That family court had also rejected Ms Roh's request that she be given a portion of Mr Chey's SK shares. This was overturned on Thursday, when the High Court found that the shares should be considered joint property. In its verdict, the court stated that "it was reasonable to rule that, as his wife, Roh played a role in increasing the value of SK Group and Chey's business activity". The court put Mr Chey's wealth at around 4tn won, meaning Ms Roh - with whom Mr Chey had three children - would take an estimated 35%.
