[Edaily Starin, Reporter Gim Ga Yeong ] Han Hae appeared on JTBC’s “Love War” as a special envoy and opened up about his experiences with failed investments.
In Episode 15 of “Love War,” airing on the 5th, a couple—the “Take-a-Break Youths,” who stopped job hunting after quitting their jobs—will appear and engage in a love battle, with special diplomat Han Hae making a guest appearance.
When the “boyfriend on hiatus”—who quit his job due to burnout—revealed that he had bet his entire fortune on stocks, Kim Hee-chul and Han Hae recalled their own experiences. Upon hearing that he had even invested part of his girlfriend’s spare cash and suffered a 70% loss, Lee Hyo-ri exclaimed, “That’s a disaster!” Han Hae shares his own bitter experience with his first foray into the stock market, saying, “I also got burned when I bought Hynix at 260,” and expresses concern over the “on hiatus boyfriend’s” risky investment.
Han Hae then followed up his investment failure story with a tale of business failure. Seeing his “on-hiatus girlfriend” vaguely express a desire to start a café, Han Hae shook his head again and revealed, “I’ve actually run a café into the ground before.” He went on to confess, “I ended up losing between 150 million and 200 million won in just two years.”
It is reported that Han Hae commented, “‘Love War’ is far more thrilling than ‘Solo Hell.’”
“Love War” is a show hosted by Lee Hyo-ri, Seo Jang-hoon, and Kim Hee-chul that brings relationships to a final showdown. Each week, couples facing conflicts appear on the show to air their concerns and decide whether to continue or end their relationship. Recently, Kwang-soo from Season 16 and Hyun-sook from Season 22 of “I Am Solo” appeared on the show and decided to continue their relationship, but it became a hot topic when news broke that they had broken up after the broadcast.
It airs every Monday at 9:50 p.m. on JTBC.
