Park Seo-joon is already a familiar face for K-drama fans as his notable works include Itaewon Class and What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim?. He also made a brief appearance in the award-winning movie, Parasite. While CNA Luxury reports the actor has a net worth of US$21 million, the figure is expected to rise as he’s also been cast to act alongside Brie Larson in the MCU’s upcoming film, The Marvels.
Park also has an impressive property portfolio according to CNA Luxury, with a US$10 million building in Gangnam’s Sinsa-dong district as well as his US$4.4 million Cheongdam-dong district abode.
2. BTS’ V, 26 – US$20 million
Being a member of the world’s biggest K-pop group allowed BTS’ V to rack up his current fortune of US$20 million according to Celebrity Net Worth. The figure is not surprising considering how active he is as an idol.
He’s done numerous endorsements alongside his bandmates for brands like Louis Vuitton over the years, and is involved in original soundtracks for K-dramas as well as acting – though he’s only ever starred on-screen a couple of times, in Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth back in 2016, and briefly in 7 Fates: Chakho. According to One Mega Group’s Lifestyle Asia, V also owns a US$4.55 million property in Gangnam.
