• Lee Joon opens up about his frugal habits: "I'm still wearing the underwear I bought in middle school"

    Lee Joon recently opened up about his simple and straightforward lifestyle.

    On the hit SBS show 'My Little Old Boy', which aired on April 14th, Lee Joon made an appearance that sparked interest among viewers.

    During the show, Seo Jang Hoon shared, "Lee Joon has been using the same underwear he bought in middle school for ten years. He also prefers biking over public transport, considering the monthly card cost of 700,000 won too much."

    Lee Joon confirmed this, adding, "I found the subway fare unnecessary during my trainee days. I used to bike every day from Songpa, where I lived, to Apgujeong."

    Lee Joon further revealed his simple approach to life, stating, "I don't feel the need to replace things unless they're worn out. This includes my underwear. I only replace them when they're worn out."

    He also mentioned his simple household habits, "Even though I live in a big house, my water bill is less than 3,000 won. I often shower at the gym, and my heating costs are low as I prefer to wear fur clothes."

    He also shared his simple eating habits, "I usually eat at the library cafeteria near my house. I'm a fan of ramen and make sure to have it at least once a day. My daily food expenses amount to around 8,000 won. When I'm out for work, I enjoy pork belly and beef."

  • BTS's V Causes MASSIVE Crowd Chaos in Indonesia - Fans Flock to SimInvest Event for Exclusive V Merch

    BTS’s V is creating major buzz in Indonesia once again, and this time, it’s all thanks to his role as a global ambassador for the financial platform SimInvest!

    In March 2023, V was chosen as the face of the Indonesian investment platform, and he continues to hold the title for the second consecutive year. SimInvest has seen impressive growth thanks to V’s loyal fanbase, particularly among the younger generation. The platform expressed their delight, revealing that V’s influence has played a huge role in their success.

    For 2024, the platform is making an exciting move by adding legendary actor Jackie Chan as a co-ambassador alongside V. SimInvest hopes that this partnership will boost the platform’s appeal even further and help build trust among a wider audience.

    To celebrate the incredible growth, SimInvest threw an event in Jakarta from January 16 to 24. They set up a special booth at the MRT station where fans could grab exclusive V-themed merchandise and enjoy free coffee. As expected, the turnout was massive, with fans flooding the station and forming long lines. The crowd was so large that the event had to be paused multiple times for safety reasons, as SimInvest had to manage the growing number of fans. Both the company and the fans were in awe of the overwhelming "V-effect"!

    V’s popularity in Indonesia is undeniable. On Instagram, he was recently ranked as the second most influential celebrity in the world—just behind Cristiano Ronaldo. He also tops the search volume charts on Indonesia’s Google Trends for Korean stars.

    This isn’t the first time V has caused a stir in Indonesia. Back in 2021, during BTS's ambassadorship with Hyundai Motors at the Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS), a "Hyundai x BTS" photo booth saw V being the most popular member with attendees. Fans couldn’t get enough of the global superstar!

    It’s clear that V’s impact in Indonesia—and globally—continues to grow stronger, with fans everywhere eager to show their love for the K-pop icon!
