His wife Lee Sun Ja has deposited a colossal amount of money in secrecy at a bank branch in Taehyon-dong, Seoul since November last year to live a life of luxury with the income from monthly interests amounting to tens of millions of won.

Chun has refused to accept the demand of people from all social strata to have the property he got through corruption and irregularities during the tenure of his office recollected, claiming that he has just a little property.

However, the fact went public that his eldest son set up a bogus company abroad and has operated it for six years. The illegal actions of his wife were revealed this time, giving the lie to his claim.
