SK Chairman Chey Tae-won has accepted a property division of 700 billion won ($524.3 million) from his ex-wife in a divorce case, according to The Korea Times. Chey's legal representatives filed an application with the Seoul High Court on August 31 to amend the scope of his appeal, reducing it to 244 billion won ($174.3 million).
