Song Joong-ki's House

In a press conference to mark the end of “Descendants of the Sun,” actor Song Joong-ki admitted being annoyed at being asked personal questions and losing his privacy. Unfortunately for the 30-year-old actor, the trade-off of fame and earning billions of won is being in the public eye all the time.

The actor may again be pissed off because a monthly magazine, Woman Sense, just released details about Song Joong-ki’s new house in its May issue, although it likely has his permission because he is on the magazine’s cover. The unit is an "S" villa in Bangbae-dong, Seoul. Just to give the magazine readers how expensive is the actor’s digs, it estimates the cost at 2.5 billion won ($2.2 million) and with a floor area of around 226 square meters, reported Soompi.

It adds that the villas are known for having luxurious exterior and comfortable interior. According to Im Seok-jin, the person who planned the “S” villa, the interior design is minimal and there is nothing superfluous. But they used luxurious finishing materials, built a high wall and put in place an entry system which bars outsiders from entering, reported Hancinema.

The villas have tight security system and 24-hour security guard service. The tight security is understandable because it is not only Song Joong-ki who lives in the secured community but also other actors such as Kim Jung Eun, Lee Na Young, Go Gyun Jung and Won Bin.

However, the actor’s parents still live in their family house in Daejeon, and that neighborhood is not a gate community so fans who are in the area take selfies in front of their house. That is something they cannot do in Song Joong-ki’s Bangbae-dong “S” villa.
