The court's recollection is that Mrs. Kim worked while residing in the U.S. Second, almost one-half of Mr. Kim's weekly expenses are incurred for the education of his children. The court's recollection is that these monies are spent on issue(s) who is over the age of 18 and is attending college — he and/or she is no longer a minor. Third, Mr. Kim's affidavit lists his total liabilities as $33,000; yet just above that, he indicates a present balance of only $700 on that loan which will be paid off in less than one year. Fourth, the court has concerns about the existence and/or terms of a $30,000 "Private loan." Fifth, he lists "Total Other Assets" of some $6500 but does not break them down Sixth, the court has not been enlightened regarding the settlement money that the plaintiff(s) received from co-defendants in this matter.
