Model Yano Shiho said that Tokyo real estate prices have risen sharply over the past few years.<\/p>\n

A video titled “Visiting my close friend Byun Jung-soo\u2019s mansion (ft. 10 years of friendship)” was uploaded to the YouTube channel “Yano Shiho” on the 24th.<\/p>\n

That day, Yano Shiho visited the home of broadcaster Byun Jung-soo, whom she has known for more than 10 years. After touring the spacious yard, French-style kitchen, dressing room, and terrace, she exclaimed, “It\u2019s so nice. I feel like everything about my sister is reflected in this house.”<\/p>\n

When the production team later asked whether she had ever wanted to move to the city, Byun Jung-soo said, “Not at all. It takes an hour and a half to get to Seoul, but I like that I can hear birds in the morning and there\u2019s no car noise.”She added, however, that there was one problem. “The house price is the same as it was 17 years ago,” she said.<\/p>\n

After hearing that, Yano Shiho said, “Still, I think this house would sell for a lot. It\u2019s so nice.” Byun Jung-soo replied, “No one comes,” drawing laughter.<\/p>\n

When Byun Jung-soo then asked, “Is your house owned outright?” Yano Shiho answered, “Yes. The house price has tripled.” Byun Jung-soo jokingly responded, “I said mine has stayed the same for 17 years, and you say that?” making everyone laugh.<\/p>\n

Yano Shiho explained, “But housing prices in Japan are so high now that it is not easy to sell. Since all home prices have tripled, even if you sell, you end up having to buy a more expensive house.”<\/p>\n

In fact, Japan\u2019s real estate market has continued to rise in recent years. Based on the 2026 Officially Assessed Reference Land Price, both residential areas in Tokyo and commercial areas in Tokyo have risen for five consecutive years. Analysts say urban redevelopment, an increase in tourists, and steady housing demand are driving the price gains.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Yano Shiho married mixed martial arts fighter Choo Sung-hoon in 2009, and they have a daughter, Choo Sarang. The family previously drew attention after revealing their Tokyo home, which was reportedly worth about 5 billion won.<\/p>\n
