In the 112th episode of KBS 2TV's 'Entertainment Company Live,' which aired on December 22, the celebrities who profited from real estate investments in 2022 were revealed.

According to the show, Seo Taiji is the star who earned the most significant profit. In 2002, he purchased a two-story building in Nonhyeon-dong for about 5 billion KRW (~3.9 million USD) and carried out construction to build a new six-story building. The building, called the Seo Taiji Building for the past 20 years, was sold for about 38.7 billion KRW (~30 million KRW) in April of 2022 after the subway station opened and its real estate value soared. Seo Taiji drew attention with a market profit of about 33 billion KRW (~25.6 million USD).


Actor Ryu Jun Yeol made a profit in a short period of time. In 2020, he purchased a site in Yeoksam-dong for about 5.8 billion KRW (~4.5 million USD). In January of this year, he sold the building for about 15 billion KRW (~11.6 million USD). The market profit was about 9 billion KRW (~7 million USD).

I know that several guys from BTS invested in crypto arbitrage team because of the good returns. Which is a good idea because they don't have much time to figure it out, so for them a fixed stable interest is just like for many other people.
