She also shared a poignant anecdote: senior actors like Kim Yong-gun and Im Ha-ryong would often pick up the bill and offer encouragement when they bumped into one another at the restaurant, a memory that warmed viewers.<\/p>\n<p>After the meal, Kim \u2014 long known for her interest in interior design \u2014 toured a furniture showroom and gallery, showing off her eye for aesthetics. She spotted a shelf she thought would be ideal for displaying art and said she planned to buy it, only to grimace when she read the price tag.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/contents-cdn.viewus.co.kr\/image\/2026\/04\/CP-2023-0073\/image-bffbf44a-184d-48f9-bec8-d575b85105c5.jpeg\" alt=\"&nbsp;Kim Sook TV\" \/><figcaption>&nbsp;Kim Sook TV<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The shelf was priced at 13 million KRW (\u2248 $9,750). The desk on display was in the 7 million KRW range (\u2248 $5,250), and a cabinet set topped 20 million KRW (\u2248 $15,000). Kim quipped that even a single chair could run around 10 million KRW (\u2248 $7,500), and she playfully backed out of buying anything, sending the crew into laughter.<\/p>\n<p>An avid student of art, Kim then spent the afternoon seriously examining pricey paintings. She studied works starting at 250 million KRW (\u2248 $187,500) and expressed satisfaction with the Rodeo-district route, which clearly suited her tastes. Closing the video, she referenced a piece she\u2019d seen earlier valued at 15 billion KRW (\u2248 $11,250,000) and deadpanned, \u201cShould I bid on it?\u201d \u2014 a characteristic joke that wrapped the day on a light note.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, Kim sparked conversation when she addressed rumors that Song Eun-yi\u2019s fortune was 10 billion KRW (\u2248 $7,500,000) by saying, \u201cShe hasn\u2019t saved as much as people think \u2014 I\u2019ve saved more,\u201d an offhand remark that hinted at her own financial standing.<\/p>\n<p>Im Chae-ryeong, TenAsia
