TOKYO - Ms Marina Haba, the eldest of six children to Japanese pachinko slot machine mogul Han Chang-woo, first fell in love with Mr Joe Wallace, a strapping basketball player, when she was a college student in 1991.Although they were dating for less than a year, Ms Haba uprooted her life and followed Mr Wallace's basketball career by moving to Spain, Argentina and Paris but they parted ways after his professional retirement.

They reconnected via Facebook in 2011 and, after a meeting in Vancouver, rekindled their romance and married in 2014. Mr Han is suing her for the immediate return of a loan of 480 million yen with interest that he granted her in September last year. He has also taken legal steps to seize all her assets and block her bank accounts.
