'The master of South Korea's brand logos,' Gu Jeong-soon, will reveal a '1,400 pyeong mansion' featuring 500 artworks, including a collection coveted by BTS RM.
Tonight (7th) at 9:55 p.m., EBS and E Channel will co-produce the program 'Seo Jang-hoon's Neighbor Millionaire' (hereafter 'Neighbor Millionaire'), where the 'first-generation CI designer' Gu Jeong-soon is set to appear. Gu has created logos for major corporations that are familiar to anyone in our country, starting from Geumseongsa, the predecessor of J&L, to K&C, G*Coll, and S*World over the past 50 years. Viewers will delve into the philosophy of life that led her from being unemployed after being fired from a company to becoming the owner of luxury buildings in Cheongdam-dong and the top figure of South Korean brand logos.
The mansion visited by Seo Jang-hoon and Jonathan showcases the impressive size of the '1,400 pyeong mansion,' perfectly situated with a backdrop of mountains and flowing water. Inside, it exhibits 500 pieces of art that are open to the public, attracting many visitors. Notably, it is reported that RM, the leader of the world-class boy group BTS who dominated the Billboard charts, has visited Gu Jeong-soon's house just to see 'one chair.' This chair is the work of legendary furniture craftsman George Nakashima and is renowned as the only furniture loved by Steve Jobs. Gu noted that the price of the chair is 'over hundreds of millions of won,' leaving Seo Jang-hoon and Jonathan awestruck.
Meanwhile, Seo Jang-hoon is expected to become another celebrity captivated by Gu Jeong-soon's house. Overwhelmed by the enormous scale of Gu's house and the various artworks within, Seo expressed, 'I need to work harder to earn money if I want to build a house like this later.' He couldn't hide his astonishment in front of a giant painting by global pop art master David Hockney, approximately 15 meters in size, saying, 'If this painting is this size, it could be worth the price of a regular APT.' He remarked, 'I would truly be happy if I could hang this on my wall at home,' as he immersed himself in admiration, which viewers can witness on 'Neighbor Millionaire.'
The EBS and E Channel program 'Seo Jang-hoon's Neighbor Millionaire', showcasing the success secrets of designer Gu Jeong-soon, known as the 'logo king' who acquired 500 artworks in a 1,400 pyeong mansion, will air on the 7th at 9:55 p.m.
