Rapper Sleepy reveals BTS’ RM gifted 10 million won (approximately 7100 USD) as wedding money.

On the December 2nd KST episode of SBS’s 'Same Bed, Different Dreams 2 - You Are My Destiny' (hereafter referred to as Same Bed, Different Dreams 2), the daily life of rapper Sleepy and his wife, now three years into their marriage, was unveiled for the first time.

During the broadcast, Sleepy showcased the home he shares with his beautiful wife, their first daughter Woo Ah, and their two pet dogs. Having previously lived at his sister-in-law’s house, Sleepy now resides in a spacious and cozy newlywed home. The other cast members were surprised, commenting, “The house looks great,” and “Even the furniture looks luxurious.”

Sleepy explained, “I never thought I’d be able to live in an apartment like this. Of course, it’s not owned outright. My wife is 33 years old and still qualifies for youth loans, which helped us secure the deposit.” He continued, “This home was made possible thanks to the congratulatory money from many celebrities. Kim Gu Ra, Seo Jang Hoon, and Lee Hyun contributed to Woo Ah’s room, while the master bedroom was practically gifted by RM.”

When asked about his connection with RM, Sleepy revealed, “I noticed RM’s potential when he was in middle school, got his contact information, and introduced him to HYBE.” The cast expressed curiosity about RM’s wedding gift, to which Sleepy replied, “He gave a big envelope.” Upon hearing that it was 10 million won, fellow cast member Lee Ji Hye marveled, “That’s extraordinary. I’ve never heard of wedding money that large before.”

Sleepy also shared his gratitude for his “younger brother” DinDin, who contributed significantly to their home appliances. “DinDin hyung took care of most of the appliances. The refrigerator alone was worth 8 million won, and he also gave us a clothing care device. Whenever he no longer needed something like a microwave, speakers, or an air purifier, he would call me, and I’d go pick it up.”

During the episode, Sleepy also shared the good news of winning his lawsuit against his former agency. “To be precise, I didn’t receive settlements for nearly 10 years,” he revealed. “I hadn’t received a single penny, so I decided to expose the issue publicly and informed the press about the settlement issues with my former agency.”

The lawsuit took six years to resolve, and although Sleepy won, he explained, “The agency went bankrupt, so I can’t recover any money. It only cost me legal fees.” He added, “Still, I regained my honor, and that feels liberating.”
