Actor Lee Jung-jin shared updates on his past undisclosed stock investments.

In the tvN STORY variety program "What to do with what's left," which aired on the 27th, actor Lee Jung-jin appeared and honestly discussed anecdotes following his asset disclosure and his investment in private companies.

When asked why he had disclosed his assets during a consultation at a marriage agency in the past, Lee said, "My assets aren't anything extraordinary; I just thought it was better to be honest."

Previously, Lee had revealed on a broadcast that his annual income is around 500 million won, his jeonse (rental deposit) is 2 billion won, and he holds 200–300 million won in cash. He also stated he has about 500 million won in stocks and invested approximately 1.5 billion won in private companies.

In response, Lee Young-ja asked, "What would you do if people asked to borrow money?" Lee replied, "It happens a lot. I've received many messages via SNS DMs saying things like 'My daughter is sick' or 'My son is sick,' asking for loans."

Recalling the time he disclosed his private stock investment, Lee added, "When I said I invested in stocks, I was scolded. People would say, 'Isn't it dangerous to talk about private companies?' But that company was one I had been watching for over 10 years," he explained.

Lee Young-ja then asked, "So did they go public? Doesn't going public make money?" Lee answered, "They went public last year."

When Lee Young-ja remarked, "You said you invested 1.5 billion won in private companies," Lee responded, "I didn't invest in just one; I diversified across multiple places. One of them went public."

Lee Young-ja then asked, "So it's doing well? Is it a winner?" Lee smiled and replied, "It's very good," drawing attention with his expression.
