People who have just started stocking are often said to be jurin these days, considering children.
There are people who recklessly imitate other people's lives, but Jurin is also increasingly investing in promising stocks looking for things.
On the other hand, there are beginners who are impatient about what to buy to earn a lot, when to buy, and there are many scammers who are aiming for such people, so you should be careful about that.
Reporter Seo-Hyun Ahn and Do-gyun Kim will deliver.

There is a report that summarizes the characteristics of Jurin these days in an easy-to-understand five alphabet called YOUNG.
Study stocks on'Youtube', invest in'daily' investment products as well as'unique' investment products that you like, share information through open chat'network', and feel free to play directly Is to invest.
Unlike the old ants, which lacked information, many of Jurin are new types of ants armed with quick information and knowledge acquired through collective intelligence channels such as YouTube and open chat.
Jeong Ji-won, 39, who runs an art academy, started stocking in earnest last year.
Investment information is obtained by subscribing to 8 YouTube channels, from high-end stocks such as Samsung Electronics and Hyundai Motors to Apple stocks to suit personal preferences.
I am investing with extra money.
[Jung Ji-won/Operation of Art Academy: I had some confidence that I couldn't make money with real estate.
Stocks are also a very attractive investment destination if you are looking at at least 5 years and more...

Choi Hye-yoon, a 25-year-old college student, is a real Jurin who was initiated a month ago.
With 500,000 won, I bought 3 domestic stocks and 1 overseas stock.
[Choi Hye-yoon/University student: 80,000 electrons, 90,000 electrons, and soon it will be 100,000 electrons.
He says he has to buy it now.
Everyone around me who I don't think I'm going to do starts, and seeing everyone do it, I think I should start right now...
.]
Recently, everyone is making money, but there are still many jurins who are late to'panic buying' due to anxiety that'I can't make it alone'.
This year, the number of hungry people continues to increase, with the number of new accounts opened by a securities company exceeding 50,000 per day.
And the number of scammers aiming for some hungry people who are chased by the urgent heart of "you have to earn quickly" is increasing.

In July of last year, Moo Heo started investing in stocks.
[Mr. Huh / Victim: Because the corona broke out, I couldn't work and I was at home.
My friend invested in stocks and said it would be okay to invest all stocks now (I started.)] After
investing 15 million won and earning 2.5 million won in three months, I became greedy and found a chat room for Kakao Talk, run by a famous stock expert It.
[Mr. Heo/victim: (Katalk profile) The face was the same.
With someone from TV...
.
I believed that the commission (profit) should be paid 13% deferred.]
I put 22 million won on the site that the chat room told me about and made a transaction according to the instructions, but one day the site suddenly disappeared.
Everything was a scam.
[Mr. Heo/victim: The exchange (site) disappeared because there was no more investment.
The police said it was pretending to be.
At once, this is a fake.] In
fact, when the reporters searched for famous analysts or so-called super ant investors in KakaoTalk, numerous rooms appeared.
Among them, we selected 4 rooms opened under the name of an employee of a famous securities company and requested a consultation.
You are tempted to make a big money by saying you are the expert.
These are fake rooms pretending to be experts.
[Seung-Hwan Yeom/Director of E-Best Investment & Securities: I think he asked for money there.
In the name of reading expenses or something like this.
So, of course, I thought he was the manager of Seung-Hwan Yeom, but he fell asleep.
At all.
He just knew then.
This is a scam.
He called the company and asked me, but of course I can't do it legally.
Securities company employees.] In
this case, it is better to be suspicious.
First, it is a company that provides one-on-one counseling on items online such as Kakao Talk.
Stock counseling companies can be divided into three categories: securities companies or investment advisors registered with the Financial Services Commission, similar investment advisory companies that simply need to report, and illegal companies that have not even reported.
Registered companies can consult one-on-one, but most are face-to-face.
For similar investment advisory companies, it is illegal to consult on one-on-one items at all.
So, if you are consulting online one-on-one, you should be suspicious.
It's good to be suspicious of excessive returns.
Most of them are tempted by the high returns of one or two stocks, and they make a tempting offer, saying that they make a profit of a few dozen to a few hundred percent per month.
However, the long-term return of investment geek Warren Buffett is 20% per year, while the living legend of hedge funds and Renaissance technology have an average annual return of 66% over the past 20 years.
Suddenly, it's good to be suspicious of other means of investment, such as cryptocurrency, or inducing you to use a separate site or program.
The fraudulent behavior through group chat rooms that inform you of recommended items for free is becoming increasingly diverse and sophisticated.
In particular, in the case of a private home trading system, financial authorities are urging you to never use it as it can cause loss of investment and personal information leakage.
