The late Goo Hara's brother has revealed his motive behind taking their birth mother to court.
In an interview with SBS 'One Night' that aired Wednesday afternoon, he revealed, "I didn't want to make noise over my late dongsaeng's estate but the world is so unfair that I felt I had to file a lawsuit to protect her inheritance."
Goo Hara's brother recalled her funeral and stated, "She [birth mother] didn't let our father wear the Sangju uniform [funeral clothes]. I also wanted my mother kicked out of the funeral because I didn't even want her to wear it, but two days later, she appointed a lawyer."
According to the brother, their birth mother demanded 50% of Goo Hara's wealth. He explained, "It was so absurd. It totally unacceptable to look into a lawyer to file a lawsuit for her estate when she abandoned her. I want to protect her inheritance because it the price of my dongsaeng's life. Can someone that abandoned her child also demand the price of her life? Because of her, my father handed over his inheritance rights."
In the meantime, Goo Hara's family is currently in a legal dispute with their birth mother who's demanding 50% of her estate. According to her brother, their birth mother abandoned them when they were young and their father traveled all over the country to make money leaving Goo Hara under the care of their grandmother and brother.
