Singer Koo Jun-yeop has shown his commitment to protecting his late wife, Seo Hee-won, while also safeguarding his family amidst false rumors and controversies.
On the 6th, Koo Jun-yeop expressed his anger on social media, stating, “Some walk around pretending to be sad while getting wet in the rain, and others create fake news to hurt our family.” This appears to be aimed at Seo Hee-won's ex-husband, Wang Su-bi (Wang Xiao-fei).
Wang Su-bi was seen walking in the rain for 30 minutes, shedding tears after hearing the news of Seo Hee-won's passing. However, some local media and netizens criticized this as a “media-conscious performance.”
Additionally, rumors regarding funeral expenses, charter flight costs, and housing loans related to Seo Hee-won's funeral have sparked further controversy. In response, Seo Hee-won's younger sister, Seo Hee-je (Xu Shidi), refuted the false claims, stating, “Our family has covered all the funeral and charter flight costs.”
Meanwhile, Koo Jun-yeop announced that he would forgo the inheritance of 120 billion won (estimated by local media) left by Seo Hee-won, saying, “Protecting Hee-won’s family is the last thing I need to do.”
Despite the falsehoods and controversies, Koo Jun-yeop's loyalty in protecting the family of the late Seo Hee-won resonates deeply.
