Following the death of Seo Hee-won, the debate surrounding her inheritance and the custody of her children continues, and the late artist's mother has directly spoken out.
On the 28th, the overseas media Next Apple exclusively reported that the late Seo Hee-won's mother, Hwang Chun-mae (Hwang Chun-mei), officially addressed the conflict over her daughter's inherited assets and the custody of her two grandchildren.
According to the report, Hwang Chun-mae said, "It is not true that I am arguing about inheritance matters with Seo Hee-won's ex-husband Wang Shao-bi (Wang Xiaopei). I am now of an old age and overwhelmed by the sorrow of losing my daughter. As long as the children are well taken care of, that is enough for me," indicating that she has no intention of engaging in legal disputes.
Additionally, Hwang Chun-mae is reported to have shown tears while saying, "Whether it is property or custody, he can take whatever he wants. I only miss my daughter."
In response to these statements, some local opinions have emerged suggesting that Seo Hee-won's mother may be considering transferring the custody of her grandchildren to Wang Shao-bi.
Moreover, speculation has arisen that Seo Hee-won's family and Wang Shao-bi have reached an agreement regarding the distribution of her inheritance. In fact, Hwang Chun-mae had recently appeared to be in strong opposition to Wang Shao-bi, preparing for a lawsuit over inheritance and custody.
As the controversy over Seo Hee-won's inheritance and custody issues continues, attention is focused on what impact her mother's direct statement will have.
Meanwhile, Seo Hee-won married Chinese businessman Wang Shao-bi and had two children, but after divorcing in 2021, she remarried Koo Jun-yeob the following year.
Seo Hee-won passed away due to pneumonia caused by the flu on the 2nd of last month while traveling in Japan with her family. As attention turns to her inheritance alongside her death, Koo Jun-yeob stated on social media, "I will talk about the precious legacy that Hee-won left behind. All of that legacy was earned through her hard work to protect her beloved family during her lifetime, so I plan to give all my rights to my mother-in-law."
Additionally, he mentioned, "I will take legal action to ensure that the children’s rights are protected through a lawyer so that they are safeguarded until they become adults, to prevent bad people from interfering. The time I spent with Hee-won was a precious and invaluable gift that I would not trade for anything else in the world."
