Kang Dong Won’s gift was a 1.2 billion KRW (about $867,510) building and furniture he made himself. The house that Jo In Sung gifted his parents was about 17.5 billion KRW (about $12.65 million).

Seo In Guk landed in seventh place. Having debuted in Super Star K, he made good use of the prize, 100 million KRW (about $72,285). The singer-actor once shared, “I gave it all to my parents, but they still haven’t used it for what I know.”

DinDin ranked sixth. Having been on a roll in multiple variety shows, he not only gave his mother a credit card under his name but also some spare money. On his parents’ wedding anniversary, he gifted them a car worth 100 million KRW.

Fifth place went to Jo Kwon. After making it big as a singer, he gifted a car and a house to his parents, and whenever he went abroad, he said that he bought designer bags for them.

Fourth place went to Kim Jong Kook. He bought his parents the apartment that they’re living in Anyang, which is to be priced at 800 million KRW (about $578,325). It’s also quite well-known that he travels with them from time to time.

Kim Junsu, aka XIA, landed at No. 3. He gifted a townhouse worth 1.8 billion KRW (about $1.3 million) to his parents in Paju. The house has a ginormous garden, and on the inside, it’s equipped with a karaoke room, a minibar, and a playroom.

Second place went to Park Seri. Saying that she doesn’t mind the money she spends on her parents, she bought land of 500 pyeong (1653 square meters) in the joint name with her father.

BTS’ Jungkook and Jin came in the first place. BTS, a global boy band that made a profit of 94.6 billion KRW (about $68.41 million) in the first half of 2022 alone, gave gifts of another level. Jungkook made headlines for the gift he gave to his older brother. The singer bought an apartment in Yongsan for about 2.9 billion KRW (about $2.1 million) in 2019, and the recent transaction price was 4 billion KRW (about $2.9 million). He gifted this apartment to his brother a year after he bought it. Jin, the eldest member of BTS, bought two apartments in Hannam-dong and another one for 4.2 billion KRW (about $3 million) since 2018 and gave them all to his parents. The current market price has reached 5.4 billion KRW (about $3.9 million).
