Hyelin of EXID opens taco shop with KRW 140M monthly sales
Hyelin of the K-pop group EXID has allegedly opened a taco restaurant that reports monthly sales around KRW 140 million, according to a video reference and a sports-focused article. Hyelin describes managing multiple jobs, including music, DJ work, and performances, while running the restaurant. This explainer covers what is claimed, who is affected, and useful steps for readers seeking context or impact.
What is claimed about Hyelin and the taco business
The claims center on Hyelin owning or co-owning a taco restaurant in Seoul, with reported monthly sales of about KRW 140 million. A video on Cao Lu's YouTube channel is described as highlighting this level of monthly revenue. Hyelin is quoted discussing the challenge of expenses and managing multiple roles beyond the restaurant, including performing in musicals, DJ work, and music production.
Who is affected by the claims
The primary person mentioned is Hyelin, a member of the K-pop group EXID. The article notes Hyelin’s order of business, but there is no direct mention of customers, employees, or local communities beyond the general business operations. The claims reference a restaurant’s performance and Hyelin’s public statements about balancing several jobs with running a food-service business.
Practical next steps for readers
If you need to verify these claims, check the cited source link for the Sportschosun article and the YouTube video referenced in the report. Consider looking for corroborating reports from additional outlets or official statements from Hyelin’s representatives. For readers concerned about local dining, you can seek standard restaurant information such as hours, menu, pricing, and customer reviews from trusted local sources. If you’re researching business ventures, note the common takeaway in such stories: running a food-service business alongside other jobs can be demanding due to expenses and staffing changes.
Limits of the information and questions
The source data is described as untrusted. Specific figures like KRW 140 million in monthly sales are attributed to a single article and video description. No official business registration or financial documents are cited. Readers should treat the figures as unverified claims pending corroboration. Questions to pursue include: Is the restaurant officially registered and operating legally? What are actual monthly profits after costs? How many employees are involved, and what are their roles? Are there other independent sources confirming Hyelin’s involvement and the business performance?
