    The BTS rapper was allotted the unit in 2020, but the ownership was completed only recently, on June 10. The house is estimated to be priced at about ₩12.0 billion KRW (about $8.69 million USD).



    Afer Hangang is a newly built residential town next to Yongsan Park. Its units offer views of both the park and the Han River. The township consists of 26 units, with exclusive areas ranging from 205.84 square meters to 273.94 square meters, spread across five basement levels and ten above-ground floors. Residents are reportedly offered premium community amenities and private services, which include limousine service, house cleaning, and concierge service.



    Many other notable celebrities have purchased units in the same township, including actors Gong Yoo, Kim Go Eun, Han Hyo Joo, Soo Ae, Ryu Deok Hwan, and soccer player Kim Ki Hee.

  • Good for him. But I must say Seoul is an ugly city and the price of housing is crazy. Most celebrities flats there look like upper middle class flats to me. Crazy.

    Yeah, like, for the same money, he could have owned 3 ultra-luxury villas with their own huge land in my country.

  • He bought in 2020 and only recently got the ownership or that was when he had booked the apartment and just recently the construction was completed? Regardless congratulations to J-Hope... It's his 2nd house in Seoul, right? Or did he sell the previous one?

    Hobi had 2 flats in the Trimage apartment complexes. In one he was living himself, in the other his family. But last year it was seen that his family started living in a villa-style place. It is currently unclear whether he sold both of his flats or whether he continues to own them.
