It has been lately confirmed that BLACKPINK Jennie purchased a building near Hannam New Town for 20 billion KRW.
On the 11th, according to investment banking (IB) and real estate sources, Jennie bought a building located in Dongbinggo-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul for 20 billion KRW last May and completed the ownership transfer in December of the same year. Since there are no loans recorded on the property, it is assumed that she paid the full amount in cash.
The building, completed in 1970, is located in the northern part of Dongbinggo-dong, an area densely populated with foreign embassies. This specific building was previously used as the Embassy of Iraq in South Korea. It is reported that the property has now been vacated. The land area is 595㎡, with a total floor area of 551.08㎡, consisting of one basement level and two above-ground floors. The price per pyeong is approximately 111 million won.
The Dongbinggo-dong area chosen by Jennie is seeing active development alongside the nearby Hannam New Town redevelopment project and the creation of Yongsan Park. Redevelopment of Hannam District 5 is already moving forward the south. Also, the former U.S. military transportation site is being developed into a luxury residential complex. Along with the UN Command site under development and the Camp Kim site planned for development, is is considered as one of the three major returned U.S. military sites.
Meanwhile, Jennie, who is actively promoting both as a group member and a solo artist, is being labeled 'young and rich; for her bold real estate investments. Last year, she reportedly rented an entire new building in Hannam-dong as the headquarters for her one-person agency, 'ODD ATELIER (OA),' with monthly rent reported to be over 60 million KRW. In 2023, she also purchased a luxury villa in UN Village for 5 billion KRW entirely in cash.
