We tried to include all the secret stories about Korean entertainment industry in Kpop Secret. We want to share all the stories behind k-pop stars with fans all over the world. 
BoA lives in “Sangji Ritzville” placed in Cheongdam-dong, Seoul. Girls' Generation's Jessica is her neighbor. The 230 square meter villa has three rooms and three bathrooms, while it costs about 1.8 million dollars. The picture below is the exterior. 
Big Bang's TOP is also well known as an owner of a luxurious residence. He paid about 2.8 million dollars to buy the villa located at UN Village, Han-nam dong, Seoul.(UN Village is a famous rich village in Korea. There are lot of luxurious villas, and many Korean celebrities like singer Lee Hyori, actress Lee Young Ae, actor Jung Junho and more live in the village.) BIGBANG's TOP is also well known as an owner of a luxurious residence. He paid about 2.8 million dollars to buy the villa located in UN Village, Han-nam dong, Seoul. UN Village is a famous rich village in Korea. Lots of luxurious villas are there, and many Korean celebrities such as Lee Hyori, Lee Young Ae and Jung Junho live in the village. TOP's house has 4 rooms and 3 bathrooms, and its ratio of area for exclusive use is 181 square meter. 
Here are other Korean stars who own expensive houses. Kim Hyun Joong lives in “Paragon” Villa located in Cheongdam-dong, Seoul. The price is about 2.8 million dollars, and actor Cha Seungwon and actress Song Yoona are his neighbors. And Lee Minho lives in “Nonhyeon Lafolium” located in Nonhyeon-dong, Seoul. The 263 square meter villa costs about 4 million dollars. The apartment has golf driving range, in room movie systems, massage room, and other convenient facilities. 
Actually, in Korea, many people want to live in apartments rather than villas because it is more valuable as a part of investments in real estate. (The word “villa” is used in different senses by different countries. In Korea, "villa" has multiple meanings. Firstly, it means multiplex houses. Secondly, it sometimes means luxurious house. Some of villas in Seoul are much more luxurious than ordinary apartment. So, villa and apartment are totally different in Korea.) However, most of famous Korean stars need houses only for residence, not investment. In addition, there are too many residents in the apartment complex. That’s why Korean stars usually choose villas as their residence. There are relatively less residents in villas, while villas have better security system. And one more notable thing about k-pop stars’ home is that many of them live in villas located in Gangnam area. I'm sure you’ve heard about Gangnam. Literally, it means “South part of the river.” There is a Han river that across Seoul city, and we usually call the southeast part of Seoul as “Gangnam.” Gangnam has been regarded as a symbolic area of Korean high-class culture, and compared to other areas, Gangnam's house price is much higher, which means only people in a particular social class can afford to buy it. Gangnam is famous for its pleasant residential environment. So, it has symbolic value for k-pop stars to live in Gangnam area. Of course, there is another particular area that is regarded as the rich village in Seoul. Big Bang's G-Dragon paid about 2.8 million dollars to buy his high rise mixed-use apartment that is next above Han river. It is located in Seongsu-dong. He can enjoy wonderful view of the river in the luxurious residence. However, as many of Korean entertainment companies and famous beauty shops are located in Gangnam area, k-pop stars prefer to live in the area.

"Do k-pop idols really sing live? It's not an easy question to answer because the answer to the question could be both yes and no. Well, I want to talk about details about k-pop idols' live performance on the stage. Have you heard about MR, AR, LMR, and LAR? If you get to know about these terms, you will be able to have a good understanding of k-pop idols' live performance." MR(Music Recorded) Basically, MR means instrumental accompaniment. Have you been to karaoke? MR is like karaoke music which doesn’t contain the sound of singer’s voice. However, there is no k-pop idol who uses such a clear MR, while all the k-pop idols’ MR contains sounds of their voices. Before performing their songs on k-pop chart shows, k-pop idols should make their MR, and the way how they make MR is to decrease the sound volume of their voices in original music, while keeping the sound volume of instrumental accompaniment as it is. So, to k-pop idols, singing to MR doesn’t j... Read more 
As you know, Kpop girl group members look so innocent and cute. We usually describe them as 'fairy'. Then, how about their feet? It seems that they have tiny lovely feet. Well, what do you think?

