rights are protected until they become adults, so that bad people cannot touch them." Through this, Koo Jun-yeop expressed a strong will to protect the deceased's family and block unnecessary controversies surrounding the inheritance.

"Devil-like people" strong remarks... Will he take legal action?
As Koo Jun-yeop directly used the strong expression "devil-like people" to reveal his discomfort, the possibility of a strong response in the future is increasing. Currently, various speculative reports related to Seo Hee-won's death are continuing in Taiwan and China, and some negative reactions towards Koo Jun-yeop are also emerging. Accordingly, it seems likely that he will prepare for legal action.
In fact, Koo Jun-yeop has previously taken a firm stance against malicious rumors about his family, so attention is focused on whether he will block malicious public opinion through legal measures this time as well.
"Hee-won, rest in peace"... Koo Jun-yeop's final promise
In conclusion, Koo Jun-yeop expressed his deep sorrow over losing the deceased, saying, "The time I spent with Hee-won is a precious and invaluable gift that cannot be exchanged for anything in the world."
He also stated, "I believe that protecting the family that Hee-won loved the most is the last thing I can do," expressing his intention to protect the deceased's family until the end.
The late Seo Hee-won passed away from acute pneumonia while traveling in Japan on the 2nd. Her remains returned to Taiwan on the 5th, and she is spending her last moments with her family without a funeral.
As Koo Jun-yeop expressed strong dissatisfaction with the reality that he is not even allowed a time for mourning, attention is focused on how he will respond in the future.
◇ Below is the full text of Koo Jun-yeop's message
On February 2, 2025, my angel returned to heaven. First of all, I would like to express my deep gratitude to everyone who mourned for Hee-won. Right now, I am going through a time of pain that feels like my insides are being torn apart in indescribable sorrow and pain. I have no strength to say anything, nor do I want to.
However, before the great pain of loss and the time of mourning could pass, devil-like people began to slander our family and my love. Some pretend to be sad while wandering around in the rain, and others are creating fake news about insurance and costs to hurt our family.
I am even afraid to think that such bad people really exist in the world. Can’t you just let our Hee-won rest in peace? I earnestly ask you.
I would like to talk about the precious inheritance that Hee-won left behind. All of that inheritance is something that Hee-won worked hard to gather to protect her beloved family during her lifetime, so I plan to give all rights regarding it to my mother-in-law. I will take legal action to ensure that the children's rights are protected until they become adults, so that bad people cannot touch them.
The time I spent with Hee-won is a precious and invaluable gift that cannot be exchanged for anything in the world. I believe that protecting the family that Hee-won loved the most is the last thing I can do. Lastly, I would like to bow my head once again in gratitude to everyone who loved and mourned for our Hee-won.
- Hee-won's eternal love, Jun-jun -
