Daughter of airline boss suspended

-

Korean Air has suspended its chief executive’s younger daughter while police investigat­e reports she threw water at an advertisin­g executive in a meeting.

Cho Hyun-min, 36, a senior vice-president at the company, has apologised and called her behaviour “foolish and reckless”.

She denies throwing water but admits to shoving the advertisin­g agency manager. She is the younger sister of Cho Hyun-ah the airline heiress who infamously delayed a flight over a packet of nuts.

Ms Cho, lost her temper because she was unhappy with answers to her questions during the meeting in Seoul last month.
