Comedian Ji Suk-jin laments stock market losses: 'Sold at 100,000 won, it hit 200,000 won'

On the YouTube show 'Salon de Drip,' hosted by Jang Do-yeon, comedian Ji Suk-jin confessed his woes in the stock market. While fellow guest Mimi expressed a preference for tangible assets over stocks, Ji offered advice based on his own negative experiences. He suggested long-term investment in ETFs with long listing periods, humorously noting that he was sharing lessons learned from his own failures. "It's strange, only I seem to fail. Even if I pour everything into stocks, I'm the only one in the negative," Ji lamented. He shared a particularly painful experience with Samsung Electronics, which he bought in the 80,000 won range. He finally sold his shares when they briefly surpassed 100,000 won, even implementing a staggered selling strategy. His wife also sold her shares upon his advice. "Now I don't tell anyone. After selling, it went up to 200,000 won. It hurts my heart when it goes up after I sell," he admitted, highlighting the emotional toll of mistiming stock sales. This anecdote resonates with many who have experienced similar market frustrations, underscoring the unpredictable nature of investing.
