For all you ROK Heads living in Korea a highly successful woman is available:
The eldest daughter of Samsung Electronics Co. Chairman Lee Kun-hee is going through divorce proceedings, the company said Saturday.
Ending a 15-year marriage, Lee Bu-jin, 44, filed for divorce mediation with her 46-year-old husband, Im Woo-jae, at the Seongnam branch of Suwon District Court on Wednesday, according to the company.
Mediation during divorce is a way of finding solutions to issues such as child custody and spousal support without a formal trial. When an agreement is not reached amicably, a divorce trial can take place.
The younger Lee currently heads Hotel Shilla, the group’s hotel unit, while Im serves as the vice-president of Samsung Electro-Mechanics Co.
Born in 1968, Im joined Samsung C&T in 1995 and met the younger Lee in May of that year while performing extension work. The two married in 1999 and have one son. [Yonhap]
