SEOUL, Oct. 12 (Yonhap) -- SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won on Monday is said to be challenging the court's property division in his ongoing suit with his former wife, which set the wife's share at 33 percent of their shared property subject to division.

The SK chairman raised the issue in a document submitted to the Supreme Court earlier in the day, as part of his appeal filed in August against the Seoul High Court's decision ordering him to pay 944 billion won (US$707.8 million) in property division to his former wife Roh Soh-yeong, the daughter of late former President Roh Tae-woo.

The appellate court issued the ruling in its second trial after the Supreme Court sent its previous ruling back for retrial a year earlier, determining that the former president's alleged 30 billion-won slush fund given to SK Group should not be recognized as the daughter's contribution to the marriage because it would have been illegal funds, even if it existed.

In the document Chey's side submitted to the Supreme Court as part of his appeal, the SK Group chairman reportedly disputed the legality of the appellate court's latest decision, which set his former wife's share of the property division at 33.3 percent, despite excluding the slush fund from her contributions.

The court initially set Roh's share at 35 percent in its first ruling.

Chey's side also reportedly disputed the court's decision to factor in recent sharp increases in SK shares when determining Roh's share of the property division.

SK shares were valued at around 160,000 won when the appellate court was conducting its first trial, but had surged to around 800,000 won by the time it was conducting the retrial.

Roh's side has yet to file a countering document with the Supreme Court, and she has until Tuesday to do so.

Chey initiated divorce proceedings in 2017 after admitting two years earlier to having an extramarital lover and a child with her. Chey and Roh married in 1988 and have three children together.

首尔，10 月 12 日（韩联社）—— 据称，SK 集团会长崔泰元周一对其与前妻正在进行的财产分割诉讼中法院的判决提出质疑，该判决将妻子在双方共同财产分割中的份额定为 33%。

SK 董事长当天早些时候向最高法院提交了一份文件，提出了这个问题。这是他于 8 月份对首尔高等法院判决提出的上诉的一部分。该判决命令他向前妻卢素英（已故前总统卢泰愚的女儿）支付 9440 亿韩元（7.078 亿美元）的财产分割款。

最高法院一年前将上诉法院之前的裁决发回重审，上诉法院在第二次审判中作出裁决，认定前总统据称给予SK集团的300亿韩元秘密资金不应被认定为女儿对婚姻的贡献，因为即使这笔资金存在，也是非法资金。

据报道，在崔某向最高法院提交的上诉文件中，SK集团董事长崔某对上诉法院最新裁决的合法性提出质疑。该裁决将他前妻在财产分割中的份额定为33.3%，尽管没有将秘密资金计入她的贡献。

法院在第一次裁决中将罗的股份比例定为 35%。

据报道，崔某一方还对法院在确定卢武铉在财产分割中所占份额时考虑SK股票近期大幅上涨的决定提出异议。

上诉法院第一次审理此案时，SK股票的价值约为16万韩元，但到重审时，其价值已飙升至约80万韩元。

罗女士一方尚未向最高法院提交反驳文件，她必须在周二之前提交。

Chey于2017年提起离婚诉讼，此前两年她承认自己有婚外情，并与婚外情对象育有一子。Chey和Roh于1988年结婚，育有三个孩子。
