BTS V, Jimin, and Jungkook Enter the ‘Top 100 Stock Wealthy Under 30’

The youngest line of the group BTS, V, Jimin, and Jungkook, has proven their overwhelming economic status by simultaneously entering the top 100 stock wealthy individuals under 30 in South Korea.

According to a survey conducted by the corporate data research institute CEO Score on the stock values of listed companies as of the end of last year and December 19 of this year, the three members, V (29), Jimin (30), and Jungkook (28), each hold shares in HYBE worth 21.4 billion won.

The Results of ‘Equity Investment’ Solidified by Chairman Bang Si-hyuk’s Gift

The assets they hold amount to 68,385 shares of HYBE common stock each. This was a gift from Chairman Bang Si-hyuk to the members before HYBE went public, and it is considered a representative case of asset formation in the entertainment industry, accumulating long-term assets through equity investment beyond simple activity earnings.

In the overall stock wealthy ranking, Lee Jae-yong, Chairman of Samsung Electronics (23 trillion 359 billion won), maintained the top position, while Chairman Bang Si-hyuk of the entertainment industry also ranked 10th overall with 4 trillion 123 billion won. The BTS members have reaffirmed their status as key figures in the growth of HYBE by joining the ranks of the wealthy alongside their leader.

Asset Value Increases Even During Military Service... Expectations for Full Group in 2026 Rise

Notably, the members' positions in the wealth ranking have solidified due to the increase in stock value even during their military service. Previously, other members such as RM, Suga, J-Hope, and Jin have also entered the '10 billion club', forming a powerful group of asset holders.

BTS is currently facing a massive project with the release of new music in the spring of 2026 and a world tour. Recently, they have been heating up the comeback excitement by releasing practice videos of the full group through fan community Weverse, and if their activities begin in earnest and HYBE's stock price rises, the members' stock values are expected to increase even further.
