Dermatologist and broadcaster Ham Ik-byung revealed that he has been living in Tower Palace in Dogok-dong for 20 years.

On the 23rd, Ham appeared in a video titled "Don't Make Excuses in Life. I'll Share Three Success Formulas for Those Who Want to Live Properly (Ham Ik-byeong (Director) | A Bitter Life Lesson for Adults)" released through the YouTube channel 'Salary Earner Rich People TV', where he spoke about his assets.

Ham stated that he lives in Tower Palace in Dogok-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, which was completed in 2004, saying, "I have been living there continuously since it was completed."

He continued, "I have moved several times. I first lived in Mokdong, then in Ilsan, and later in Gaepo-dong. When I was living in Gaepo-dong, Tower Palace was being built. After it was completed, I went inside and found it was too good," he said.

He further said, "It is good to live in a nice house. If there were an apartment built better in a better location than where I live now, I would want to move there out of greed. I have not yet seen such a house." He added, "I started in a single room during my childhood and kept moving. Because of my lack, I worked without a single day off for 10 years and kept striving. Later, in 1995, I introduced the concept of laser procedures in dermatology. In 1990, a laser machine cost 10 billion won each, so I spent about 700 million won to acquire five units. Since no one else was doing it, I made a lot of money," he said.

Regarding his assets, Ham said, "It is probably around 10 billion won." He also stated, "The standard for being wealthy is different from that of ordinary people. It is not about how much money one must have or how much a house must be worth, but about being able to eat at a restaurant without worrying about the bill." He added, "I tell my hospital staff in their 30s and 40s to buy a house first. All of them now own homes," he said.
