Choi Moo Ryong’s Spouse and Children
During his life, Choi Moo-ryong has married three times. Choi Moo-ryong’s first wife was the fellow actress Kang Hyo-shil with whom he acted in The Box of Death. They married when Kang Hyo-shil was only 20 years old, according to the International age system, despite the opposition of Kang Hyo-shil’s mother, renowned actress Jeon Ok. Choi Moo-ryong and Kang Hyo-shil have five children: actor Choi Min-soo, Choi Jin-kyeong, Choi Hyun-sook, Choi Jung-woo, and Choi Ye-sook. Unfortunately, Choi Moo-ryong and Kang Hyo-shil divorced in 1962 as Choi Moo-ryong committed adultery with famous actress Kim Ji-mee, who he later married and had one daughter named Choi Young-sook with. Alas, Choi Moo-ryong and Kim Ji-mee’s marriage also ended in divorce due to the bankrupt status of Choi Moo-ryong for the failure of the production of his films. Lastly, his third wife is named Cha Geum-ja who accompanied him until his death which was caused by Myocardial infarction on 11 November 1999.
