[Edaily Reporter KYUNG GYEYOUNG ] Seo Ho-jeong (pictured), the second daughter of AMOREPACIFIC CORPORATION Chairman Kyung Bae Suh, has sold a portion of her AMOREPACIFIC CORPORATION shares worth 7.8 billion won. This was done to pay the gift tax on the shares she received as a gift from Chairman Suh last March.
