Actor Lee Jeong-seok revealed an anecdote about being a victim of stock fraud.

On the 5th, a video titled "Meeting with Senior Jewelry Jeong and Being Summoned to the Past" was uploaded to Hwang Jung-eum's YouTube channel.

Lee Jeong-seok, who met with Hwang Jung-eum that day, began by saying, "It's a story about when we played stocks to the extent of competing between my wife and me on who would lose money faster."

He said, "At the time, I had a conversation with a friend about the money lost in stocks, and that friend introduced me to someone else. That person recommended stocks, saying, 'I will help you recover all the money you have lost in one go.' I believed those words and invested in stocks, but from the day I entered, the stock price suddenly hit the lower limit."

He continued, "That person said, 'They are trying to fleece ordinary people. Do averaging down,' so I bought more stocks. But then I saw that the major shareholder of that company was selling off shares," which left him shocked.

Upon this, Hwang Jung-eum asked, "So what did that person gain from doing that?" Lee Jeong-seok revealed, "(The person who committed the fraud) was the major shareholder," eliciting even greater shock.

Lee Jeong-seok confessed, "They tried to lure in retail investors, fleece them all, and then exit (from the stock market)."
