Take A Look Inside The Prestigious “Nine One Hannam” Complex — One Of The Most Expensive Apartments In Korea
Hannam-dong in central Seoul, nestled right by the city-piercing Han River, is an affluent neighborhood, to say the least. Its prime location, being surrounded by the river and the Namsam mountain, has fueled the neighborhood’s development into “Korea’s Beverly Hills“.
Many Korean celebrities, including K-Pop stars like BTS and EXO, live in this neighborhood — where river-view units in high-security apartment complexes like “Hannam The Hill” are sold at millions of dollars.
As of 2020 though, a newly constructed complex in Hannam-dong, by the name of “Nine One Hannam”, has throned itself “the most expensive housing in Korea“.
Comprised of nine buildings, each five stories high above ground level, this 341-unit complex is considered pretty much a “fortress in the middle of the city“. Guarded with an intense four-step verification system, the Nine One Hannam complex provides maximum security to celebrities who seek complete privacy.
The complex features unrivaled amenities, like its own trekking path and central park…
… a gym, a basketball court, and a golf course…
… a market, a restaurant, and a swimming pool…
… as well as other convenient areas, like a lounge for daily breakfast served by hotel chefs…
… a personal bike parking lot…
… and a luxurious party room for larger gatherings.
Inside the units, Nine One Hannam boasts high ceilings and spacious rooms — with the coziest floor plan still offering over 2600 square feet of pure space.
The more popular penthouse unit of 3200 square feet in size, like the one G-Dragon owns, costs a hefty ₩9.00 billion KRW (about $6.60 million USD)
Nine One Hannam has also welcomed actor Lee Jong Suk, actress Han Hyo Joo, and BTS inside its gates.
