J-Hope of BTS has gained attention for his most recent real estate deal. He paid a staggering $8.6 million in cash for an expensive property in Seoul. His magnificent purchases demonstrate both his taste for luxury and his financial success.
J-hope’s New Penthouse
Ten Asia said on June 20 that J-Hope bought a penthouse in Seobinggo-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul’s Afer Hangang building. Set across two floors, the penthouse is a duplex with an exceptional space of 273.86 square metres. This unit was given to J-Hope in 2020, and on June 10th, the ownership transfer was finalised. The penthouse’s estimated sale price, according to the real estate sector, is around 12 billion KRW, or $8.6 million USD.
J-hope’s Other Luxury Purchase
J-Hope has previously acquired luxury real estate. In the past, he purchased two luxurious residences in Seoul’s Seongsu-dong and Seongdong-gu neighbourhoods at Trimage. He paid cash for a 32-pyeong unit (~1,139 sq ft) and a 62-pyeong unit (2,205.96 sq ft) that he purchased in 2016 for 3.7 billion KRW ($2.66 million USD). Both of the Trimage units are still his.
J-Hope is currently a military member. He joined in April and is currently assigned to the Recruit Training Center of the 36th Infantry Division as an assistant instructor. October 17th is when he is scheduled to be released. J-Hope is still well-known in the music business despite serving in the military. Jin, a fellow member of BTS, was recently seen being greeted by him after receiving his military discharge.
Music Success
J-Hope remains on the top charts with his music even when he is performing. ‘HOPE ON THE STREET VOL.1,’ his most recent album, was released on March 29 and peaked at number 200 on the US Billboard 200. Reservations for the album’s pop-up event were completely sold out before the actual opening day due to its immense popularity. This demonstrates the fervent attention and backing of his supporters.
In conclusion, J-Hope’s most recent penthouse acquisition is evidence of his success and opulence preferences. His influence in music and real estate is still significant, even though he is serving in the military right now.