Girls' Generation: Soo Young(Big foot) / Sunny, Jessica, Hyo Yeon(Small foot) Soo Young has the biggest feet among Girls' Generation(SNSD) members. It is 245mm. Is there anybody who are diapponted because Soo Young has too big feet? Actually, she is the tallest member too. She is 170cm tall. Let's make a comparison between Soo Young and Tae Yeon. Tae Yeon's shoe size is 240mm and she is 162cm tall. Yoona, Seo Hyun and Yuri's shoe sizes are also 240mm. Three other members have the smallest feet among SNSD's members. Sunny, Jessica and Hyo Yeon's shoe sizes are all the same as 225mm to 230mm. Does it fit your expectation?... Read more 
Stage Name: G-Dragon (GD) Real Name: Kwon Ji Yong Position: Leader, Main Rapper, Producer, Lyricist Birthdate: August 18, 1988 Birthplace: Seoul, South Korea Height: 177cm Weight: 58kg Blood Type: A Religion: Christian Languages: Korean, Japanese, English Hobbies: Collecting limited editions, writing lyrics School: Majored in Postmodern Music at KyungHee University Q. What is GD’s role in BIGBANG? As the main producer of BIGBANG, G-Dragon took part in writing most of BIGBANG’s songs. He doesn’t do all the things alone, though. When he writes songs, he hears a variety of opinions from BIGBANG members, and he shares his idea with Teddy, a famous music producer of YG Entertainment to make better music. But you can say G-Dragon plays the largest role in writing BIGBANG’s songs because he usually creates main melodies of the songs. And he plays a huge role in BIGBANG’s concerts too.

Have you ever been curious about k-pop idols' microphones? Unless you are a professional, it’s difficult to know the details about the microphones. However, there’s a very simple way to make a guess at what kind of microphone your favorite idol star uses. Well, the way is to classify the microphones by their colors. Colors of microphones do not always mean everything, but like I said, you can at least make a guess at what kind of microphones those are. Flesh-Colored Microphone You might see the flesh-colored microphones frequently in various k-pop chart shows. Those are the basic microphones offered by the broadcasting company. People in the k-pop world usually call it "Band-Aid." The microphone is cheap, and it doesn't perform well. However, it doesn't matter because not a few incompetent idols depend on their AR and just pretend to sing live. Black Microphone The black microphone is not offered by the broadcasting company. If an idol group's... Read more 
In 2014, EXO's Chinese member Kris filed a lawsuit against SM entertainment, insisting that his exclusive contract with the agency should be nullified. And he finally left the agency, while another Chinese EXO member Luhan also filed a lawsuit against SM in the year. And in 2015, Tao decided to leave the agency too. After filing lawsuits, they said “SM didn't respect us at all. SM has treated us like subjects of control and determined our schedules unilaterally. And we had economic difficulties despite much work.” Well, I think many of k-pop fans may consider unfair contract between SM and the Chinese members as the main reason why the idol singers filed lawsuits. You know, it was not the first time that SM’s idol singer filed a lawsuit against the agency. The former TVXQ members Kim Junsu, Park Yoochun and Kim Jaejoong had been in a legal battle with SM for about 3 years, while Hangeng of Super Junior has also filed a lawsuit against SM, insisting that his contract wit...

Kpop Stars' Luxurious Home: Where Do They Live?
Do you want to know where do Kpop stars live? Well, as you expect, top Kpop stars are financially able to purchase high-priced houses. Let's take a look at Kpop stars' luxurious houses. JYJ's Kim Junsu has his villa “Brown Stone Legend” in Samseong-dong, Seoul. It costs about 2.6 million dollars, while his team mate Kim Jae Joong also lives in there as Junsu's good neighbor. Actually, before being independent of his parents, he has lived in a detached house placed in Paju city with parents. The house has all the luxurious items like fountain and saloon bar.
