The husband of late Taiwanese actress Barbie “Big S” Hsu Shi-yuan has pledged to take legal action to protect her children “from the wicked” and offer his share from her hard-earned inheritance to his mother-in-law.

In a post on his Instagram page on Thursday night, South Korean rapper Koo Jun-yup, also known as “DJ Koo”, broke his silence to mourn his wife who died at the age of 48. Her family on Monday confirmed the superstar’s sudden death in Japan from a flu-triggered pneumonia.

“I am currently in a state of indescribable sadness and pain, with a heart as if being cut by a knife, and my insides are torn apart. I have no strength to speak, nor do I want to speak,” Koo wrote in both Chinese and Korean.

Koo rekindled his relationship with Hsu, whom he dated previously, in 2022, and they married after the actress ended her decade-long marriage with Chinese businessman Wang Xiaofei.

Hsu and Wang, who had a daughter and a son together, had acrimonious exchanges on social media and filed lawsuits following their separation.

In his post Koo said there were individuals tarnishing his family, with some pretending to mourn while walking in the rain.
