Actor Ha Ji-won bought a building worth 10 billion won and is known to be suffering losses.
On the 20th, Money Today reported that Ha Ji-won purchased the building in Seongsu-dong 2-ga, Seongdong-gu, Seoul in March 2020 under the name of her agency Haewadal Entertainment, and all of them are vacant except for the optician on the first floor.
The building is a building with a land area of 257.2㎡ and 1 basement level and 8 floors above ground. Ha Ji-won has held solo exhibitions메이저놀이터 and pop-up stores, but it is reported that there is no annual rental.
According to the certified copy of the register, the maximum bond amount set for the building is 9 billion won. Ha Ji-won’s actual loan amount is estimated to be around 8 billion won, and the interest is estimated at 26 million won per month (based on an annual interest rate of 4%).
