STYLE thumbed up to present this list of the biggest report idol splurges. Here’s what we know.

Just as we guessed, ostentatious, larger-than-life rapper G-Dragon apparently has more prized cars than any other K-pop star. When it was reported that G-Dragon was the Korean idol with the most expensive cars last year by Mnet’s TMI News, host Jun Hyun-moo couldn’t fake his lack of surprise, quipping: “G-Dragon makes 1.4 billion won (US$1.3 million) every year just from his songs’ copyright alone. He wears clothes that you can’t even put a price tag on, and he even moved to a penthouse worth 9 billion won (US$8 million).”
His collection is known to include three prized limited edition motors: a Bentley Continental GT, Lamborghini Aventador and a Rolls-Royce Phantom. According to Koreaboo, the Bentley is valued at around US$350,000 even without adding any options, while the personally tuned-up Lamborghini is worth US$500,000. But that’s not GD’s most expensive motor. The Rolls-Royce – a “ghost car” said not to make any audible engine sound – is worth a jaw-dropping US$650,000.
Now, it’s well known G-Dragon and widely rumoured partner Jennie from Blackpink like to mimic each others’ fashion choices – can we expect to see them behind the wheel of matching motors soon too?
