Sunwoo Yong-nyeo reveals daughter's in-laws are car enthusiasts with major Ford stock

Actress Sunwoo Yong-nyeo has drawn significant attention by revealing stories regarding the extraordinary connection to automobiles and the wealth of her daughter Choi Yeon-je's in-laws. Her explanation suggests that it goes beyond simply enjoying luxury cars; one family member is a racer, and there is a substantial connection to Ford Motor Company.

On the 20th, Sunwoo expressed her special affection for cars by personally experiencing high-performance vehicles in a video released on her YouTube channel. During the video, she rode in a vehicle with over 700 horsepower and experienced high-speed driving and drifting.

Prior to the experience, Sunwoo could not hide her anticipation, saying, "It's my first time experiencing this in my life, and I'm so, so excited and it's great." She noted that her family members are also very interested in cars and introduced her son-in-law's extraordinary automotive hobby.

Sunwoo mentioned that her son-in-law "pays money to fly from LA to Germany just to experience" car driving. When the production crew mentioned seeing a photo of a family member in racing gear, Sunwoo explained, "No, that's the grandfather. The grandfather is a racer."

The story about her daughter's great-grandfather was especially eye-catching. Sunwoo mentioned the connection between the in-laws and the American automaker Ford, stating in essence, "They own a lot of Ford Motor Company stock. They have been living off those shares all this time."

According to her explanation, Choi's great-grandfather was not only a racer who enjoyed car racing but also appears to have held a significant amount of Ford Motor Company stock. However, this is a family history shared directly by Sunwoo on the broadcast, and the specific scale of stock holdings or total assets has not been disclosed.

Sunwoo herself has had a long-standing relationship with automobiles. She recalled driving vehicles herself while working as a female model for a domestic car brand, using Cadillac in the United States, and changing her BMW several times after returning to Korea.

Above all, she drew surprise by revealing that her driving career spans 60 years. Even when the speed of the high-performance vehicle reached 200 km/h that day, she appeared relatively calm, making her long driving experience palpable.

On the other hand, during the drifting experience where the vehicle slid and rotated, she shouted, "That's enough. Thank you. Stop it." Her reaction, which seemed to recall memories of a past traffic accident on snowy roads, brought laughter to the scene.

Sunwoo's daughter, Choi Yeon-je, was active as a singer in the 1990s, making a name for herself with songs such as "If You Give Me Your Heart." Since then, she has been practicing as an oriental medicine doctor in the United States and is married to her American husband, Kevin Gordon, with whom she has a son. Gordon is known to be a vice president at an American financial firm.
