Korean broadcaster Kim Gura recently shared the story behind his successful gold investment.

On the 25th, a video titled "Why Was 'Kim Gura' Mentioned in the National Assembly Audit?" was uploaded to Kim Gura's YouTube channel 'GreeGura.'

In the video, Kim Gura humorously discussed being mentioned during a national audit. He said, "They mentioned in the audit that 'Kim Gura bought gold five years ago, and his 100 million KRW investment turned into 340 million KRW,'" expressing his surprise at being referenced.

Kim Gura candidly shared, "I'm 55 now, and at one point, I had to shoulder a large debt due to issues with my ex-wife, which I have since repaid. I worked hard to earn money, and anyone can do basic financial investments."

Previously, on his channel, Kim Gura revealed his success with gold investments, which garnered attention. He explained, "A few years ago, gold prices surged. At that time, I thought about selling when it reached over 200 million KRW, but my wife said, 'You have money, why sell? Just leave it.' So, I decided to hold onto it, and recently, the price per ounce reached $4,000, and the value rose to 340 million KRW."

He added with his characteristic wit, "If it had reached 3 billion KRW, it would have been a big deal. I wouldn't have even talked about it. What's so great about it?"

Meanwhile, Kim Gura divorced in 2015 due to financial issues related to his ex-wife's debts and guarantees, which led to asset seizures. He repaid her 1.7 billion KRW debt within three years and remarried in 2020 to a woman 12 years his junior, welcoming their daughter, Suhyun, in 2021.
