After years of living in a utility room with her then-boyfriend and later a one-bedroom condominium after they got married, local DJ-busker Karyn Wong finally got an upgrade.
On Friday , the 34-year-old appeared on the recent episode of Just Swipe Lah with Jernelle Oh to give a tour of her new "one-bedroom" home renovated from a four-room HDB flat.When asked about how she got through living in small spaces, the Ah Girls Go Army actress responded: "Looking back now, I really think it was quite unbelievable because we have quite a lot of stuff."
She mentioned how she "broke down" at times while living in the utility room because she would see other girls wearing different clothing while she only had "a few clothes".Showing off her new Japandi-style minimalist home, she shared that she knocked down the walls of a room to make her living room more spacious.Further into the living room is her work space, complete with a desk, piano and her busking equipment.
"Walking from the kitchen to the bedroom, I thought, wow my house is so big... I felt so tired and I would feel so breathless," added Karyn.Two different types of pink tiles are used for the walls, and the floor is laid with terrazzo tiles.The room in question though was so bare that it took Jernelle by surprise.The room only had one queen bed, with not even a bedside table.At least she won't be going through a fashion crisis anytime soon.
