Koo Jun-yeob, from the group Coolron, is further saddening netizens with his recent struggles after losing his wife. Recently, local media such as Taiwan's ETtoday have reported that Koo Jun-yeob has suspended activities indefinitely after bidding farewell to his wife, the late Seohuiwon.
According to reports, Koo Jun-yeob has canceled a flash mob event scheduled for February in Taiwan and a beauty clinic opening event planned for March. The representative noted, "We suggested that Koo Jun-yeob halt activities interacting with the public as we understand his grief," expressing a desire for him to have the time to mourn his wife, Seohuiwon, and overcome his sorrow. Local media have stated that "as of now, it is unclear when he will resume work, as he needs to wait until the internal pain is healed before considering work."
According to several accounts who have seen Koo Jun-yeob, it was reported that he appeared gaunt after his wife's death. In particular, during Seohuiwon's funeral, Koo Jun-yeob was observed to have lost around 6 kg. Given that Koo Jun-yeob typically had a muscular build, it is likely that the noticeable change in appearance was significant.
Koo Jun-yeob revealed his painful emotions on personal social media after Seohuiwon's death, stating, "My angel has returned to heaven" and "I am going through a time of anguish that feels like my insides are being torn apart by an indescribable sadness and pain," moving many hearts. Additionally, several recent Taiwanese media reports have conveyed that Koo Jun-yeob has been weeping daily since bidding farewell to the late Seohuiwon, intensifying the sadness.
Insiders have reported that "Koo Jun-yeob cannot hold back tears when talking about Seohuiwon. His eyes are so swollen that it is difficult for him to receive treatment. He is also struggling to eat, resulting in significant weight loss," which has left those observing him deeply affected.
Netizens are voicing support for Koo Jun-yeob, saying, "I support Koo Jun-yeob; I hope he can compose himself and return," and "Although it may be difficult right now, I hope he overcomes and finds his daily life again," along with, "Didn’t he say he would fight for Seohuiwon's family? I hope he doesn’t stay immersed in sorrow for long. Especially at times like this, he needs to grow stronger," highlighting the ongoing support for Koo Jun-yeob, who has effectively suspended activities indefinitely.
Meanwhile, Seohuiwon passed away on the morning of the 2nd due to complications from pneumonia caused by the flu while traveling in Japan with family. She was 48 years old. Some have mentioned sepsis in relation to her photo. This tragedy was particularly heartbreaking given that it occurred just before their third wedding anniversary.
Koo Jun-yeob addressed various rumors related to the late Seohuiwon, stating, "Demonic people have begun to slander our family and my love." He particularly noted that regarding Seohuiwon's estate amounting to 120 billion won, all of her assets were saved through her hard work to protect her beloved family during her lifetime, so he intends to grant all authority regarding that to his mother-in-law. Additionally, he plans to take legal measures to protect the children’s rights through a lawyer until they reach adulthood, ensuring that they are not touched by bad people.
