Former Speed Skater Lee Sang-hwa and Entertainer Kangnam Reveal Their Second Home in Japan
Former speed skating champion Lee Sang-hwa and entertainer Kangnam have revealed that they own a second home in Japan.

On November 1st, the YouTube channel 'Insaeng84' released a video titled 'Kangnam and Lee Sang-hwa's Life in Japan.' In the video, Kian84 visits the couple's Japanese home, stating, "I once filmed Kangnam and Sang-hwa living in Seoul, and now I'm grateful to visit their home in Japan."

Kangnam mentioned his previous appearance on 'Insaeng84' where he showcased his home in Seoul, saying, "That was the house I lived in on rent during 'I Live Alone.'" Kian84 humorously added, "Now you've become the owner of that house," congratulating Kangnam on his property acquisition.

Kian84 toured Kangnam's Japanese home, capturing the Tokyo scenery visible through the windows. He noted, "Kangnam's home is near Haneda Park, so you can see planes up close. This apartment is in the neighborhood where Kangnam lived during his elementary school years, and he spends about a week each month here." He added, "Though it's hard to see, Tokyo Disneyland is nearby, and on clear days, you can even see Mount Fuji."

Previously, Kangnam appeared on MBC's 'Radio Star' in April last year, discussing his assets. He mentioned his YouTube channel, which surpassed 1 million subscribers in three years, saying, "Initially, I thought reaching 100,000 would be tough, but I was confident we'd hit 1 million within five years." When asked about managing his YouTube earnings, he revealed, "Even though my income has increased, my wife still has substantial assets from her Olympic pension, advertising fees, and international competition winnings. Her assets are about five times mine."

The couple tied the knot in 2019.
