• Hwang Jung Eum Earns 4.7 billion KRW (~4 million USD) In Profit After Selling Her building In Sinsa-dong

    Hwang Jung-eum, who received many congratulations for her second pregnancy, delivered another great news.

    Maeil Business News Agency reported on the 16th that Hwang Jung-eum sold the building in Sinsa-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul after 3 years, earning a profit of 4.7 billion won.

    According to reports, Hwang Jung-eum bought a building in Sinsa-dong (1 basement floor and 6 above-ground floors) in 2018 for 6.25 billion won. After that, he sold the building last month for 11 billion won.

    If you look at the simple purchase and sale amount alone, it is a profit of 4.75 billion won.

    A real estate official explained through the media, "Even if Hwang Jeong-eum bought it under the name of the corporation he is currently representing and considered paying corporate tax when transferring it, he would have made more than 3 billion won in tax profit within three years and eight months of holding it."

    Hwang Jung-eum previously attracted attention by purchasing a detached house in Itaewon-dong, Seoul for 4.65 billion won last year under her own name.

    Meanwhile, Hwang Jung-eum married Lee Young-don, a former professional golfer, in 2016, and had a son the following year.

    After that, news of their breakup last year broke out, but they succeeded in reuniting after a year. In October, she announced that she was pregnant with her second child and was baptized.

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service.
