Actor Kim Bo-sung shocked audiences by revealing a story of losing assets equivalent to two apartments in Gangnam through stock investment. He confessed that it was not a simple investment failure, but a choice made to maintain 'loyalty,' drawing attention as he expressed his sincere desire to practice larger-scale donations rather than seeking massive profits.

On the June 6 broadcast of the KBS 2TV variety program 'maljashow,' actor Kim Bo-sung appeared as a guest and candidly shared his investment experiences and the trial and error he went through in the process.

During the show, Kim Bo-sung began with a bitter smile, saying, "I almost lost my entire fortune while trying to maintain both my stocks and my loyalty."

He recalled, "At the time, after investing in a certain stock, I maintained my loyalty to it until the end. Even when profits were generated, I could have switched to other stocks, but I didn't."

He continued, surprising the cast by revealing that the stock price eventually continued to fall, and the value of the stocks he held dropped to 1/20 of its peak.

In particular, Kim Bo-sung spoke honestly about the scale of the loss incurred from this investment.

He confessed, "I essentially lost an amount equivalent to two Gangnam apartments," causing a stir in the studio.

Comedian Yoon Hyung-bin, who appeared alongside him, shared an even more surprising follow-up story.

Yoon Hyung-bin stated, "I heard that if he had continued to hold those stocks at that time, the current value would have reached approximately 50 billion won," leaving the cast unable to hide their shock at the unexpected amount.

However, Kim Bo-sung repeatedly emphasized that the starting point of his investment was not simply greed to make money.

"It wasn't an investment I started because I wanted to make a lot of money," he said. "I felt envious watching people who donate hundreds of millions of won rather than just tens of millions."

He expressed his sincerity, saying, "If I succeeded in stock investment, I wanted to make even larger donations for pediatric cancer patients and patients with rare incurable diseases. Since I started with that mindset, I hope there are no misunderstandings."

Kim Bo-sung is known as a representative celebrity who has continued various social contribution activities for a long time. On the broadcast, he once again emphasized his consistent interest in sharing activities for neighbors in need, pediatric cancer patients, and patients with rare incurable diseases.

A phone connection with Kim Bo-sung's Wife was also made during the broadcast.

Recalling those times, his Wife said, "It was something I started with the intention of practicing even greater sharing, but as the investment amount grew, we went through a truly difficult time."

She expressed her affection for her husband, saying, "From my position watching him, it was so heartbreaking, and above all, I was most worried about his health."

She also offered heartfelt comfort, saying, "I believe regret only makes the pain even greater. Since what has already passed is gone, I hope he takes care of his health first now," evoking emotion.

In response to his Wife's warm support, Kim Bo-sung nodded and showed his gratitude, while the cast members also applauded the deep trust and affection between the couple.

Even now, Kim Bo-sung continues his steady donations and good deeds, and through this broadcast, he requested social interest and support for pediatric cancer and rare incurable disease patients.

Immediately after the broadcast, viewers expressed sympathy for his sincere confession, with reactions such as "Health and family are more precious than 50 billion won," "It is impressive that it was an investment for donation," "His Wife's words gave a great resonance," and "It was a choice typical of Kim Bo-sung, trying to keep his loyalty until the end."
