After Barbie Hsu’s death and her ashes were brought back to Taiwan, her family initially planned to perform a tree burial – a popular form of burial in Taiwan to protect the environment.
However, according to Next Apple, Koo Jun Yup (also known as DJ Koo) – Barbie Hsu’s husband – wanted to find a more solemn burial place so that his family could visit and pay their respects.
DJ Koo shared that he understood Barbie Hsu’s family’s wishes. However, according to Korean funeral customs, having a permanent burial place makes it easier for relatives to visit and express their condolences. Therefore, DJ Koo and his family agreed to find a suitable burial site instead of the original burial plan.
“I want to bury Barbie Hsu in a private place where her family can visit at any time. I decided to re-select the burial site after discussing it with her family,” the artist shared with Next Apple.
In addition to the burial issue, the division of Barbie Hsu’s assets after her death has also attracted much attention. According to Taiwan’s Civil Law, the first-line heirs include her husband and two children. Depending on the case, DJ Koo can receive from 1/6 to 1/3 of the assets.
However, some sources said that Barbie Hsu and DJ Koo had a prenuptial agreement, which stipulated that DJ Koo would give up his inheritance rights. However, this information has not been officially confirmed by Barbie Hsu and DJ Koo’s families.
After Barbie Hsu passed away, DJ Koo shared on his personal page that he announced to give up his inheritance rights and let his mother-in-law have full authority to decide.
Excerpt from Barbie Hsu’s husband’s share: “… I also want to talk about the precious assets that Hy Vien left behind. All of those assets are the sweat and tears that Hy Vien worked hard to accumulate to protect her beloved family. Therefore, I decided to give all the management rights of my portion to my mother-in-law.
For the children, I will ask a lawyer to take legal measures to protect their rights until they grow up, not letting any bad people touch them.
The time I spent with Barbie Hsu is a precious gift that cannot be exchanged for anything. I believe that the last thing I can do for her is to protect the people she loves the most.”
