Barbie Hsu and DJ Koo Will Finally Meet in Person
With so many questions about her marriage, Barbie was recently interviewed by Taiwanese media Apple Daily. She revealed that after her divorce, she and DJ Koo would have video chats everyday. As only family members can enter Taiwan during the pandemic, getting married was the only way for them to meet. She also said, “I won’t have a wedding ceremony again, I won’t have more kids, the family and kids are very touched.”
According to reports, DJ Koo has already registered their marriage in Korea as Barbie Hsu didn’t need to be physically present. On March 9, he was spotted landing in Taiwan where he will have to undergo quarantine for 10 days before he can meet Barbie Hsu and her family. However, Barbie’s mother seems to have shared her frustrations about the flash marriage saying her daughter won’t be living in Korea.
