Kwon Hyuk-bin Ordered $1.87B Divorce Pay | Global News

A jaw-dropping $1.87 billion divorce payout just shattered South Korea’s record — Kwon Hyuk-bin, founder of gaming behemoth Smilegate, is ordered to pay his ex-wife Lee a staggering 2.55 trillion won. The case, rooted in claims she funded the company’s early days and raised their kids for two decades, pits her emotional arguments against his legal defense that she never contributed financially. With Smilegate’s hits like CrossFire and Lost Ark raking in billions, the settlement dwarfs the previous record — which itself was overturned by the Supreme Court. While this ruling stands for now, both parties can still appeal, turning this high-stakes personal drama into a legal chess match with global implications.
