Recently, a video titled "Big Bang Daesung's Han River View Apartment Owned by a Billionaire: Heukseok Mark Hills (a.k.a. Prime Spot for Fireworks Festival)" was released on the YouTube channel 'wander planet.'


According to the video, in 2015, Daesung purchased one unit with an exclusive area of 275 square meters (approximately 85 pyeong) at Heukseok Mark Hills in Heukseok-dong for 1.4 billion won. This complex is a high-end apartment building consisting of just 18 units in a single building, with every unit featuring four bedrooms and three bathrooms, and its living rooms offer an unobstructed view of the Han River. The current market price of the apartment, which was around 1.4 billion won at the time of purchase, is reportedly now as high as 10 billion won.


This apartment is also considered a prime location for viewing the Seoul World Fireworks Festival. In the past, it served as the newlywed home for Jang Donggun and Ko Soyeong, and Hyun Bin also lived there for about 11 years. Currently, it is said to be home to former figure skating national team member Kim Yuna and Forestella member Ko Woorim, as well as singer and actress Jung Soojung.


The market price of the building owned by Daesung has also reportedly risen significantly compared to the time of purchase. In November 2017, he purchased a building with two basement floors and nine above-ground floors along the main road in Nonhyeon-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul for 31 billion won, and its current market value is said to have exceeded 90 billion won.



Daesung debuted as a member of Big Bang in 2007. Celebrating their 20th anniversary, Big Bang kicked off their world tour "XX: COSMOS IN GOYANG" at the Goyang Sports Complex Main Stadium on the 21st of last month. Through this tour, they are scheduled to perform 33 times in 19 cities worldwide, meeting their global fans.
