Julia Lee Mullock, Korea’s last princess, says she’s 93 this year. She was married to the last crown prince Yi Gu who died in July 2005 in Japan. She was married in 1958 and divorced in 1982 with no children but adopted a girl in 1969. I met with her after many years without contact. She was busy around 2006 on a film that was supposed to portray her life. The film to this day has not been produced and Julia doesn’t know why. LJ Films and Focus Features were originally planning to release the film in 2008. She’s very close to LJ Film CEO Lee Seung Jae and has asked me to find his whereabouts. Julia is in Hawaii and not in the best of health and suffers with no family around. She has given me several errands which will keep me busy. She can no longer paint, which was one of her favorite hobbies.
