Han Seungyeon shows off her limited edition luxurious car on “Top Gear Korea 6″

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

Han Seungyeon of popular girl group KARA shared her love for cars and showed off her limited edition luxurious car in the recent episode of XTM‘s Top Gear Korea. 6.


Aired on February 15th, Seungyeon appeared on the show with fellow KARA member Goo Hara. Seungyeon revealed on the show that she owns a BMW Mini Goodwood, further revealing that it is a limited edition car with only 20 existing in Korea, surprising many with the fact.

She continues, “The body and interior material is the same of that of a Rolls-Royce. But the outside is much more beautiful because it lacks the bonnet,” further adding, “My first car was also a Mini Cooper. It was the 50th Anniversary edition as well.”

Top Gear Korea 6 airs on XTM every Sunday at 10:50PM KST.




1. [+987, -75] Look at her flaunting like that, she's clearly making more than she deserves

2. [+699, -44] This is why fangirls and fanboys are so pathetic... They take the money their parents work so hard to make and spend it on idols. I doubt they ever even bought their parents a proper birthday present while they spend extravagant gifts on idols all for that one Twitter message of them saying thanks~ love you~. Tsk tsk, go study in that time.

3. [+642, -23] There's really no point in worrying over celebrities..

4. [+40, -6] And all she needs to do is cry about having it hard on TV one more time and her fans will open their wallets and go to her next concert...

5. [+34, -4] Good for you. I'm honestly jealous. I'm the same age as her but she's already saved enough to buy a nice car like that while I'm living paycheck to paycheck every month.

6. [+27, -1] ㅋㅋㅋ She can't sing, dance, or act but she still makes this much money ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+27, -6] Grates my nerves whenever celebrities whine about having it hard on TV...

8. [+21, -5] Hey fans, there's your allowance money

-

1. [+8,407, -78] Yup, no point in worrying for celebrities

2. [+7,737, -65] KARA was the original work your way up from rock bottom idol group, what a success she's made..

3. [+6,649, -326] Basically bought it with the money fans poured on her

4. [+4,142, -71] Must've saved a lot to buy it

5. [+756, -13] She owns a building too ㅋㅋㅋ All that talk about working your way up from rock bottom is bull

6. [+615, -19] Doesn't she own a building too... damn, KARA must've made so much in Japan

7. [+547, -71] What a joke... she cried all the time about how hard she had it but she lucked out when she's not even talented on anything and look how much money she makes now. This is why everyone wants to be celebrities... She's not rich because she earned that money, she's rich because of her fans.

8. [+530, -68] Why does she have to flaunt it like that

9. [+456, -30] Han Seungyeon works hard but I work hard too and all I drive is an 8 year old used car... sucks that it doesn't matter how hard you work sometimes.

10. [+314, -11] Bought it with the money fans poured on her

lol why are these people so upset
lbr they'd probably be flashin' their money if they were hella rich too

[tree-star123.livejournal.com]

wtf are these comments

[donutism.livejournal.com]

Out of all screencaps they had to choose that one.

Anyway, she worked so hard to get KARA to where they are. Why so pressed, netizens.

And they are on top gear, what do they expect her to talk about.

dream car post pls!!

[cagallisakura.livejournal.com]

to the haters

mine's been an orange ferrari ever since i saw one on csi miami when i was like 13 or something

Re: dream car post pls!!

[angela-derp-otp.livejournal.com]

I bought one of my (affordable lol) dreams cars not too long ago and now we are paying for my hubby's car, but I really really want a Deluxe Bentley Continental convertible :(

Re: dream car post pls!!

[lightframes.livejournal.com]

In a dream world where the maintenance and gasoline wouldn't be ridiculous I'd have a Lamborghini Aventador.

Re: dream car post pls!!

My father is a Volkswagen enthusiast and I've already claimed our Karmannn convertible as inheritance


My little brother has called dibs on the 1960's truck art Beetle

[olive-101.livejournal.com]

i just really like Audis... I'm conflicted between different models LOL

Re: dream car post pls!!

[aneeleniffum.livejournal.com]

AUDI Q7 Y'ALL!

Actually all Audi models kill me. They're damn elegant.

Re: dream car post pls!!

[magicpineapple.livejournal.com]

1967 Shelby GT500, w/ the Eleanor colour scheme, a 1966 Shelby Cobra 427 Super Snake, or a Pagani Zonda.

Or, more realistically, a diesel Volkswagen Bug, lol. That was the best car I ever had (RIP Paula...)

