Park Hee-sun, a cast member of Netflix's "Single's Inferno 5," has sparked attention by revealing the enormous cost of studying at a prestigious university in the United States.

Recently, Park posted a video titled "140 million won for one year at a U.S. elite university? The reality of studying abroad that no one tells you" on her YouTube channel, "Heesunny Day."

In the released video, while explaining the costs of studying in the U.S., Park stated, "If you exchange money at Hanwha, it comes to about 140 million won."

Simply applying this figure to a four-year undergraduate program results in a total of 560 million won. However, actual study abroad expenses may vary depending on exchange rates and living costs.

The video also drew attention on online communities and social media. Netizens expressed surprise, commenting, "Single's Inferno Hee-sun says it costs 140 million won a year for U.S. study abroad fees. That's nearly 600 million won over four years — the price of a house just to graduate from college," and "I'm currently an international student in the U.S., and there isn't a single word in that video that is wrong."

Meanwhile, after graduating from Incheon Chadwick Songdo International School, Park Hee-sun enrolled at Carnegie Mellon University, a prestigious institution in the United States, where she is majoring in Information Systems. She is currently continuing her studies as a visiting student at Seoul National University.

Park Hee-sun, who was crowned Miss Korea Sun in 2024, gained recognition for her appearance on Netflix's romance reality show "Single's Inferno 5," which concluded last February.
