Comedian and actor Kim Won-hoon announced that he suffered losses exceeding 20 million won through stock trading.

On the 3rd, a video titled "Kim Won-hoon, who started stocks at the peak | Ant Kim Won-hoon: The World of Stocks" was uploaded to Netflix Korea's official YouTube channel.

In the video, Kim Won-hoon said, "Almost an entire car's value has disappeared. I lost 24 million won," expressing his despondency.

When the production team asked, "How much was your seed capital?" he replied, "180 million won." Kim Won-hoon added, "For someone who bought just two shares, isn't that a lot of seed capital? I'm the type to go all in. If you get hooked on one thing, this is what happens," and laughed bitterly.

Kim Won-hoon stated, "I did averaging down far too much. It was like going through a water battle. I kept only adding to my losses. Don't people who dilute whiskey with water exist? Now it has no taste at all."

He continued, "As prices kept falling, I lived under the pressure and obsession of having to add water to lower my average cost. I'm talking about this now with a smile, but it was truly serious. I felt utterly devastated, lost 2 kg, had no appetite or motivation, and moved like a zombie wherever I went."

Kim Won-hoon recently started trading stocks at the production team's suggestion. He said, "I should buy everything at least once," mentioning Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix before purchasing three shares of SK Hynix at 2.76 million won each.

Afterward, Kim Won-hoon became elated or dejected as the stock price fluctuated by 3,000 won in real time. As of the previous day, SK Hynix closed trading at 1.567 million won.

Following the video's release, netizens commented: "He entered at the peak," "This is a horror movie," "But an entertainer's appearance fee is worth ten cars," "Reminds me of 'Ddum-ddeul' from the pandemic era. History repeats itself," "The timing was insane," "We're in the same boat," and "I wonder how much more loss there will be now. It's not funny at all."
