Koo Jun-yup, Guarding His Late Wife Seo Hee-won’s Grave for 5 Months... A Touching True Story of 'Eternal Love'

Singer and DJ Koo Jun-yup is touching many with his unwavering love for his late wife Seo Hee-won.

According to local Taiwanese social media and eyewitness accounts on the 28th, Koo Jun-yup has been visiting his late wife Seo Hee-won’s grave every day for the past 5 months since she suddenly passed away in February. The released photos show Koo Jun-yup sitting in front of Seo Hee-won’s grave, staring blankly at a framed picture, leaving a deep impression.

In particular, it has been reported that Koo Jun-yup visited his wife’s grave even on days of heavy rain, further highlighting his unwavering love and dedication. Local witnesses stated, 'Seeing him come at the same time every day and sit quietly is so touching,' adding, 'It seems to show what true love is.'

The love story of Koo Jun-yup and Seo Hee-won is dramatic in itself. The two met in Taiwan in 1998 and developed their love, but due to the difficulties of a long-distance relationship and opposition from their agencies, they broke up after a year. However, after more than 20 years, they reunited in 2021 after Seo Hee-won divorced her ex-husband and got married in 2022.

Seo Hee-won was a top star who received great love for her role as Shan Chai in the Taiwanese version of 'Boys Over Flowers,' titled 'Meteor Garden.' She suddenly passed away in February from influenza accompanied by pneumonia during a family trip to Japan, at the age of 48.

Currently, Koo Jun-yup is said to be preparing to establish a residence near Jinbao Mountain, where Seo Hee-won is resting. This is interpreted as his determination to stay by his wife’s side for a lifetime, reminding many of the meaning of 'true love.'
