During a trip to Japan on the occasion of the Lunar New Year 2025, the famous actress Barbie Hsu (Dai S) died suddenly due to complications of pneumonia after contracting the flu. The family chose Kim Bao Son Cemetery (Xinbei City, Taiwan, China) as her final resting place. This is also the place where Dang Le Quan, Coco Lee, and Cao Di Tuong are buried.

The problem of the actress’s assets has fallen. Barbie Hsu left two real estate: a house worth NT$210 million (nearly VND 163 billion) where her mother lives and a villa worth NT$460 million (VND 365 billion).

Barbie Hsu and her husband – DJ Koo Jun Yeop.

The story is even more troublesome when the Taipei Tin Nghia villa worth NT$460 million that she and DJ Koo (Koo Jun Yeop) used to live in, not only related to inheritance tax but also comes with a mortgage loan of more than NT$1 million per month (about 777 million VND). If no one can afford to pay, the villa can be confiscated by the bank and put up for auction.

According to information on March 8 from Sinchew, during the division, Koo Jun Yeop agreed to continue paying this loan. However, newspaper 163 reported that DJ Koo through a friend, denied the news of taking over the loan of the villa left by Dai S. This person was frustrated, calling the rumors “ridiculous, there is no such thing”. This move made the public suspect that DJ Koo avoided responsibility for his late wife’s property.

If you want to inherit property, you must accept responsibility

Barbie Hsu’s two children are entitled to property, but because they are not yet 18 years old, they still depend on the legal guardian who is their biological father – Uong Tieu Phi. To handle the loan, Uong Tieu Phi needs to make an agreement with Dai S’s mother – Ms. Hoang Xuan Mai. The optimal solution is for all three parties to share the responsibility for repaying the loan. If a party wants to independently own the property, they must ensure full affordability on their own.

If he wants to receive his late wife’s property, DJ Koo has to face many complicated problems.

According to Sanli News, in fact, the division of assets has been handled in advance through lawyers. Since DJ Koo is the sole adult heir, he is also the main person responsible for this loan.

When the reporter contacted Barbie Hsu’s husband’s manager to confirm the information, DJ Koo still did not give a response.

In case DJ Koo refuses, the audience questions who will be the one to pay the loan. Dai S’s two children are not of working age. Her mother is over 70 years old, unable to afford it. Tu Hy De’s sister (Tieu S) almost did not speak out in public about this issue. As for Uong Tieu Phi, he has no reason to continue to bear the loan for his ex-wife.

If he wants to receive his wife’s property, DJ Koo has to face many complicated problems. Inheritance is not only receiving property but also having to bear the responsibilities left by the deceased.

According to the analysis of Taiwanese (Chinese) media, it is estimated that Barbie Hsu’s net worth is up to NT$1 billion (approximately 777 billion VND), and the inheritance tax must be at least more than NT$6 million. The heir must have enough money to pay taxes.

DJ Koo is also responsible for taking care of his children, supporting his mother-in-law and has the right to represent in the lawsuit against Uong Tieu Phi. Once he inherited the property, he also had to bear the related loan. People are waiting for DJ’s move to see if he will let the villa be squeezed into debt and put it up for auction.
