Kwak Ji-hyun collected KRW 60 million more when asked if there was any change in turning 27 after more than a year. It's not an investment, but I saved it harder and saved it." He surprised MC Yoo Jae-suk and Jo Se-ho.
Kwak Ji-hyun `It took four years and two months to raise 100 million won. I saved 25 million won a year. "At that time, I received a monthly salary of 1.52 million won as the lowest hourly wage, but I wanted to save 100 million won, so I worked part-time after work."He said that the part-time job generated an additional income of about 800,000 won a month. In addition, he earned an additional 200,000 to 300,000 won a month through 'AppTag'. As a result, he explained that his monthly income was about 2.7 million won.
In particular, Kwak Ji-hyun "The monthly cost of living was 200,000 to 300,000 won. The mobile phone also used an affordable phone. The fee for 11 months was 110 won", he said, adding that he received water and used it to save gas and water bills, set the boiler at 13 degrees, and cut his own hair instead of a hair salon.

Kwak Ji-hyun said, `When I was in the second grade of elementary school, my father fell ill with a vase. I couldn't control my anger, so he shouted, broke things, and even touched my family. The company also went without permission two or three times, and eventually got fired.'"So my mom had to feed us. He was a housekeeper, but he went to the factory and did simple labor. But if there is no rice in the barn, people's hearts will run out. My family did the same."
He "My parents fought every day. I woke up to the sound of my mom and dad fighting every day and went to school. These situations have lasted for more than a few years,' he said. "'I originally had an older sister, but I ended up in heaven because I couldn't stand it when I was in the second grade of middle school.'"
Then "There was nothing I could do at that age. When I became a senior in high school after a while, I really didn't want to become an adult. I didn't want to live like my parents. I'm old enough to be responsible for my life, and I didn't want to. Also, my friends around me said they were going to college, but tuition fees were a stumbling block for me. So I was like, "How do I live?"' It was really frightening."
However, Kwak Ji-hyun did not hesitate to sit in reality. He said, "'I'm going to take care of myself more than others and take responsibility for my life."' I decided. The determination seems to have persisted thus far."
Since then, Kwak Ji-hyun has been interviewed by the production team, saying, `As the family is unstable, the family has shown the bottom. The family is the one to rely on and encourage, but we couldn't. They were uneasy with each other"I've also witnessed my sister make extreme choices several times. So I was very scared and I wanted to endure it"He confessed.
Kwak Ji-hyun said why he set a goal of 100 million won:"I thought 100 million was money that my family could live without suffering and worry."I'm proud of the current results, including 260 million won in apartment subscription." I lived too hard and lived well."
