• "Why is he doing this?" — Jay Park's Instagram Post with Soju Bottle in His Underwear Causes Mixed Reactions from Netizens

    On August 8, Park Jaebum, also known as Jay Park, took to Instagram to share an unexpected update with his fans.

    The singer announced a collaboration between his soju brand, and a fashion brand. However, it wasn't the collaboration that caught netizens' attention, but rather the photo that accompanied the announcement.

    In the photo, Park can be seen shirtless, showing off his impressive muscles and tattoos. However, what really stood out was the fact that he had placed a bottle of soju in his underwear and struck a provocative pose in front of a mirror.

    As expected, netizens had mixed reactions to the photo. Some found it humorous and on-brand with Park's persona, while others found it distasteful and wondered why he would take a picture like that.

    Here are some of the most noteworthy reactions:

    "This is just too much. Why is he doing this?"

    "Wow, he's really going all out for his brand. It's kind of impressive, to be honest."

    "I'm sorry, but this is just plain gross."

    "I don't get why people are making such a big deal out of this. It's just a picture."

    "He's always been known for his edgy image, so I'm not surprised by this at all."

    "I don't know how to feel about this. On the one hand, it's kind of hot. On the other hand, it's kind of disturbing."

    "He's clearly trying to shock people and get attention. I'm not sure if it's working."

    "This is so unnecessary. Can't he just promote his brand in a normal way?"

    "Honestly, I think he looks pretty good in the picture. It's just a shame that he had to ruin it by doing something so stupid."

    "I don't know what to say. I guess it's just classic Park Jaebum being Park Jaebum."

  • Park Bo Gum shows he is good with money as his Jongno apartment rises by 500 million won in just one year and sets a new record

    Park Bo Gum is not just a talented actor — he’s showing he’s smart with money too!

    The star of Netflix’s When Life Gives You Tangerines (폭싹 속았수다) recently made headlines after the value of his apartment jumped by a whopping 500 million won (about 370,000 USD) in just one year.

    According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport’s real estate transaction records revealed on the 19th, the apartment where Park Bo Gum lives — an 84㎡ unit in Gyeonghuigung Ja-i Complex 2 in Hongpa-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul — was sold for a record-breaking 2.54 billion won on March 21st. The unit is located on the 11th floor.

    When you compare it to last year’s prices, which ranged from 1.95 billion to 2.05 billion won, that’s a massive increase of about 500 million won!

    Gyeonghuigung Ja-i is known as a luxury apartment complex inside Seoul’s historic Four Great Gates area. It’s super close to popular spots like Gwanghwamun, City Hall, and Seodaemun Station on Subway Line 5 — making it really easy to get to hot places like Yeouido, Mapo, and even Gangnam through Line 3’s Dongnimmun Station.

    It’s reported that Park Bo Gum moved there back in 2019 after leaving Mokdong in Yangcheon-gu, choosing Gyeonghuigung Ja-i mainly for its perfect location near his work spots.

    Other units in the same complex have also been seeing crazy price jumps! A 59㎡ unit recently sold for 1.85 billion won (15th floor) last month, and a 101㎡ unit was sold for 2.73 billion won (7th floor) in February.

    An insider from the real estate industry said, "Apartments near palaces will likely stay in high demand because of their historic meaning, the beautiful city surroundings, and great transportation."

    Looks like Park Bo Gum definitely made a smart move with this one.
