This is Jin’s third home in the same complex, which is also known to house stars such as Rain, Kim Tae-hee, and So Ji-sub.

In July 2019, he bought a 233-square-meter apartment there for KRW 4.5 billion (approximately USD 3.3 million). Later, in November 2019, he acquired another unit measuring 206 square meters for KRW 4.3 billion (around USD 3.1 million).
