“It was reported as a common-law marriage… no apology.”

Marriage annulment lawsuit and sister’s molestation complaint

[서울=뉴시스] Reporter Choi Ji-yoon = Former announcer Yoo Young-jae (60) was accused of forcibly molesting actress Sunwoo Eun-sook (64). Seonwoo Eun-suk took this as an opportunity to decide to divorce her, and she filed a lawsuit for annulment of her marriage, saying that she did not even know it was a third marriage. “She admitted that Yoo Young-jae had committed her molestation, but it was more of an excuse,” she said. “She did not apologize even in relation to the common-law marriage, etc.”

On the 23rd, lawyer Noh Jong-eon of Existence Law Firm told Newsis, “There is a transcript of Yoo Young-jae’s allegations of forcible molestation. He admitted that this happened after the molestation,” but added, “Rather than an apology, it was closer to an excuse. This act made him say, ‘I’m sorry, but I made you feel uncomfortable.'” He claimed, “I didn’t mean to give it to him,” and “I did it because he seemed lonely,” but he only made an excuse.

“Initially, Seonwoo Eunsook tried to bury and end (the allegations of molestation against Yoo Youngjae) through divorce,” he said. “Didn’t it become known through media reports that she got married on the 5th, two days after the divorce through mediation, while hiding her common-law marriage? Seonwoo Eunsook had no idea. , This was also revealed on MBN’s ‘Dongchimi’. Afterwards, (Yoo Young-jae) did not express any special apology, but after seeing her say, ‘I will reveal everything when the time comes’ and ‘I have a lot to say,’ I thought, ‘I have to file a lawsuit to cancel the marriage.’ “I made up my mind, and I also filed a complaint against my sister on charges of forcible molestation,” he explained.

Lawyer Noh said, “After the divorce, there has been no communication with Yoo Young-jae. I have never apologized to Seon-woo Eun-sook regarding the common-law marriage, etc.” He added, “Both Seon-woo Eun-sook and her sister are in great psychological shock. Although they are currently recovering, they are still having a hard time. “We will resolve it legally,” he said.

The day before, Seonwoo Eunsook filed a lawsuit to cancel her marriage at the Seongnam Branch of Suwon District Court. In addition, Seonwoo Eunsuk’s older sister filed a complaint against Yoo Youngjae at the Bundang Police Station on charges of forcible molestation. She claimed that she had been subjected to unpleasant physical contact by Yoo Young-jae on five occasions since last year. On this day, Seonwoo Eun-sook’s side said, “She was so shocked that she fainted after hearing about the above damage from A. It was a decisive factor in her decision to divorce Yoo Young-jae.”

On this day, Lee Jin-ho, a former entertainment reporter, also said on the YouTube channel ‘Entertainment Behind President’, “Seonwoo Eun-sook’s older sister stayed at the newlywed house and helped Yoo Young-jae with her household chores, including preparing meals for Yoo Young-jae. In the process, something shocking happened that I can’t even put into words.” “It was a shocking situation to face at the age of over 70, as I went to a psychiatrist alone and took medication,” he explained.

Recently, Seonwoo Eunsuk and Yoo Youngjae broke up their relationship. It has been over a year and six months since the remarriage in October 2022. On the 5th, Sunwoo Eun-sook’s agency, Star It Entertainment, said, “She and Yoo Young-jae divorced by agreement,” and “her reason was personality differences.” Afterwards, rumors of Yoo Young-jae’s common-law marriage and third marriage were raised, and Seonwoo Eun-sook confessed on MBN’s ‘Top Story Show Dongchimi’, “I was legally supposed to be the third wife.” Regarding the suspicion that Yoo Young-jae had been in a common-law relationship with a broadcast writer for a long time before her marriage, she said, “I found out about it after reading her article. (If I had known that) she would not have approved the marriage or registered the marriage after 8 days.” It was said. Yoo Young-jae left Gyeongin Broadcasting’s ‘Yoo Young-jae’s Radio Show’. In a live broadcast on the 19th, she said, “It is no longer shameful to burden her with her private life,” but remained silent regarding the controversy over her private life.
