This is in moments like these that I see how vastly laws can differ from country to country. In mine, that sh** would never happen because only direct family would be able to receive "compensation money", meaning parents and children of the person. The uncles and aunts and even siblings are considered "collateral" and are not entitled to anything. They would only in the case of an actual succession on the things the deceased person owned, and they would only because they would be the only ones left, and even then, they wouldn't gain much because the further in the bloodline of the deceased you are, the more you have to pay taxes on the amount you're supposed to receive.
That's why Korean succession laws always completely baffle me.
