Koo Jun Yup is currently facing a difficult time following the loss of his wife, Barbie Hsu. Chinese media outlets recently shared updates on his condition, revealing that he has been grieving intensely. Since laying Barbie Hsu to rest, Koo Jun Yup has withdrawn from the public eye, shedding about 12 kilograms and reportedly crying daily.

To support Koo Jun Yup during this challenging period, Barbie's younger sister, Dee Hsu, and her family have been offering him regular dinners. Bereft of close family members in Taiwan, Koo Jun Yup has been dealing with profound sorrow on his own, with only one friend for company.

Sources indicate that Koo Jun Yup has put a pause on his activities and is focusing on creating a statue in memory of his late wife. Although the statue is still a work in progress, a space has already been designated for it at Jinbaoshan Cemetery.

The tragic love story between Koo Jun Yup and Barbie Hsu began in 1998 but saw them part ways after a year. Following Barbie's marriage and subsequent divorce from Chinese businessman Wang Xiaofei in 2021, Koo Jun Yup rekindled his relationship with her. They remarried in 2022, only for Barbie to unexpectedly pass away due to acute pneumonia during a trip to Japan on February 2, leaving fans devastated.

Amidst these heartbreaking events, Koo Jun Yup's activities have been halted, with promises of unwavering support from various brands.
