[talk] Rise Sungchan from a rich family? Family education, Apgujeong origin, dignity maintenance expenses, luxury profile

RIIZE Sungchan is known to be from Gaepo-dong, Gangnam, and even before his debut, the 'golden spoon theory' has been circulating among fans due to his expensive brand clothes. If we examine his actual education, residence, and family background, as well as the basis for the 'maintenance fee' controversy, it is possible to assume that Sungchan's family has a different economic background than the average trainee.

 

 

1. Is it true that Rise Sungchan was born with a silver spoon in his mouth?

 

Seongchan is from Gaepo-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and graduated from Guryong Elementary School and Unbuk Middle School, both of which are part of Gangnam District 8. He later went on to Cheongdam High School, but dropped out to pursue his education as a trainee and obtained his high school diploma through the GED exam.

Considering the fact that he grew up near Apgujeong and Cheongdam and went to a private high school, many people believe that he can be considered an 'upper class child.'

2. Wearing luxury brands before debut? Suspicion of maintenance expenses

 

Sungchan became a hot topic for wearing expensive luxury brand clothes such as Chrome Hearts and Supreme in his pre-debut self-content and trainee photos. In particular, there were opinions that he was receiving a 'dignity maintenance fee' as items worth hundreds of thousands of won such as Chrome Hearts beanies and jackets were continuously exposed. Some fans also raised suspicions such as "A trainee wearing a full set of Chrome Hearts... Didn't the company pay for it?"

 

On the other hand, there was also a response that "if she was from a wealthy family, she might have bought it with her own money." In conclusion, there is no evidence that the luxury brand clothing was necessarily supported by the agency, but speculation about the 'economic power of Sungchan's family' continues.

 

 

3. Why did you choose to attend Rise Sungchan Cheongdam High School?

 

Sungchan entered Cheongdam High School while attending school during his trainee days, but he dropped out due to overlapping training and practice schedules and took the high school qualification exam. Cheongdam High School is a school that SM trainees often attend, and it is highly likely that the school’s location was considered for its accessibility to Gangnam-area homes or dormitories. The fact that he lived in the Apgujeong/Cheongdam area suggests that Sungchan did not go to Cheongdam High School simply because he was an SM trainee, but because his home was nearby.

 

 

4. Rise Holy Communion Family and Sports Career

 

Seongchan has played for the Guryong Elementary School soccer team and Unbuk Middle School soccer team. To be an athlete, you need to have financial means for equipment, training, and academy fees. He also played for a baseball team and participated in track and field competitions during his childhood, so you can guess that he has overall physical talent and a family environment that supports him.

 

 

5. What is the fan reaction to the golden spoon image?

 

Fans have mixed opinions about Sungchan's "golden spoon" theory. "If his house is in Gaepo-dong, that says it all", "It's a bit strange for a trainee to wear luxury brands", "Considering that he had him work out for a long time, it seems like his family invested a lot in him", "Among SM kids, Sungchan really seems to be from a silver spoon family". In this way, the possibility that Sungchan is from a silver spoon family is growing stronger based on past photos, education, and residence information.
