Who Is The Rich CEO Caught Up In Marriage Rumors With Suzy? Get To Know Him
Singer-actress Suzy was recently at the center of shocking marriage gossip. The man named as her supposed partner? None other than APR CEO Kim Byung Hoon.
The rumor exploded online, claiming Suzy would soon marry a company CEO. Her agency, Management SOOP, was quick to issue a denial and shut down the speculation.
SO, WHO EXACTLY IS KIM BYUNG HOON?
Dubbed the “chaebol of the beauty world,” the 37-year-old businessman is a massive success story. He took his company, APR, public last year and achieved a staggering feat: he propelled it to become the number one beauty brand in Korea by market capitalization in just 17 months.
THE BILLIONAIRE BEAUTY MAGNATE
Kim’s business empire includes a portfolio of hugely popular brands like MediCube, AprilSkin, Nerdy, and Photogray. Under his visionary leadership, APR’s stock price has skyrocketed, soaring from its listing price to an incredible peak.
Kim personally owns a dominant 31.35% of APR, a stake that solidifies his status as a top industry billionaire.
BEYOND THE BOARDROOM: A PUBLIC FIGURE
Kim Byung Hoon is not just known for his business acumen. He has a keen eye for marketing, enlisting A-list stars like Kim Hee Sun, IVE’s Jang Wonyoung, and the nation’s MC, Yoo Jae Suk, as brand models.
He has also gone viral himself, with photos alongside top celebrities sparking comments about his striking resemblance to actor Song Joong Ki.
While the marriage rumor with Suzy was quickly debunked as baseless gossip, it catapulted Kim Byung Hoon into the trending spotlight—making the billionaire beauty CEO famous for reasons far beyond his business triumphs.
