The singer Kwon Eun-bi, loved as the "Waterbomb goddess," is receiving praise for a generous flex toward those around her.
Kwon Eun-bi granted an appearance on the MBN variety show "Don-Makase" that aired on 7th. In particular, Kwon Eun-bi showed special affection for her family on that broadcast.
Kwon Eun-bi, who said she has an older brother one year her senior, said, "I covered all the expense for my brother's wedding," which surprised many. She said, "When I was young I wanted to go to 예고 (arts high school), but my parents opposed it. I worried I might have to give it up because academy fees cost a lot, and at that time my brother, who was a high school student, secretly added a bit to my entrance exam academy fees without our parents knowing," she revealed.
She said, "I was so grateful then. I promised myself, 'I will definitely succeed and help my brother.' I wanted to keep that promise." But she added that she has refrained from helping since the wedding. Kwon Eun-bi said, "My brother seemed to feel burdened. So after that I decided not to help. When I try to help, he says 'it's okay' and refuses. That is both heartwarming and makes me feel sorry. He could accept help, but he is someone who insists on doing things on his own," she added, adding warmth.
This is not the first time Kwon Eun-bi has offered financial help to those close to her. She also appeared as a guest on the MBC variety program Omniscient Interfering View and revealed that she purchased a building worth 2.4 billion won. She opened the shop herself to realize her childhood dream of being a "cafe owner," and managers of Kwon Eun-bi were also living in that building.
Regarding this, Kwon Eun-bi said, "I offered building residency because I wanted to help. Even if another entertainer becomes in charge, I want them to be able to live as much as they want," she explained. She also furnished the apartments with household goods and set low monthly rents. In response, the managers emphasized that Kwon Eun-bi is "an almost perfect landlord."
Kwon Eun-bi, who became a topic of conversation as the "Waterbomb goddess" after her hit song "Underwater" climbed back up the charts, drew hot interest with news that she became a building owner in the 2 billion won range, but her charitable acts toward those around her are drawing even more praise. Attention is further focused on Kwon Eun-bi's moves.
