BTS Star J-Hope Sells Off His High-End Seoul Apartment Purchased In 2016
All the members of BTS are known to have lavish houses in South Korea. And J-Hope, aka Jung Hoseok, is no exception. The rapper and dancer, who owns four properties in Seoul, has now sold one of his luxury apartments at the famous Seoul Forest Trimage in Seongsu-dong, Seoul. Reportedly, he bought that place in July 2016 for about 4 billion KRW.
According to a report by Wow TV Korea, the 31-year-old sold the apartment earlier this year after owning it for nearly nine years. He made a big profit of around 2.7 billion KRW. Even after paying 1 billion KRW in taxes, J-Hope managed to earn a profit of 1.65 billion KRW from the sale of the property.
What Are The Other Luxurious Properties Owned By J-Hope?
J-Hope loves luxury items like watches, bags and jewellery. But his real estate investments are a big part of his wealth. Besides the one that J-Hope has sold now, he also owns a 152 square meter apartment in the same Forest Trimage complex. He reportedly purchased the place in 2018 for 3.7 billion KRW.
Expanding his investment in real estate, the BTS star purchased two opulent apartments in the Aper Hangang complex last year. He reportedly bought a penthouse with an area of 273.86 square meters, along with three rooms and four bathrooms, for 12 billion KRW in cash. Later, he purchased another unit right below it for a whopping 10 billion KRW. It has a floor area of 232.86 square meters and comes with three bedrooms and three bathrooms on a single floor.
The total value of properties owned by J-Hope stands at 27 billion KRW. Interestingly, he bought all the apartments in cash, without taking any loans.
What's Next For J-Hope?
The BTS member, who got discharged from the military in October last year, released three back-to-back singles this year. Starting with the release of Sweet Dreams in March, feat. Miguel, followed by Mona Lisa just days later, and concluding the releases with Killin' It Girl feat. GloRilla on June 13. He was also on his first worldwide concert tour titled Hope on the Stage from February to June.
Currently, J-Hope has reunited with his groupmates in Los Angeles, where they are preparing for their comeback album, which is slated to be released sometime in the first half of 2026.

EL CAPITXN calls SUGA his ‘unrequited love', reveals BTS member's hilarious reaction to ‘I love you' drunk text
SUGA is known to be kind towards his friends, but not overly affectionate. In fact, the occasions where he has initiated skipship towards fellow BTS members are very rare to find. That does not mean he's not close to them, however. One to choose words for expressing his fondness, fans are aware of how he dotes over his close people. Among many, one of his well-known friendships outside his team is with DJ and record producer EL CAPITXN. During a recent livestream, Jang Yijeong replied to a fan's comment about hugging his bestie Min Yoongi, declaring his unrequited love for him. EL CAPITXN's unrequited love for SUGA When a fan told EL CAPITXN that they loved SUGA more than they loved him, and asked him to hug the rapper in their stead, thanking him for taking care of the star, he said, 'Every time I do it, it takes me a lot of courage to hug Yoongi because he doesn't really like such actions (skinship). He's not fond of being touched by others. So, I'd have to muster up the courage to hug him each time. One time when I was drunk, I sent him a text message saying: 'Yoongi, I love you' but I didn't get a good response," breaking into a fit of laughter. Adding how his one-sided love for the BTS star was tough, he made a remark, 'That's how life is, isn't it?' Same-aged friends, EL CAPITXN, even joined SUGA on his D-DAY tour as a DJ, where he had the opportunity to showcase his skills and declare his love, a sight deeply enjoyed by fans. EL CAPITXN, being an in-house producer at HYBE, has credits in many songs of BTS, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, ENHYPEN, and SEVENTEEN as well as outside artists including SUNMI, Eric Nam, PLAVE, tripleS, NCT U, BAEKHYUN, ZEROBASEONE, ARTMS, Doyoung, UNIS, STAY C, Jung Yong Hwa, Paul Kim, NOWZ, WHIB, BEWAVE, and Melody Day. Recently, he was also involved in the creation of the group AHOF, for which he has written multiple songs. Notably, he has also contributed in many tracks for SUGA, including Daechwita, Life Goes On and more on his D-2 and D-Day albums.

Set to start on August 24, the latest installment of Salman Khan's popular reality show has viewers impatiently waiting for the list of contestants. Among the names that are currently making waves is Gurucharan Singh, whose most popular role to date has been Roshan Singh Sodhi in the widely watched sitcom Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah (TMKOC). As per a report by TellyChakkar, Gurucharan Singh is almost confirmed to be a Bigg Boss 19 contestant. Sources indicate that negotiations between the actor and the makers of the show are at an advanced level. Although an official announcement is still awaited, the actor is reportedly a top favorite to feature on the show. Makers of reality show are in talks to finalize his inclusion and his participation is almost confirmed," TellyChakkar informed. Thus, neither Gurucharan Singh nor Bigg Boss producers have officially confirmed his entry yet. Bigg Boss Makers Keep Contestant List Secret Similar to each season, Bigg Boss producers have opted not to reveal the final contestant list. But rumors are widespread online. Apart from Gurucharan Singh, names like Dheeraj Dhoopar, Apoorva Mukhija, and some social media personalities were said to have been approached. Promos of the show have made fans only more curious, particularly with Salman Khan hinting at a 'new pattern" for this season in the promos. Who is Gurucharan Singh? Gurucharan Singh became popular with the role of Roshan Singh Sodhi in TMKOC, which he left in 2020. Following his exit, Balvinder Singh Suri replaced him. In April 2024, Singh became the center of attention after he went missing only to turn up at home almost a month later. He subsequently cleared air that he had embarked on a spiritual retreat to deal with financial woes, which made him go missing for a while. Bigg Boss 19 Premieres On August 24 The producers announced the first teaser of Bigg Boss 19 on July 25, and later a promo clip with Salman Khan on July 31. This season on Colors TV and JioCinema has already promised new twists and a renewed format.
