The drama is over, Seo Taiji and Lee Ji Ah settle their divorce

[kotetsu.livejournal.com]

Lee Ji Ah’s agency Key East announced through a public release, stating “We offer our most sincere apologies to those who were heavily concerned in regards to the lawsuit between Seo Taiji and Lee Ji Ah. Both parties have amicably reached an agreement and finalized their divorce on July 29th at 10AM KST.”

They continued, “Because the Hague Convention needed the specific divorce procedures in writing in order to finalize their divorce in America, and because we also wanted to prevent any false rumors about their divorce from spreading in the future, we have decided to publicly release their official divorce settlement in full detail with the consent of both parties.”


The divorce settlement between Seo Taiji and Lee Ji Ah is as follows:

1. The plaintiff and the defendant are now divorced. Any marital relations between the two have now been terminated, however, in order to prevent any future dispute arising due to a defect in law, we are reviewing the procedure once more.

2. In relation to the divorce settlement, the plaintiff [Seo Taiji] will not financially support the defendant [Lee Ji Ah], nor has the prosecutor agreed to receive monetary support.

3. The agencies of both the plaintiff and the defendant will not take the following actions:

a) The agencies of both parties will not request, petition, accuse or demand responsibility from one another for anything in relation to their previous married relationship, or any issues deriving from it.

b) Agencies of both parties shall have a mutual respect for one another, as they will not charge accusations, petition, criticize or spread false information regarding one another’s personal families and agencies.

c) Both the plaintiff and the defendant will not share or sell materials that are in relation to their previous marriage including all publications, displays, and albums.

4. In the event that either the plaintiff or the defendant publicizes any material related to their previous marriage, this will be considered a breach of settlement and the breacher will pay the penalty of 200,000,000₩ to the opposite party.

5. The plaintiff will cancel all other previous demands and the defendant agrees to comply.

6. Both the plaintiff and the defendant will each be responsible to pay their own legal fees.

What about the children?

Really?! What an absurd thing to make up.

Was it really such a mess? They managed to hide it up until recently tbqh...A messy divorce would drag the participants through the mud alot more and the actual issues would be publicized in tabloids and the like. The one who got hurt the most was Lee Ji Ah (image-wise), and it was more from the fact she was dating that other celeb and didn't tell him about her former marriage. All in all, this was quite clean. I hope they both recover and live well.

I thought I read in one of the first articles that proceedings had been going on for a year, though? And supposedly they couldn't agree upon the first settlement that was suggested, I think . . . anyways, divorce sucks so I'm glad it's over for them. I think Seo Tai Ji will be fine, but I hope Lee Ji Ah's career can rebound!

Ugly and old he might be, but he is still the only few people in Korea entertainment scene that actually has musical talent.
Get over his looks, he is not like your oppas or unnies, he don't sell looks, he sells original music masterpieces.

I love you. You handled that much better than I could.

[ababobaby.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't think he's ugly at all, but IA with the rest of it.

[plinkin.livejournal.com]

If that's ugly, I'm all about the ugly. He may not look better than some of the plasticized younger idols, but he's better looking that I'll ever hope to catch. Don't know about his personality but he's a respectable looking man, in my opinion.

Divorce is the new thing already.

[theedqueen.livejournal.com]

I meant more along the lines of the whole celebs getting divorced aspect of it.

[onichick.livejournal.com]

I still want to know how that man is aging backwards o_O

Im glad its over with. Divorce is never fun, spcially in Korean entertainment world.

[o-o-mai-o-o.livejournal.com]

Will turn into a k-drama in two years.

[shadowkeeper.livejournal.com]

Seo Taiji is one of my favourite rockers out there, and I just wish he'd release stuff more often.
Tae Wang Sa Shin Ki is still my absolute favourite k-drama ever, and Lee JiAh was a large part of why I loved it.

So, now that this drama if over with, I do want to see more of them in the future.

And seriously, how old is that Taiji picture? Because that man does not age and it's getting crazy.
