Mrs. Son Myeong-soon commemorating Kim Young-sam's graduation from Seoul National University
In 1929, in Jinyeong-eup, Gimhae-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, his father Sang-ho Son and his mother Kim Geun-i[5] 3 daughters of[6] Born as the eldest daughter. Son Myeong-sun's family was a conglomerate that ran a rubber company that was one of the largest in the country. She graduated from the College of Pharmacy at Ewha Womans University , and like Sunja Lee, she met her husband while attending Ewha Womans University. At the time, Ewha Womans University had a policy prohibiting marriage, so if you got married while attending school, you had to drop out of school.[7] Unlike Lee Soon-ja , who attended Ewha Womans University Medical School but dropped out and got married , she hid her marriage from school until the end and eventually graduated.

When I had my first child, I managed to get a pharmacist's license while going through the hardships of wrapping my stomach in cloth , but I never opened a pharmacy . And when she became the spouse of the President of the Republic of Korea, she eventually became a closet licensee .[8] Even after her marriage, she was famous for calling her husband with honorifics such as "Governor" or "Mr. President," but it is said that she only stopped speaking after her husband's term as president ended. On the other hand, Kim Young-sam is said to have affectionately called her Son Myeong-sun ‘Maeng-suni’ in her private settings.

1998 at the Blue House Dinner

1998 During the People's Government , at the invitation of Kim Dae-jung , four former presidents , Choi Kyu -ha , Chun Doo-hwan , Roh Tae-woo , and Kim Young - sam, attended a dinner party at the Blue House. At the time, excluding Choi Kyu-ha's wife , Hong Ki , the four first ladies, Lee Soon-ja, Kim Ok-sook, Son Myeong-sun, and Lee Hee-ho, also gathered in one place.

In the photo recording of Son Myeong-sun and Lee Soon-ja sitting next to each other, they appear to be uncomfortable in many ways, such as not even making eye contact with each other. Considering the political relationship between Chun Doo-hwan and Kim Young-sam, it can be assumed that the relationship between the two wives was also not as cordial. It is also compared to Kim Ok-sook and Lee Hee-ho, who showed a relatively harmonious appearance.

After Kim Young-sam 's death, he continued to live at his sister's residence in Sangdo-dong. Even though he is old, he eats well and does simple exercise, and although he is over 90 years old, he is said to be doing well without any health problems. This is in contrast to the fact that Roh Tae-woo , who is three years younger than Son Myeong-soon, died on October 26, 2021, three years before Son Myeong-soon, after suffering from various diseases for over 10 years, including the onset of cerebellar atrophy around 2008 after undergoing prostate cancer surgery in 2002.[9]

When Chun Doo-hwan died four weeks later, an artificial flower was sent to Chun Doo-hwan's funeral. Still, it seems that he showed at least some sincerity because he came to pay his respects at the time of Kim Young-sam 's death .

March 7, 2024, approximately 8 years and 4 months after the death of her husband, former President Kim Young -sam.[10] He passed away at 17:39 at the age of 95. His cause of death was suk-hwan . Seoul National University Hospital announced that Ms. Son Myeong-sun remained hospitalized in December 2022 as her pneumonia worsened due to COVID-19 .[11]

With the death of Son Myeong-sun, all members of the Three Kims and their spouses have passed away. The funeral was held at the Seoul National University Hospital Funeral Hall, and the funeral was held for five days under the auspices of the Kim Young-sam Presidential Memorial Foundation. Some of the Sangdo-dong faction members , like Kim Moo-sung , guarded the funeral every day.

On the 11th of the same month, she was buried with her husband at the President Kim Young-sam Mausoleum at the Seoul National Cemetery .

According to his son Kim Hyeon- cheol, in consultation with his siblings, he was considering returning the house where his father and mother lived until the end to the public and turning it into a memorial.[12]

Five months after Son Myeong-sun passed away, her eldest son, Kim Eun-cheol , also passed away from a chronic illness.

  • Kim Eun-cheol (1956-2024)
    The eldest son. Unlike his eldest sister and brother, he is not even approached near politics , but he lives with office workers in the United States . Originally, I wanted to live ordinary, but I couldn't find a job because of my father, who was an opposition politician even after graduating from college in the fifth republic, and even because Kim Young -sam was under household pension by the 5th regime. Afterwards, he immediately immigrated to the United States and lived by avoiding contact with the media. In fact, he was asylum to the United States. I went to the United States in the 5th ball, so I have been far from Korea for more than 40 years. Even though he is the president of the president, the recent situation is rarely disclosed. During his mother's funeral, he was captured with his unique attire at his father's funeral. #[13] On August 7, 2024, he was found dead in Sangdo -dong. There is no external invasion trace and there is no trauma, so it was terminated as a simple transition.

