[Sportschosun Park A-ram] A woman identified as the former daughter-in-law of singers Hong Seo-beom and Jo Gap-kyung has posted a message urging their son to pay child support.
On the 4th, A posted on her personal account, "Send the child support," and added, "He saw it and ignored it," expressing her frustration.
Earlier, Civil Division 1 (Family Affairs) of the Daejeon Family Court ruled partially in favor of A in an appeals trial on the damages suit she filed against Hong Seo-beom and Jo Gap-kyung's son, B, over the breakdown of their common-law marriage.
A filed the lawsuit in 2024, claiming that the common-law relationship had broken down because of B's infidelity. She alleged that, during the early stages of her pregnancy, B continued an inappropriate relationship with a fellow teacher who worked at the same school.
The trial court ordered B to pay 30 million won in damages and 800,000 won a month in child support. However, A appealed the ruling and claimed that Hong Seo-beom and Jo Gap-kyung also stood by and did nothing despite knowing about their son's affair.
Even after the appeals ruling, A said on her account, "Even if I receive the damages, I may end up owing more because of the money I gave as an investment," adding, "The child support amount has not changed, while the other side is still appearing on TV and going to school as usual."
