Singer Seo In-young has expressed satisfaction with an 80,000-won ($52) bag she bought on Coupang Inc — not a luxury label.
A video titled "Seo In-young's 80,000-won bag revealed for the first time" was posted Friday on her YouTube channel "Gaegwacheoonseon Seo In-young."
In the clip, when the production crew asked about her bag, Seo said, "It comes in different colors. I got this on Coupang for 80,000 won." The crew, who had assumed it was a designer brand, were visibly surprised.
Seo explained her reason for buying it, saying, "No, I bought it because they call it a celebrity bag." She added that it fits her car keys, snacks and more.
When the crew marveled, "Having it in the Carnival makes you look like a real celebrity," Seo drew laughs by replying, "You didn't think I looked like a celebrity before, did you? I feel out of place here myself."
Meanwhile, Seo is set to remarry in December. Her future husband is a businessman six years her senior.
