Singer Yuk Joong-wan revealed the story behind missing out on the opportunity to purchase a building worth over 4 billion won.

The MBC variety show "Radio Star," which aired on the 28th, featured a special episode titled "I Will Become a Private Citizen~," with guests Lee Gye-in, Yoon Taek, Yuk Joong-wan, and Kim Min appearing on the program.

On that day, when it was mentioned that he had once torn up something equivalent to a 4 billion won lottery ticket in the past, Yuk Joong-wan recalled his days living in a rooftop room in Mangwondong.

Yuk Joong-wan stated, "When I lived in a rooftop room in Mangwondong, I got along very well with the residents. We treated each other like family." He added, "One day, perhaps after seeing news of my marriage on TV, the residents came to visit me one by one."

He continued, "Everyone asked, 'You don't have a house, do you?' and introduced me to some land. They told me not to move out and to keep living there, even sharing information about a prime property that wasn't listed with real estate agencies."

In particular, he received an extraordinary offer from the landlord of the rooftop building where he was residing at the time. Yuk Joong-wan recounted, "The elderly landlord came over and said, 'This is really cheap. I'll sell it to you for 850 million won, so please make sure to buy it. I won't sell it to anyone else.'"

At the time, Yuk Joong-wan had 300 million won in cash. He shared, "When I said I had 300 million won in cash, the elderly man even told me how to get a loan." However, he admitted, "I was afraid. Since I didn't know anything about financial management, I declined."

He added, "After that, he kept coming by two or three more times. But the current market value of that building is 4 billion won," revealing a surprising fact.

The difference between the purchase price offered at the time and the current market value amounts to a staggering 3.15 billion won.

Yuk Joong-wan further added, "Not only that, but my neighbors introduced me to ten properties in Mangwondong. At that time, a 50-pyeong unit in Mangwondong cost around 600 million won," adding to the sense of regret.
