Singer Kim Kwang-jin revealed his unexpected background as both a securities professional and an SM Entertainment artist.

On the 6th, Kim Kwang-jin appeared on MBC's variety program 'Omniscient Interfering View' (hereinafter 'Jeonchamsi') and shared his daily life.

On this episode, Song Eun-i mentioned Kim Kwang-jin's past work at a securities firm, saying, "You didn't just work there casually; you even invested in Jeon Ryak (Head)," surprising everyone.

Kim Kwang-jin stated that he obtained the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst) designation, and Jeon Hyun-moo explained that it is far more difficult than becoming a certified public accountant.

Song Eun-i then added, "Your fund ranked first among all funds nationwide," expressing her surprise. Yoo Byung-jae asked, "Was it after 'Magic Castle' became a hit?" Kim Kwang-jin replied, "Yes, that was after. I worked during the week and performed only on weekends."

Regarding stocks, Kim Kwang-jin humorously remarked, "Since I mainly invested in small- and mid-cap stocks, I probably would have been fired three times if I were still in the industry. It's probably better to focus on music. Maybe this is where it ends."

Additionally, Kim Kwang-jin revealed his unique background as an "SM-trained singer." He said, "Han Dong-jun was the first singer, and I was the second," leaving the cast puzzled, noting, "You're different from other SM singers."

Kim Kwang-jin then explained, "After releasing an album with Han Dong-jun, Lee Su-man (Chairman) switched over," prompting Jeon Hyun-moo to joke, "Since Han Dong-jun and Kim Kwang-jin didn't work out, they decided to become idols," which drew laughter from the cast.
