"I have lost my parents and other family members, my husband is my only family, and since we met, we have had difficult moments together and shared happy moments," his wife said in the letter. Losing him was unimaginable pain for me. ”

"My husband made a mistake and he knew that these actions could not be forgiven, but he did not act improperly for selfish reasons, and I think he was not in a healthy state of mind at the time." Suwon's wife said.

Suwon's wife mentioned that her husband's busy work, such as being available 24 hours a day, said, "His work is more difficult than most people think, and even when he reaches the limits of his body and mind, he still tries to support and protect his family, and I regret very much that I didn't support him better at that time, and I didn't perceive his pain." ”

"My husband is a kind man who is not the kind of person who will deceive or hurt others, he is a thoughtful and compassionate person, I believe he will not make the same mistake again, he will face up to his actions and reflect deeply," Suwon's wife said. ”
