SKグループのチェ・テウォン会長と元妻のノ・ソヨン氏の間で争われている注目の離婚訴訟について、控訴審の裁判所は水曜日、追加の調停期日を設けることを決定した。ソウル高裁は、双方の立場を確認するための1時間の審理を経てこの決定に至った。
今回の審理は、最高裁が昨年、離婚とチェ氏によるノ氏への慰謝料支払いを確定させる一方で、財産分与に関する判決を破棄し、審理を差し戻したことを受けて行われた。10月、最高裁はチェ氏に対し約1兆3800億ウォンの財産分与を命じた控訴審判決を破棄していた。
最高裁は、ノ氏の父である元大統領がチェ氏の父親に流したとされる300億ウォンの裏金に関する認定を否定した。一方で、離婚そのものとチェ氏による20億ウォンの慰謝料支払いは確定させた。
ノ氏は裁判所への到着時、記者団からの質問には応じなかった。チェ氏は公判に出席せず、弁護団のみが出廷した。二人は1988年に結婚し、3人の子供がいる。この訴訟は2015年から続いている。

Former President Yoon Suk Yeol and his wife Kim Keon Hee faced separate trials at the Seoul Central District Court on Tuesday over corruption allegations, the second such instance. Correctional officials arranged their appearances to avoid crossing paths, as they did not meet during a similar court date in November.
A shaman known for close ties to former first lady Kim Keon Hee has appealed a court ruling sentencing him to six years in prison for accepting bribes from the Unification Church. The Seoul Central District Court convicted Jeon Seong-bae, better known as Geonjin, of colluding with Kim to receive goods worth 80 million won ($55,000) in 2022, along with other offenses. Special counsel Min Joong-ki's team has also appealed the ruling, which acquitted him of violating the Political Funds Act.