When YS and Choi Hyung-woo had an argument over the merger of the three parties ,[14] It is said that YS, who was angry, told Choi Hyung-woo to hit him with a rock. As Choi Hyeong-woo was coming out, full of anger, he met Mrs. Son Myeong-sun, and Ms. Son Myeong-sun said, "'Why don't you try the big stone and the small stone well?'[15] It is said that when she said that, Choi Hyung-woo also started laughing. #[16]
  • It is said that she was also very interested in women's human rights. During her time as First Lady, she provided scholarships to victims of sexual violence crimes, and she said she paid a lot of attention to the enactment of the Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes and the Protection of Victims in 1994 (currently the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, etc.). do. #
  • Benazir Bhutto , Pakistan 's only female prime minister , visited Korea and had a meeting with President Kim Young-sam. At this time, Prime Minister Bhutto advised President Kim to ‘hand over the presidency to First Lady Son Myung-soon .’ It may seem like nonsense, but Prime Minister Bhutto believed that reform was impossible within his five-year term, so he made his wife his vice president and told him to continue his politics. come from a family of politicians[17] It may have been sound advice from Prime Minister Bhutto's point of view, but it was unreasonable in the Korean political climate, which is negative about family succession.[18] , President Kim Young-sam is also said to have laughed it off because he was dumbfounded.

[1] lunar year 1928 December 6th . My husband and I have birthdays only 2 days apart.[2] He is the second-longest-lived presidential spouse in South Korea . The longest-lived presidential spouse is Lee Hee-ho, aged 96. It's Mrs.[3] He died in the same hospital as her husband .[4] Although it is not registered in the genealogy, it is certain that she is from the Miryang Son clan because her husband's genealogy lists her spouse's origin as the Miryang Son clan. The following is the source photo.파일:김영삼 족보 2.png[5] Source: Wikipedia Son Myeong-soon article .[6] After his mother died young, he had two sons and five daughters born to his father and stepmother, Deok-sun Gam.[7] This is a school rule that was created in the days of Ewha Haktang , and was used by Americans at the time to prevent girls who were physically and mentally immature from being stopped from studying due to early marriage ( forced marriage ). It was instituted by missionaries . However, as times have changed, the prohibition of marriage has become outdated and was abolished in 2003.[8] As is well known, her husband , Kim Young-sam , came from a wealthy family , having served as an opposition member of the National Assembly since his 20s . The in-laws were so wealthy that they were able to make their son a politician for the opposition party in these turbulent times. Since his parents were also from a large landowner family, they were able to make a living without deliberately opening a pharmacy.[9] Still, it is true that Roh Tae-woo also lived for quite a long time.[10] He passed away the day before his second son , Kim Hyeon- cheol 's 65th birthday.[11] When asked whether the collective action against the implementation of the 2024 medical policy had any effect on his health, hospital director Kim Young-tae responded that it was not related at all.[12] Currently, the legal owner of the Sangdo-dong residence is Kim Seong-min, the son of his older brother (Kim Eun-cheol), that is, Kim Young-sam's eldest grandson.[13] The person sitting between Hyun-cheol is Kim Seong-min, the eldest grandson of YS mentioned above.[14] At the time, Choi Hyung-woo was strongly opposed to the decision.[15] This is a comparison between YS's nickname, Geosan, and Choi Hyeong-woo's nickname, Onsan.[16] Unlike Choi Hyeong-woo, the protagonist of this anecdote, who visited the funeral every day at the time of YS's funeral, he was unable to visit Son Myeong-soon's funeral because his health had deteriorated significantly due to his old age of nearly 90.[17] Prime Minister Bhutto's father was also the Prime Minister of Pakistan , her husband later served as President of Pakistan , and her son served as a minister.[18] In Korean society, there is a lot of negative public opinion about hereditary political succession due to the father and son of King Gojong and Sunjong , who were helpless against Japanese invasion , and the Baekdu bloodline of their upper neighbors. To date, the only Korean presidents who are related to each other by family are Park Chung -hee and Park Geun -hye, and as a major accident occurred in this case, it is unclear whether another similar case will occur.
