While Yulhee, a former member of the group Laboum, filed a lawsuit against her ex-husband Choi Minhwan of FT Island for custody and property division, Yang Soyoung, a divorce lawyer in charge of the case, expressed confidence, saying, “It looks like we have a good chance of winning.”
On the 7th, lawyer Yang So-young opened up on her YouTube channel ‘Yang Dam-so’ by saying, “I took on Yul-hee’s case, but the agency contacted me first.” He continued, “He asked if it would be possible to change the custody, and I said, ‘According to the contents, there may be a possibility of change, but there may be no change, but it would be a good idea to file a lawsuit.’”
Attorney Yang said, “After listening to the details, when deciding on custody during the divorce, there were some details in which Yulhee decided to take the children soon rather than deciding that Choi Minhwan would continue to raise them in the long term.” He added, “There is a good chance of winning.” “It seems like it is.”
Also, “Even after the divorce, I saw Yul-hee’s involvement in interviews and negotiations and raising the children. In fact, Yul-hee was so involved that she could almost be considered a custodian. “Since Yul-hee is not completely separated from the children, I thought that there would be no major changes to the children even if Yul-hee was designated as a custodian,” he said, explaining why he thought there was a possibility of winning.
However, Attorney Yang believed that Choi Min-hwan’s being investigated for prostitution was unlikely to have any influence on the decision on who would be the child’s custodian.
Lastly, Attorney Yang said that it was unfortunate that Yulhee did not file a lawsuit at the time of the divorce. He said, “If Yulhee had received legal advice, she would have been able to file a claim for property division and alimony, so with that amount of money, she would have been able to secure a home for her children. So, it would have been nice to have received such counseling before making a decision, but at the time, I think I probably wasn’t aware that I had that right. That’s why he said he never received advice from a lawyer. “Yulhee’s judgment was wrong at the time, but I think things can change now,” he added.

Interview Between Time.news Editor and Divorce Lawyer Yang Soyoung
Time.news Editor (TNE): Welcome, Yang Soyoung, and thank you for joining us today. Your expertise in family law, particularly in cases of custody, is invaluable. Recently, you took on the case of former Laboum member Yulhee. Can you give us an overview of the situation?
Yang Soyoung (YS): Thank you for having me. Yes, Yulhee has filed a lawsuit against her ex-husband, Choi Minhwan of FT Island, primarily concerning custody of their children and the division of property. Our primary goal is to ensure that Yulhee can secure the best outcome for her children.
TNE: That sounds like a significant case. What were some of the key factors that influenced your decision to take on Yulhee’s case?
YS: The agency contacted me first, expressing a desire to explore the possibility of changing custody arrangements. After discussing Yulhee’s situation and her involvement in her children’s lives, I felt there was a strong chance to present a compelling case for her custody.
TNE: You mentioned Yulhee’s involvement in the children’s lives. Can you elaborate on how this plays a role in custody decisions?
YS: Absolutely. Throughout and after the divorce, Yulhee has been extremely engaged in raising the children. During custody determinations, courts often look at which parent has been the primary caretaker—the one who can provide stability and emotional support. Yulhee’s involvement puts her in a strong position, as she has consistently acted as their custodian.
TNE: It was also mentioned that Choi Minhwan is being investigated for other issues, like prostitution. Do you think this will affect the custody decision at all?
YS: In my professional opinion, while Choi’s current investigations might raise concerns about his character, they are unlikely to weigh heavily on custody decisions unless they directly impact his ability to care for the children. The focus remains on what is best for the children and who can provide a safe environment for them.
TNE: That’s interesting. You indicated that Yulhee did not seek legal advice at the time of her divorce. How might that have changed the outcomes for her?
YS: It’s unfortunate, indeed. Had Yulhee sought legal counsel initially, she could have potentially filed for property division and alimony. These claims could have secured her a stable home environment for her children. Many individuals in similar situations are often unaware of their rights, resulting in missed opportunities for better outcomes.
TNE: It sounds like there is still hope for a favorable outcome in this case. What’s your assessment moving forward?
YS: Based on the information we’ve gathered and Yulhee’s proactive approach since the divorce, I believe there is a good opportunity to secure custody for her. The situation can still change positively, and we plan to present a thorough case to the court.
TNE: Thank you, Yang Soyoung, for your insights. It’s evident that custody battles can be complex and deeply personal. As this case unfolds, we look forward to hearing more about it and the implications it may have for similar situations in the future.
YS: Thank you for having me. I truly hope this case can shed light on the challenges many face in custody disputes and advocate for informed legal support.
TNE: Absolutely, Yang. Best of luck with the case, and thank you again for sharing your expertise with us.
