"Lee Jae-yong and Choi Tae-won Both Left the Chat": A Viral Photo Stunns Retail Investors

The stock market has been fluctuating wildly lately. There is a piece called the "SK Hynix Folk Tale" that has become a hot topic. What is it about?

Well, the story begins by saying, "When SK Hynix hit its peak price, everyone wanted to turn back time."

When the stock price was rising, people said, "I should have bought back then" and "I wish I could turn back time." But when a god actually grants their wish and rolls SK Hynix's stock price back to what it was a year ago, they become anxious instead.

It is praised for cleverly satirizing the psychology of investors who are swept up in FOMO (fear of missing out), worrying they will be left behind during a surge, only to panic-sell when a market crash hits.

An image parodying a group chat among the heads of Samsung, SK Hynix, and Hyundai Motor has also been drawing attention.

In the image, an investor asks, "Big brothers, is this just a market correction right now?", and the conglomerate heads leave the chat one by one without saying a word.

Amid the recent simultaneous plunge in large-cap stocks, it wittily captures the atmosphere where no one can easily view the market with optimism, resonating with investors.
