According to Taiwanese media, including the Free Times, the family, including Koo Joon-yeop and Seo Hee-won's mother, departed from Haneda Airport in Japan on a chartered business plane called Vistajet on the 5th and arrived at Taipei Songshan Airport in northern Taiwan at 3 p.m. that day.
Koo Jun-yeop, who was holding a pink urn containing his wife's remains in his arms at the time, asked the reporters who flocked before boarding the vehicle to cover it with an umbrella so that his wife would not be surprised.
The remains of the deceased are likely to be stored at home. Local media reported that `because my younger brother Seo Hee-je wants to see my sister every day and wants to talk to her when she has time.' `Although I am worried about my younger brother's condition, my family also made this decision because Seo Hee-won did not want to be alone in the chest bone hall.'
Seo Hee-won's younger sister, broadcaster Seo Hee-je, said in a statement released through her manager that `My sister came home in peace,' adding that `I will not hold a farewell ceremony in respect of her quiet and serious personality.' My whole family is grateful for your love for my sister."
Seo Hee-won, who became a star in Asia after playing the Taiwanese version of the drama `Boys Over Flowers,' married Wang Xiao-pei in 2011 and had one son and one daughter. But they divorced in 2021, and have been fighting in court over custody and property division.
After 20 years, he reunited with Koo Joon-yeop and became an official couple in 2022. The two met in 1998 and are said to have been dating for a year. Although Seo Hee-won suddenly died of pneumonia after contracting the flu during a family trip to Japan on the 3rd, leading to a sad bereavement after three years of marriage.
