Hosts of People who were Manipulating the Stock Price
Through Star Marketing were Exposed

So-called “hosts of people” who were accused of gaining about 34 hundred million won in illegal-profits from stock price manipulation by overstating the contract that they made with the company where the famous Hallyu star Bae Yong Joon is a major shareholder, and illegal trading (通情賣買. suehan: I don’t know the stock terms, but it means they exchanged information or promise to manipulate the stock price) were exposed by the district attorneys.

(*bb: i think suehan might be trying to say info/insider trading…?)
On the 30th of last month, the criminal division 5 of the Seoul Southern District Court (Judge Kim Joo Won) stated that they arrested and charged the former CEO Mr. Han (39) of Goje which is producer and distributor of red ginseng for the violation of the capital market and finance investment law.

The prosecution said that the private lender Mr. Min (36) who received the stock price manipulation request from Mr. Han, financier, and an operation member were arrested for the same charges. They also stated that two brokers were charged without detention and one broker was issued an arrest warrant after the stay of prosecution.


According to the prosecution, they made a trademark license contract and an exclusive sales contract with Gorilla last November, in which Bae Yong Joon is a major shareholder. They were charged for false public announcement of an improbable supply contract without agreeing with Gorilla.

Seoul’s celebrity-owned restaurants:


June 3, 2011

Eateries owned by Hallyu stars give fans a chance to directly fork over their cash to their favorite celebsKorea is rapidly becoming known for two things, its food and celebrities. So it’s no wonder that the combination of the two has attracted attention.
If you’re all about the hallyu stars, but don’t want to sacrifice a few meals while staking them out, check out some of the most popular restaurants owned by Korean celebs.
Gorilla in the Kitchen: Bae Yong-joon


Gorilla in the Kitchen, one of the most-respected celeb-owned restaurants, is all about healthy food and the well-being lifestyle.
You’ll find no butter or cream in the kitchen and minimal salt in your food — a welcome change from the typically sodium-saturated Korean plate.
The diet-conscious can go for the “human-sized” portions (larger sizes are called “gorilla”), while the health-conscious can order combo meals, which in turn will get you a free health consultation on your sugar levels before and after meals. Although Gorilla in the Kitchen is known as Yonsama’s restaurant, the interior is surprisingly devoid of Bae Yong-joon paraphernalia.
It’s about the food here, not the famous owner.

  1. Does BYJ oppa still have interest in reopening Gorilla in the Kitchen in Seoul? While planning my move to South Korea, I was looking forward to trying the cuisine there. I believe oppa still has a restaurant in Japan, too. Can you give information regarding it?
