Well-Known Fourth-Generation Chaebol Idol Responds to Overstatements About Her Wealthy Background

Minnie is facing buzz over her family wealth after a lie detector video with (G)I-DLE’s Miyeon.

The controversy started when the host called Minnie “rich” and mentioned her owning three houses, including a park and a gym.

Minnie pushed back, saying parts were “exaggerated.” But she didn’t deny she owned three houses.

“Which parts are exaggerated?” the host asked.

Minnie:

“The park is more like a garden, and the gym is an exercise room. Also, the fortune teller is for the whole family.”

The host laughed, clearly amused by Minnie’s modest downsizing of her wealth.

Minnie comes from a high-society family in Thailand, making her one of the richest idols in K-Pop.

Her recent video with Miyeon featured a lie detector test that put these claims under the spotlight.

Despite the “exaggerations,” the facts are clear: Minnie lives a wealthy lifestyle befitting her family’s elite status.
