South Korean musician DJ Koo is mourning his wife, Taiwanese actress Barbie Hsu, who died from acute pneumonia on Feb 2 – just days before their wedding anniversary. On Thursday (Feb 6) night, Koo, whose real name is Koo Jun-yup, shared a message on Instagram expressing his grief.

Barbie Hsu’s husband, DJ Koo, has broken his silence as he grieves his wife's untimely death.
