Previously, Taiwanese media reported an exclusive interview with Huang Chunmei, Barbie Hsu’s mother. During the interview, Huang Chunmei stated, “As long as the children are well taken care of, that’s all that matters. I am old and have no strength left,” and added, “I am heartbroken because my filial daughter has passed away. Please don’t ask baseless questions or add to my sorrow.”  

Regarding her former son-in-law Wang Xiaofei and the dispute over child custody and property division, she said, “Whatever he wants, it’s up to him to take. I only want my daughter. Please don’t let me wake up crying every day.”  

Later, Huang Chunmei took to her personal social media account and posted a cryptic message saying, “He is a liar, and I am a fool,” directly targeting Wang Xiaofei.  

Previously, it was reported that Taiwanese actress Barbie Hsu, wife of Koo Jun-yeop, had suddenly passed away on February 3. According to local reports, Barbie Hsu had traveled to Japan with Koo Jun-yeop for a family vacation, where she contracted influenza, leading to complications from acute pneumonia, which ultimately caused her death.

Koo Jun-yeop expressed his grief, saying, “My angel has returned to heaven. I deeply appreciate those who have mourned Hee-won’s passing,” and added, “As for Barbie’s cherished legacy, everything she worked hard to save for her beloved family will be handed over to my mother-in-law.”  

However, as Barbie Hsu’s assets were estimated at 600 million yuan (approximately 82.3 million USD), local reports suggested that Wang Xiaofei, as the legal guardian of their two children, might have the right to manage two-thirds of the inheritance that Barbie Hsu had received. In response, Koo Jun-yeop stated, “I will take legal measures through a lawyer to ensure that no bad actors can interfere with the children’s rights and that they are protected until they reach adulthood.”  

Additionally, Taiwanese media outlet Sanli News Network (SETN) exclusively reported that all of Barbie’s assets will be taken by the deceased’s spouse, Koo Jun-yeop, and her family, but the children’s legal representative and assets handler will be Wang Xiaofei until they turn 18.

Barbie Hsu and Koo Jun-yeop originally dated for a year in 1998 before parting ways. After Barbie Hsu’s divorce from Wang Xiaofei in 2021, she reunited with Koo Jun-yeop, and they later got married.
