Actor Han Jeong-soo (54) has begun criticizing the current administration.

On the 29th, Han Jeong-soo posted on his Instagram: "Circuit breakers were triggered yesterday and today consecutively. This is a situation worse than war or natural disasters, yet the government just watches? Are they crazy?" He raised his voice sharply.

He added, "The government suddenly introduced 2x leverage in May, turned the stock market into a playground for foreigners, and now ignores it as if it's none of their business. Are they really crazy?"

Furthermore, Han Jeong-soo remarked, "I have nothing to say," while also writing, "The world is going mad. The person who holds the position of President of the National Assembly is talking about President Lee's re-election. Is this like Syngman Rhee, Park Chung-hee, or Chun Doo-hwan? I am a former supporter of the Democratic Party."

On this day, KOSPI closed at 5,663.24 points, down 360.42 points (5.98%) from the previous trading session, while KOSDAQ closed at 662.68 points, down 43.17 points (6.12%).

Amid the sharp decline in domestic stock markets, program sell orders for both KOSPI and KOSDAQ were temporarily halted via sidecar mechanisms (futures market circuit breakers), and trading was suspended for 20 minutes due to circuit breaker activations on two consecutive days. According to Korea Exchange, this marks the first time circuit breakers have been triggered for both markets on consecutive days.

Netizens responded with comments such as "It's chaos," "This is tough," "My money has all melted away," "Investment is an individual choice, but a government that seems to stand idle in this situation only draws sighs," and "I'm mentally overwhelmed."
