Singer and actor Lee Seung Gi has upgraded his newlywed home to one of the most luxurious villas in Seoul.

The star, who tied the knot with actress Lee Da In in 2023, recently signed a lease for a stunning villa in the UN Village, Hannam-dong, setting real estate records in the process!

According to reports from January 6, Lee Seung Gi has leased a 255㎡ unit on the second floor of La Nuvo Hannam, a high-end villa known for its breathtaking Han River view and premium privacy.

The leasehold price? A jaw-dropping 10.5 billion KRW! This makes it the most expensive lease agreement recorded in Seoul for two consecutive years.

The lease, which runs until August 2026, suggests that Lee Seung Gi and his wife have moved from their previous newlywed home in Samseong-dong, Gangnam, to this luxurious property. The couple initially settled in his privately owned apartment after their wedding.

La Nuvo Hannam is a small but exclusive housing complex with only four units spread over four floors, completed in 2022. Its duplex design and expansive Han River views make it one of the most sought-after homes in the area. In fact, EXO's Baekhyun also made headlines last year when he moved into the same villa!

Currently, another unit of the same size is listed for sale at an eye-popping 22 billion KRW. This highlights the exclusivity and skyrocketing value of the property.

The UN Village is a hot spot for top-tier celebrities and business elites, thanks to its scenic views of the Han River and Namsan Tower, as well as its discreet, private structure. It’s no surprise that Lee Seung Gi, with his growing success, has chosen this prestigious location.

But this isn't Lee Seung Gi's only high-end real estate venture. He also owns a massive detached home in Seongbuk-dong, a two-story luxury residence with a total area of 1,200㎡.

Purchased in late 2021 for 5.635 billion KRW, the home reportedly involved a bank loan secured by his other properties.

With his latest move, Lee Seung Gi continues to prove that he’s not just a star in entertainment but also in real estate! Fans are excited to see what this luxurious new chapter will bring for the couple.
