Singer and actress Hyeri revealed her frugal spending habits.

On the 22nd, Cosmopolitan Korea posted a video titled 'Check out Hyeri's max-level life skills: Reusing airplane toothbrushes multiple times!' on their official channel. In the video, Hyeri introduced items she uses in her daily life while explaining her lifestyle.

On this day, Hyeri took out items from her bag one by one and explained why she uses them. During the process, she showed a toothbrush and a portable sterilizer. After a brief hesitation, she explained, "This toothbrush is from Korean Air," and added the reason why she keeps and reuses it.

Hyeri said, "You brush your teeth on the plane, right? It feels like such a waste to throw it away after just one use. So even if it's disposable, I carry it around and use it a few more times." She also explained how she manages it, "I keep the toothbrush in a sterilizer while carrying it around. Once you charge this, it lasts quite a while, so I find it very convenient."

The video continued to show her practical approach to using everyday items. Hyeri demonstrated how she combines portable devices with hygiene management and reuse, presenting an example of her personal consumption habits.

In 2022, Hyeri purchased a building in Samseong-dong for 7.75 billion KRW through a company under her family's name. She also purchased another building in Yeoksam-dong for 4.39 billion KRW. The market profit from the two properties is estimated to be over 6 billion KRW.

Born in 1994, Hyeri debuted in 2010 as a member of Girl's Day. She gained recognition through hit songs like 'Something,' 'Darling,' and 'Expectation.' She began her acting career in 2012 with the drama 'Tasty Life' and gained significant popularity for her role as Sung Deoksun in the tvN drama 'Reply 1988' that aired in 2015.
