It was reported that an apartment in Gimpo City owned by actress Kim Sa-rang (48) was seized by tax authorities due to 'unpaid national taxes'.

According to Yonhap News on the 15th, on the 6th of last month, an apartment in Gimpo, Gyeonggi Province, owned by Kim Sa-rang, was seized by Samsung Tax Office (Seoul Gangnam-gu) due to unpaid national taxes. The media reported, "According to the real estate registration records, the seizure right holder is listed as 'National' (representing the government), the disposing agency as 'Director of Samsung Tax Office', and the registration cause as 'Tax Collection Division'."

Kim Sa-rang currently owns one household in a Cheongdam-dong apartment in Seoul Gangnam-gu and one household in an apartment in Gimpo, Gyeonggi Province. Among these, only the apartment in Gimpo City was seized; details regarding the seizure of the Cheongdam-dong apartment remain unconfirmed.

The public appraisal price of the seized apartment (as of January 2026) is known to be 366 million won, and the recent market trading price is reported to be around 600 million won. Tax authorities enforce real estate seizures based on the 'public appraisal price' rather than the actual transaction price.

A Samsung Tax Office official told Yonhap News, "We cannot disclose specific reasons or amounts of Kim Sa-rang's tax arrears due to the Personal Information Protection Act."

Kim Sa-rang debuted in the entertainment industry by being selected as Jin (First Runner-up) in the 44th Miss Korea pageant in 2000. Recently, she opened a personal YouTube channel and launched a challenge as a 'YouTuber', drawing significant attention.
