Actor Ji Chang Wook shared his personal thoughts on investing in stocks.
On the 16th, a video titled ‘Nadeul-ineun Pinggyego’ was released on the YouTube channel ‘DdeunDdeun’. The episode featured actors Koo Kyo Hwan, Jun Ji Hyun, and Ji Chang Wook from the movie ‘Gunche’, who came together for a variety of conversations.
During the show, Yoo Jae Suk asked the trio about the content they’ve been enjoying lately. Ji Chang Wook gave a surprising answer, saying, “I’m really into US stocks these days,” which left Yoo Jae Suk laughing.
Ji Chang Wook added, “I started watching out of curiosity, and it’s been so much fun lately.” Yoo Jae Suk then asked Nam Chang Hee if he also invests. Nam Chang Hee replied, “I do. I’m a total investor. A ‘super ant’ (retail investor). My returns aren’t great. I’m not in the negative, but I’m staying in the positive. Since I only hold KOSDAQ stocks, none of them have gone up. KOSDAQ fighting!”
When Yoo Jae Suk asked about his returns, Ji Chang Wook simply replied, “They’re not bad.” Yoo Jae Suk joked, “Why are you sounding so grumpy?” causing the set to erupt in laughter.
Ji Chang Wook then shared his investment philosophy, saying, “Rather than looking for short-term profits, I trust the companies. For example, if there’s a company, isn’t there a higher probability that I’ll go bankrupt than the company will? Big companies are less likely to fail than I am. I think it’s much safer to entrust my money to smart CEOs than to leave it with myself.”
