SHINee’s Key recently gave fans a look inside his new home, but not everyone is impressed. His house tour on Home Alone sparked a debate among netizens.

Key’s new place is located in Hannam-dong’s UN Village, a high-end area where only eight households reside.

His 80-pyeong (approx. 2,800 sq. ft.) apartment comes with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Han River. The price? A staggering 6 billion KRW (~$4.5 million USD).

MC Park Na Rae was in awe of the breathtaking view, saying, “This is definitely in my top three for the best views I’ve seen.”

During the episode, Key set up a terrace for his dogs, bought camping gear and a gas grill, and shared his thoughts on what a home should be.

He said, “Since I lived with my parents, I’ve always believed that a house should be my sanctuary, fortress, playground, restaurant, and bar all in one. If a house gives you all of that, then you’re truly living well.”

The episode recorded a peak viewership rating of 8.2%, making it the #1 show on Friday.

While some fans admired Key’s home, others felt disconnected from yet another luxury house reveal.

Many long-time viewers prefer relatable homes like those previously shown by Yook Joong Wan, Defconn, and Kian84, instead of multi-million dollar apartments.

Some netizens commented:

• “Why hate on celebrities? Let them enjoy their success.”
• “They worked hard for their dream home—what’s the problem?”
• “I skip the show when they feature another luxury home.”
• “Are all celebrities this rich?”
• “Watching this just makes me feel broke.”
• “I miss Yook Joong Wan’s old house.”

With more and more luxurious celebrity homes being showcased, some are wondering—is Home Alone still relatable, or has it become a show for the rich?

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
