In the latest episode of KBS 2TV show Stars’ Top Recipe at Fun-Staurant, cast member and K-Pop icon Kim Jaejoong revealed some of the surprising elements of his lifestyle.
During this episode, the singer went shopping for ingredients before his next overseas trip. As the frugal person he is, Jaejoong arrived at a wholesale mart where he could buy ingredients in bulk.
After moving through the different isles, vocally excited about how cheap each item was at the mart, Jaejoong finally went to the checkout. In complete contrast with his excitement at the low prices a few moments ago, the singer pulled out a black card to pay for the groceries.
As soon as the rest of the cast members noticed it during the replay, everybody was left shocked at Jaejoong’s wealth. The Black Card is an ultra-exclusive card with no spending limit, reserved for the super-wealthy. It is said that only the top 0.05% earning Koreans possess this card, which is usually available only by invitation.
Kim Jaejoong then revealed that he had been using this exclusive card for over a decade. “I’ve been using it for twelve years now,” he explained, leaving his castmates in awe.
