[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Min Jun-young] Singer Jeon So-mi was seen driving a luxury foreign car in a video released on the YouTube channel 'I AM SOMI.' Her agency clarified that the car does not belong to her.
On the 28th, Jeon So-mi appeared driving a yellow car in the first solo reality show 'I AM SOMI' on her agency The Black Label's YouTube account. When she waved her hand out the window saying, "I upgraded my yellow car," netizens showed great interest in the car she was driving.
The yellow foreign car shown in the video was identified as a Lamborghini Urus, with a price tag of around 250 million KRW, sparking controversy over how Jeon So-mi, who had just reached adulthood, could own such an expensive foreign car.
Although the scene briefly appeared as a teaser at the end of the first episode of 'I AM SOMI,' viewers and netizens continue to focus their attention on it. At one point, even Jeon So-mi's father trended on real-time search portals, keeping public interest alive.
Given the situation, Jeon So-mi's agency The Black Label issued an official statement saying, "The car does not belong to Jeon So-mi." The agency added, "Related content will continue in episode 2 of the reality show 'I AM SOMI,'" dismissing the 'foreign car flex' controversy.
