Former EXO Member Tao Reportedly Proposes to Former SM Trainee Xu Yiyang
Former EXO member Tao has officially proposed to Xu Yiyang.
According to Chinese media outlet Sohu Entertainment, on August 26th, Tao publicly proposed to Xu Yiyang during a broadcast. He asked, "Please allow me the honor of marrying you," which brought Xu Yiyang to tears.
Just last month, on July 14th, Tao and Xu Yiyang shared romantic photos of themselves holding hands and kissing on a beach, saying, "We want to be together forever."
Tao, who debuted with EXO in 2012, left the group in 2015. Since 2020, there have been rumors about him dating Xu Yiyang, a former SM Rookies trainee who is four years younger.
However, Tao previously mentioned, "Dating is a personal matter. If someone acknowledges their relationship, they should be blessed, and if they don't, it's not necessarily wrong."
Now that Tao has publicly acknowledged their relationship and proposed, many are wondering if their wedding will happen soon.
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.
