I'm Rich Bitch: K-pop Rich Kids

There are some kids who go from rags to riches and then there are others who are just born into money. Most K-pop idols are just regular Joes like you and me striving to follow their dreams and make a measly penny or two on their way. But where there are sufferers, there are also those that come from lots of moola. Here are the idols who came from wealth and fortune.

Super Junior's Choi Siwon comes from money. His father is the CEO of Boryung Medience, a pharmaceutical company. Before his father was a gangster CEO of pharmaceutical products, he was the President of Korean Slim Fashion. Choi's family is also rumored to hold shares in the Hyundai Department Store. So Shiwon, let me get this straight. You have a sick body, a face of a Korean angel, some musical talent, a devout Christian, and the only son of the CEO of Boryung Medience? Someone snatch this one up real fast before I do. I'm so shallow, God help us all.

2PM's Nichkhun's mama is a hard-working woman who is the CEO of a leading pharmaceutical importer and distributor company in Thailand called "Union Medical." Before showing off his abs in 2PM, Nichkhun was a student at the prestigious Wanganui Collegiate School in New Zealand where truckloads of influential and powerful people attended including Prince Edward, the Earl of Wessex.

Girl's Generation's Sunny is the niece of Lee Soo Man. For those of you living under a rock, Lee Soo Man is the father, the omega of everything pink and glittery in K-pop, of SM Entertainment. Pretty sure Lee Soo Man has got a dollar or two in his wallet which means Sunny will never have to worry about a failing music career or an empty back account.

Girl's Generation's Sooyoung has two huge houses and a garden which apparently in Korea means you're filthy rich. No one really knows how Sooyoung is rich but they call her the richest member in SNSD which means she's totally rich. 

Super Junior is just made up of a bunch of wealthy boys now, aren't they? SJ's vocalist, Cho KyuHyun's father has been running a successful school academy for the last 18 years. Just two years ago, his dad went on to open one in Taiwan and when news broke that it was KyuHyun's dad that was the owner, fans went crazy and attended the opening day in huge numbers. His mom co-founded an art academy and cafe alongside Leeteuk and Sungmin's mom. CHING CHING!
