South Korean AI Chip Tycoon Appeals Record R10,7 Billion Divorce Ruling
The court cut the award from 1.38 trillion won after rejecting claims tied to Roh Soh-yeong’s father, former President Roh Tae-woo.
- On Saturday, SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won appealed a South Korean court ruling ordering him to pay 944 billion won in property division to his former wife, Roh Soh-yeong.
- The Seoul High Court handed down the ruling in late July after the Supreme Court sent the case back for review last October, finalizing the divorce and a 2 billion won alimony payment.
- This decision reduced a 1.38 trillion won award made in 2024 after the Supreme Court rejected the inclusion of alleged funds from Roh's father, former President Roh Tae-woo, as a legally protected contribution.
- Legal experts see little chance of the ruling being overturned because the Supreme Court already reviewed the case when it returned the matter to the lower court in October last year.
- Originating from a 2017 divorce filing, this closely watched case has drawn attention as the AI boom significantly increased the value of Chey's semiconductor assets within the conglomerate.