Re: dream car post pls!!

[leighbee333.livejournal.com]

Mine's just a Honda Accord, lol. I'm a creature of habit and that's what my family always gets. It's safe and well-made.

I hate flashy cars.

never forget :p

[imienazwisko.livejournal.com]

Re: never forget :p

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

lol wth that was unnecessary

Re: never forget :p

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

omg lmao did they ever explain what happened here?

Re: never forget :p

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

that's hilarious

i cant stop replaying and watching gyuris sideeye

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

that's an ugly car

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

loool she looks so smug that screencap was def chosen for maximum outrage

[seroquels.livejournal.com]

lol @ that first picture.

She looks so happy and proud and the crowd behind her looks like they are so done (kinda like the netizen comments LOL).

[sjtaazrz.livejournal.com]

I can understand people being petty or jealous over this but I don't get all of the talk about how she's somehow using her fans.

If you think it's rude to "brag" or that there are more talented/deserving performers worthy of their money then fine, but it's like "fans, do you see where your money is going!" Yeah she's selling albums, concert tickets, or gets a CF deal and she's producing a product and then gets paid for it.

"Basically bought it with the money fans poured on her" yeah honey, that's how commerce works.

[agoongprincess.livejournal.com]

yasssssssssssss flaunt it girl

[angela-derp-otp.livejournal.com]

people being super mad omw.

That's an ugly car lol

[windygables.livejournal.com]

Lmao you go gurl. K-netizens are hella pressed as usual but considering so many celebs own luxury cars why is this even a surpise?
I'm likely jaded for this since I see these BWM Mini-coopers all the time where I live

[iftheshoefits88.livejournal.com]

seriously tho wtf are those comments?!

Basically bought it with the money fans poured on her

well duh? isnt that obvious. if fans didnt buy their albums, goods, or go to their concerts how else would they make money? complaining that shes made money and bought things from her group's success is so dumb. stay pressed netizens

[bumie.livejournal.com]

I didn't know there is a top gear korea!

[kingpsyborg.livejournal.com]

lol this bs. if it was a male celeb either nobody would bat an eyelash or people would be impressed (gd and his lambo, anybody?). this shit happens with top gear uk too, if a female guest doesn't know anything about cars she's a pointless bimbo, and if a female guest knows about cars or drives a nice one she's a tryhard or she's bragging. STAY PRESSED, JERKS.

[smilla-sini.livejournal.com]

I bet nobody said anything about Woohyun's Bentley...

[fancy-sheets.livejournal.com]

This

[cooliosa.livejournal.com]

exactly

[torontok.livejournal.com]

I like the model but wow, that car's colour is ugly.

[scheisse.livejournal.com]

lmao at the comments. what do fans think their idols do with the money they make?

[asth77.livejournal.com]

I wanna be rich in my twenties and get a car like this one as well is all I can think about atm tbh

[kicking-tenshi.livejournal.com]

The comments arent that bad??? A minority of them are nonsensical but I find myself falling between 5 and 6

[princetabi.livejournal.com]

for a country that loves to flaunt their wealth, netizens sure are pressed about this lol

[leighbee333.livejournal.com]

Right? It's a society with so much conspicuous consumption, idk why they're so scandalized by someone not hiding the material rewards they've reaped.

Well, I guess hyperconsumerist societies breed that "keeping up with the Joneses" anxiety.

I do agree with netizens that flaunting your wealth can be obnoxious, but they're being a little hypocritical, and are probably exaggerating her attitude/boastfulness, lol.

[waves-of-light.livejournal.com]

Ugh i drove up a hill today, and my poor car was lagging. i would love a tesla if money wasn't an issue

[olive-101.livejournal.com]

they sound so pressed lol

#1 and #6 makes me laugh cause they're evaluating how much she's "worth".

I'll never get what's so amazing about cars, that some people need 10 of them. o.O

[leighbee333.livejournal.com]

this

[hugtimes.livejournal.com]

honestly this is gonna sound weird but i struggle with having more than one car in online games, never mind having ten in real life you know?

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

The moment I saw that screencap I knew the comments would be messed up. I don't even like Seungyeon but those comments are too much.

Kara hustled just like SNSD and the WG since 2007...why can't she own something nice. I bet nobody said anything about male idols who went on this show.

[cooliosa.livejournal.com]

[lexissexist.livejournal.com]

Netizens are fucking dumb. It's a Mini.

[elementree.livejournal.com]
