The eldest Cho sister made the international news four years ago. In what would later become known as “nut rage,” Cho Hyun Ah forced two flight attendants to kneel and beg forgiveness for serving her nuts in a bag rather than a bowl.

Even after making them apologize, she threw one of them off the plane before takeoff. The hot-tempered woman was jailed for one year for the incident as she was obstructing aviation safety. After she was released, she returned to work as the executive of Korean Air’s hotel affiliate.
