Song Hye Kyo Assets: Where Does The Star's Money Go?

According to Koreaboo, Song owns a total of three properties in Samseong-dong. This is no ordinary neighborhood since it is one of the most expensive and luxurious areas in Seoul, Korea. To own one property is a mean feat - to own three is something else.
The first one she was able to purchase cost US$7.2 million at that time, the second one at US$2.5 million. Her third Samseong-dong property had a tag of US$7.6 million.

Her real estate assets extend up to Central Park in New York at one point. She used to own a Manhattan flat, which she sold in 2018.

In 2020, she put up one of her luxury properties up for sale at $7 million. Because the price is quite low compared to the market price at the time, some suggested that it was meant to be an emergency sale - all because the actress can no longer stand it and the memories it holds. Rumors had it that she and her ex-husband Song Joong-Ki have had a lot of memories there. But there were clarifications subsequently that this is not true.

Her money does not just go to real estate assets or luxury items, though. The actress is a known charity donor as well. She has donated to various causes, most of which cannot be discounted as only being a small sum. She once won a legal case back in 2016 and her immediate action was to donate the money away. The 35-years-old actress is not just pretty and talented, she has a heart made of gold too.
