Glee (28, real name Kim Dong-hyun), son of broadcaster Koo Ra and singer, spoke about his own income and the scale of his father’s wealth.
On the 30th, a video titled “I Went to a Matchmaker” was released on the YouTube channel “Kim Glee.”
In the video, Glee said he wanted to know what level he was at, visiting a matchmaking agency for a consultation after getting his girlfriend’s permission.
First, in response to questions about income, Glee revealed, “I was in the military last year and was discharged this year. The situation is ambiguous now, but when I was earning quite a lot, I made around 200 million to 300 million won a year,” sparking surprise.
He explained that his income has dropped significantly compared to the past, stating, “I was discharged this year, so my income is almost zero.”
The counselor exclaimed, “Entertainers definitely have different incomes compared to their peers.”
Regarding his assets, Glee said, “I own an apartment in the 30th-pyeong range in Guri. I can start my married life there,” adding, “It was not a gift. I took out a loan and secured it myself.”
He continued, “I have several tens of millions of won in liquid assets. I love traveling so much that I haven’t been able to save money well,” and said, “I own two cars: a Santa Fe SUV and an old car.”
Regarding financial support from his parents, Glee said, “I still receive some help, but I am financially independent,” adding, “If I get married, I don’t know my father’s stance, but it seems there will be some [support].”
In the process, the scale of his father Koo Ra’s wealth was also mentioned. Glee speculated about Koo Ra’s assets, saying, “I think it is either in the 5th billion to 10 billion won range or the 10th billion to 30 billion won range.”
On this point, Glee added, “My father has worked without rest for a long time. He also runs an economics YouTube channel. I don’t know his exact assets, but it seems he was smart and good at wealth management.”
Later in the consultation process, Glee received an evaluation that he is at the top 0.1% level among people of the same age. In response, Glee expressed satisfaction, saying, “I think I can stand a bit taller and live more confidently.”
Glee, born in 1998, enlisted in the Marine Corps in 2024 and was discharged this year. Recently, he revealed that he has been dating his girlfriend for a long time.
