TWICE’s Nayeon has just made a major real estate move—and she’s now living next door to one of Korea’s biggest stars, Yoo Jae Suk!

According to Herald Economy, Nayeon purchased a stunning property in the exclusive Brighton N40 complex in Nonhyeon-dong, Gangnam, Seoul, back in May of last year. The luxury home has a spacious floor area of 128.15㎡ and a price tag of a whopping 3.936 billion won. But that’s not all—just a few days later, she rented out the property with a deposit of 2.8 billion won!

Brighton N40 is a brand-new luxury complex designed by world-renowned architect Jean-Michel Wilmotte. Finished in 2022, the complex boasts five buildings, four underground floors, and apartments ranging from five to ten stories high.

There are only 148 high-end apartments in the entire building, making it the perfect home for A-listers.

And Nayeon isn’t the only star in the neighborhood! The complex also houses a number of other famous residents, including Yoo Jae Suk, SEVENTEEN’s Hoshi, INFINITE’s L, actress Oh Yeon Seo, and broadcaster Lee Hwi Jae.

Meanwhile, TWICE has been busy promoting their latest mini album "STRATEGY", which dropped on December 6th, keeping fans excited and engaged with their latest music.

Nayeon’s luxurious new home and her star-studded neighbors are just the latest in a series of major milestones for the TWICE member. We can’t wait to see what she does next.
