Lee Seon-min's Father is a Landowner; A Wealth Management Expert Who Will Move into a Gangnam Apartment at Age 77

Comedian Lee Seon-min drew attention by revealing everything from his father's 300-pyeong scale land ownership to his experience investing in Samsung Electronics stocks. While naming securing a Gangnam apartment as his life goal, he provided a laugh by calculating the necessary funds and stating, "I think it will be possible around age 77." As the story emerged that his father has been tending a vegetable garden on a large plot of land after retirement, host Park Young-jin made a joke regarding Lee Seon-min's family circumstances.

Lee Seon-min appeared as the first guest on the content 'Money Hearing' of the Kiwoom Securities YouTube channel 'Channel Kekeu', which was released on the 8th. In this broadcast, they shared stories regarding daily spending habits, wealth management methods, and economic goals they wish to achieve in the future. In particular, he drew attention by candidly revealing not only his activities as a celebrity but also his actual asset management and investment experiences.

The biggest goal Lee Seon-min revealed was securing a Gangnam apartment. However, rather than remaining a vague dream, realistic concerns followed when he calculated the required funds. He predicted the timing of his entry into a Gangnam apartment to be "around age 77." It was essentially an admission that there is a significant gap between his desired goal and his current economic conditions. The honest calculation regarding the symbolic goal of a Gangnam apartment elicited laughter.

The fact that his father owns land was also revealed. Lee Seon-min stated that after his father retired, he has been living while tending a vegetable garden on a 300-pyeong scale plot of land. Upon hearing this, Park Young-jin made a joke suggesting that Lee Seon-min might be what is called a 'gold spoon.' However, the fact that his father owns land alone cannot be used to conclude the total scale of the family's assets or Lee Seon-min's own economic abundance. In the broadcast, the father's life of working the land after retirement drew topical interest.

His stock investment experience was also not omitted. Lee Seon-min holds Samsung Electronics shares and explained, "I buried them three years ago." Regarding why he did not significantly increase the investment amount at that time, he expressed regret, saying, "I should have gone all-in with my entire fortune." Although it was a joke-filled remark made while looking back at the results after the investment, it resonated with people as it touched upon the regrets that any stock investor might have experienced at least once. Of course, the possibility of profit or investment results for a specific stock can vary depending on the timing and purchase price.

In his spending life, an unexpectedly practical side was revealed. Lee Seon-min stated that he currently drives a 2018 domestic SUV. While in a situation of accumulating assets with the goal of a Gangnam apartment, he is continuing to use his existing vehicle rather than changing to a new model. As his image of maintaining his current lifestyle rather than flaunting expensive consumption was revealed, interest also focused on his wealth management methods.

Stories surrounding his appearance fee also added to the laughter. Participating in a game where he had to make choices regarding his appearance fee, Lee Seon-min displayed his unique wit, saying, "Just show me all the appearance fees for a moment." Recently known by the nickname 'RESCENE Uncle' through content related to the girl group RESCENE, he matched wits with Park Young-jin in this broadcast by speaking candidly about his wealth and investment experiences.

From his father's retirement life owning 300 pyeong of land to Samsung Electronics stocks, a 2018 SUV, and the goal of entering a Gangnam apartment at age 77. Lee Seon-min's story went beyond a simple disclosure of wealth to show the image of a person struggling between economic goals and reality. Unlike the stories that make it seem as though he already owns luxurious real estate, the fact that he himself predicted it would take a long time to secure a Gangnam apartment created a strange contrast and drew interest.
