Korean actor Lee Jong-suk, often compared to the fictional character Prince Henry, has seen a significant boost to his real estate fortune. The actor purchased a luxury home in Seoul's exclusive UN Village neighborhood for roughly 4.3 billion won ($3 million) in March 2015. This particular 284-square-meter property was bought at a substantial discount of more than 50 percent from its original sale price, due to the developer's financial difficulties, Dongyang Group.
The estimated market value of a comparable unit in the area has since skyrocketed to around 20 billion won, resulting in an impressive gain of approximately 15.7 billion won. This means the property is now worth about 4.7 times its original purchase price, after roughly 11 years. The actor has reportedly still maintained ownership of the residence.
In 2019, Lee transitioned to a more prestigious location within the same neighborhood, moving into Nine One Hannam, another highly sought-after residential complex.
