Unexpected updates on singer Hong Seobum, who recently faced difficulties due to his son's affair controversy, have been reported.
Earlier, on the 11th, a video titled "Our Neighborhood Public Opinion Report Part 3 - Yongin Suji" was uploaded to comedian Kim Gura's YouTube channel 'Gri-Gura'.
In the video, Kim Gura stated, "In our previous video, we covered house prices in Ilsan Siksadong, and it received 200,000 views. Recently, while exercising at a neighborhood community center, I met Hong Seobum. He praised the broadcast about Siksadong and gave me a thumbs-up."
Hong Seobum and his wife Jo Gab-kyung recently became the subject of public scrutiny due to an unfortunate issue involving their son, Mr. B's affair. Earlier this March, Mr. B's former daughter-in-law, Ms. A, filed a lawsuit seeking damages for the dissolution of a de facto marriage against Mr. B. She claimed that in September 2024, while she was pregnant, Mr. B's infidelity led to the breakdown of their marital relationship.
The court ruled in both the first and second instances that Mr. B was at fault, ordering him to pay 30 million won in compensation and 800,000 won monthly for child support. However, since Ms. A appealed the verdict by submitting a petition to the Supreme Court, the final decision now rests with the Supreme Court.
As the controversy intensified, Hong Seobum and Jo Gab-kyung bowed their heads and stated, "We will strictly guide our son's legal representative to ensure that obligations such as child support and compensation are fulfilled promptly. We fully respect the other party's decisions regarding the birth and upbringing of our granddaughter and will closely monitor our son to ensure he fulfills his responsibilities as a father until the end."
However, the issue of child support remained unresolved. Until July, Ms. A posted open criticism on her social media, writing "Send child support," directly targeting Mr. B.
Meanwhile, Hong Seobum is scheduled to appear on stage at the Park Jung-hee Jeon (President) Memorial Concert on November 20 at 7 p.m.
