Thinking back on this indirectly, Hyoyeon spoke up after hearing about her colleagues’ expensive home purchases. Hyoyeon said, “But just by reading the articles these days, I see that celebrity friends and others are buying houses alone in Hannam-dong a lot. I’m jealous,” revealing her candid side.
On the other hand, Chaeyoung, the younger singer who went on the property tour with her, offered a slightly different opinion about Hannam-dong.
Chaeyoung, who spent her trainee days near Hangangjin Station in the past, said, “I looked at Hannam-dong, and the energy was so strong. Because there are many old buildings and it seems like there are a lot of rich people too, it felt a bit overwhelming. I thought I should look at this place again after my 30s,” making those around her laugh.
