Assassin(s) star Lee Min-ho's home is on the former site of the “Yuk Young-soo Apartments”
The film Assassin(s), starring Lee Min-ho, dealt with the shooting of the late Yuk Young-soo but sparked controversy over historical distortion. Now it’s drawing attention after it emerged that the luxury villa where Lee Min-ho lives in Nonhyeon-dong, Gangnam District, Seoul, was built on the former site of Jeongsu Apartments, which Yuk Young-soo established.

So what? (Breaking) The home of an anonymous theqoo user who watched Assassin(s) is on “land in the Republic of Korea once ruled by Park Chung Hee.” Why not run an article like that too
What’s the problem...?? I genuinely don’t get it lol. Under capitalism, if you need land, you pay for it and own it. So what if it’s the site of an apartment someone used to live in...???????
Nobody gave Lee Min-ho the place for free, and if he paid for it, doesn’t that make it even more impressive? The way they’re talking, you’d think someone did him a favor. By that logic, did they create the land of the Republic of Korea too?
