Kim Jong-kook, Known for 30 Years of Savings, Reveals He Owns Samsung Stock Bought in the 50,000 Won Range... Joo Woo-jae Cries Out, "You Betrayer!"

Singer Kim Jong-kook, who has stated that he relied solely on bank savings rather than financial investments, confesses to being an unexpected shareholder of Samsung Electronics purchased in the 50,000 won range.

During a recent recording of KBS2's "Problem Child in House," airing on the 14th, the MCs candidly shared their personal investment experiences.

Yang Se-chan envied others by revealing, "Actually, I was a shareholder when it was in the 60,000 won range and I still held it when it reached the 100,000 won range," but drew laughter by sharing a lonely conclusion, saying, "I don't have any now."

On the other hand, Kim Jong-kook surprised everyone by sharing the behind-the-scenes story of his low-price purchase, saying, "I haven't done any financial investments for 30 years and only received a 2% bank interest rate in pure cash, but I don't know much about stocks. However, people around me told me just to hold onto Samsung Electronics, so I bought it. My average purchase price is around 50,000 won."

When Joo Woo-jae, his longtime savings companion, expressed frustration by shouting, "You're a betrayer!", Kim Jong-kook calmed him down by saying, "I have no intention of selling."

Stock expert Choi Go-min-su and macroeconomic expert Oh Geon-young appeared as guests on this day's recording. After hearing the so-called "442 tactic" revealed by Choi Go-min-su, Kim Jong-kook threw the studio into laughter by reacting as if his 30-year investment philosophy was shaken to its core, saying, "I must switch immediately. Why hasn't anyone told me this until now?"
