- Bigbang’s G-Dragon reportedly let his military service friends use the elite card freely, while BTS’ Jin failed to buy snacks from a vending machine with the card
- The most coveted cards include Hyundai Card’s The Black, Samsung Card’s Raume O, Hana Card’s Club 1 and KB Kookmin Card’s Tantum – all coming with A-list perks
In the world of K-pop, a black credit card signifies a celebrity’s larger-than-life bank account and immense yearly spending. Only millionaire K-idols can get their hands on these coveted status symbols, if at all. Various sources say these ultra-exclusive cards are only offered by invitation and are not available for order. They are famously known as the “limitless black card” because, as the name suggests, there is no upper spending limit.
Other than the spending powers granted to owners, black cards also offer plenty of coveted perks. Plane ticket upgrades are said to be among these, as well as coupons and vouchers for luxury brands, and services such as spas, hotels and more.
Four of the most expensive credit cards in terms of annual fees are Hyundai Card’s The Black, Samsung Card’s Raume O, Hana Card’s Club 1, and KB Kookmin Card’s Tantum, according to KoreaBizWire.
So who among our favourite K-pop idols are lucky black card holders, and what do they purchase with it?
