“Yoon Jung-hee was forcibly separated.”
The fact of’Yoon Jung-hee petition’ became complicated
It is a part of an article sent by JoongAng Ilbo on the 8th by actor Yoon Jung-hee (real name Son Mi-ja)’s younger brother Son Byeong-woo, who is under 5 years old. He refuted the’position on the public petition for neglect of Yoon Jung-hee’ announced on the 7th by Vinchero, the agency of pianist Paik Kun-woo, who is the spouse of Yoon Jeong-hee. Mr. Son Byeong-woo said, “Yoon Jung-hee left the house where he had lived for decades with Paik Kun-woo and is living alone in another house.”
Yoon Jeong-hee has five brothers and sisters under her hand. Among them, Son Byeong-woo and three sons Mi-hyeon and Byeong-wook failed to obtain the guardianship status of Jeong-hee Yoon at the High Court in Paris, France in November last year. Then, on the 5th of this month, a rumor was posted on the Cheongwadae public petition bulletin board saying, “Please save the movie star *** who is severing from the outside.” On the 7th of this month, Paik, through his agency Binchero, refuted that he was “a claim without grounds” and that “I am living under the warm care of my family.” Yoon Jeong-hee’s younger brothers claim that this refutation is a “complete lie.”
The issue of the case of’Neglect of Yoon Jung-hee’ was summarized by summarizing the arguments of Sohn Byeong-Woo, Son Mi-Hyun and Byeong-wook’s JoongAng Ilbo, phone interview on the 8th, and Paik Kun-Woo’s position.
Among Yoon Jeong-hee’s younger brothers, Son Mi-hyun (second of six siblings) living in France said in a telephone interview, “France is different from Korea, and there is no such thing as a caregiver. No one is stuck for 24 hours, and if it is, it is very expensive.” It is claimed that Yoon Jeong-hee, who suffers from Alzheimer’s and diabetes, is living alone without a caregiver. Son Byeong-woo said, “I called my sister’s birthday last summer, but it wasn’t working.” This means that the younger siblings have not recently met Yoon Jung-hee.
In a refutation sent to the JoongAng Ilbo, Son Byeong-woo raised suspicion that Yoon Jeong-hee moved to her daughter’s next door rather than the house where she lived with Paik Kun-woo, and wrote the expression’forced separation’. In addition, he said, “I’m avoiding Hansako’s wife,” and the younger siblings argued that “even from the early days when Yoon Jung-hee settled in France, it was dark and uneasy to call.”
Regarding Yoon Jung-hee’s residence, Paik Kun-woo said, “We are allowing people to live in the house right next to their daughter Paik Jin-hee’s apartment under the warm care of Paik’s family and a caregiver designated by the court.” In an interview with the JoongAng Ilbo in 2019, Baek Jin-hee said, “I found my mother’s house in the house next to me, and there is a nursing man who specializes in Alzheimer’s among my friends, and they are helping me.”
Then, why did you find a new home? An acquaintance of the couple Paik Kun-woo and Yoon Jeong-hee said in a phone call with the JoongAng Ilbo on the 8th, “We came to judge that Paik could not live in one house. I heard that I needed a new place to take care of Yoon Jeong-hee.”
In November of last year, the decision of the Paris High Court that refused to grant the guardianship of his three younger brother Yoon Jeong-hee said, “(Jung-hee Yoon) lives in a safe and familiar environment, and enjoys very comfortable conditions without entering a nursing home for the elderly. In addition, he said, “It is not appropriate to live in the home of (Yoon Jeong-hee’s) sister, considering her health status.”
As such, the French court judged the opinions of Paik Kun-woo and Paik Jin-hee as true rather than Yoon Jung-hee’s younger brother. However, Son Byeong-wook, the fifth of the six brothers and sisters Yoon Jeong-hee, argued in a phone call on the 8th that “it was an unfair trial from the beginning.” “Every country has its own protection. Baek Jin-hee is a French citizen. However, the three people (brothers) who applied for guardianship are foreign nationals.”
Yoon Jeong-hee owns an apartment in Yeouido, Seoul. A realtor in Yeouido explained, “Yun Jeong-hee purchased two 24 pyeong and 36 pyeong in the early 2000s, and rented 24 pyeong, and Yoon Jeong-hee’s youngest brother lives on 36 pyeong.” He added, “The price for apartments is about 1.8 billion and 2.2 billion won, respectively, and the rent for cheonsei is low because it is an old apartment.” The younger sister who lives in Yoon Jeong-hee’s apartment fell out of this lawsuit.
Yoon Jeong-hee’s younger siblings post a national petition following the loss of a French lawsuit, which is sometimes pointed out as a cause of financial problems. But they argued, “It’s never about money.” Mi-Hyun Son said, “There are no financial problems,” and Byeong-wook Son said, “Our brothers have no problems living (by themselves).” Son Byeong-wook said, “Two brothers are in the US and one is in France. Live regardless of my sister’s money My younger brother in Seoul is busy with his work, so he has no time to pay attention to this job.” Also, “How can you aim for property in the name of a brother who has an immediate family member? Is it possible or not?” he asked. Mi-Hyun Son emphasized, “All we want is the health of our big sister (Jung-hee Yoon) and a comfortable life.”
Yoon Jung-hee’s three younger brothers started a lawsuit for guardians in the Paris District Court in France after Yoon Jung-hee moved to France in 2019, and were defeated twice. This month, it made an appeal to the Blue House National Petition. Mr. Son Byung-wook said, “There are currently no plans to take legal action in Korea in the future.” The reason is that “I live longer in the United States than in Korea, and I don’t know much about Korea, and I don’t do it because I’m looking for wealth.”
Mr. Son Byung-wook said, “I was worried about my sister’s life and wanted to take good care of her. He said, “I would have filed a national petition if I couldn’t.” Mi-Hyun Son also said, “We are trying to speak carefully because (Geon-Woo Paik’s side) is so different,” he said. “I think it’s best for my sister to come to Korea and live with her younger siblings.” Paik Kun-woo is also preparing a schedule to start a recital in Daejeon on the 26th, returning to Korea on the 11th, without planning an additional position as of the 8th.
