Girl's Day member, Hyeri, has made a splash in the real estate scene by buying and revamping a building in Seoul.

On April 6th, MoneyToday spilled the beans that Hyeri had snagged a 4-story building in Yeoksam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The building was bought under a corporation she set up back on December 31, 2020.

The building, about 20 years old, was bought for a cool 4.39 billion won, which is thought to be just for the land value, not including the building itself.

Hyeri wrapped up the payment on March 30, 2021, got the green light for reconstruction within a month, and kicked off construction in June that year.

The revamped building boasts 4 floors and a basement, with a total floor area of 499.88㎡.

MoneyToday estimates that the current market price of the revamped building and land could be over 7.5 billion won.

While the simple market price profit is 3 billion won, insiders in the real estate industry reckon that the actual profit might not be that big, considering the acquisition tax and construction cost.

Born in 1994, Hyeri shot to fame as a member of Girl's Day in 2010 and further boosted her popularity through MBC's 'Real Men'.

Hyeri, who played the lead role Sung Deok Sun in tvN's 'Reply 1988', earned the nickname '10 Billion Girl' and cemented her status as a top-tier actress.

She was in a public relationship with actor Ryu Jun Yeol starting from 2017, but they called it quits in November last year.

Following their breakup, Ryu Jun Yeol was rumored to be dating actress Han So Hee. Han So Hee confirmed the relationship through her blog, but they announced their breakup just two weeks into their public romance.

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. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
