CEO Kang Yoon-sun's secret to KRW 300 billion in annual sales..'Because of a huge debt'



Kang Yoon-sun, the representative of a global hair franchise called the 'Three Millionaires in the Beauty world ☆', will enter the 'Neighborhood Millionaires' to reveal the secret of becoming a corporate CEO with annual sales of 300 billion won.

On the 28th (Wednesday), EBS and E-Channel co-production 'Seo Jang-hoon's Neighborhood Millionaire' (hereinafter 'Neighborhood Millionaire'), Kang Yoon-sun will appear to tell the story of her life. Kang Yoon-sun's hair shop, which started in 1982, has grown steadily for more than 40 years, setting a number of records including the selection of the world's top 10 hair brands in 2005 (source: Wella) and the top Korean industrial brand Power Hair Beauty Brand Shop for nine consecutive years (source: Korea Efficiency Association Consulting).

Seo Jang-hoon, who met Kang Yoon-sun, said, "Did you originally pick a gold spoon for his enormous wealth?" asks. Then Kang Yoon-sun "I was a waterless man. I was so poor that I didn't have the application fee for middle school"I am surprised by the reply. At the age of 17, Kang Yoon-sun entered the beauty technology school and got a job at a beauty salon and started working for a monthly salary of 20,000 won. And at the age of 22, he took on the reckless challenge of starting his first hair salon with a large debt for a few days. Having to pay high interest, this 'huge debt' eventually led him to success. His hidden story, from a penniless girl to a global hair shop CEO with annual sales of W300 billion, can be found on the broadcast 'Neighbor's Millionaires'.




Meanwhile, Seo Jang-hoon and Jonathan will visit Kang Yoon-sun's hair shop headquarters in the middle of Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and another eight-story building owned by him. Kang Yoon-sun's hair shop has 182 branches across the country and has 3,500 employees. Even Seo Jang-hoon and Jonathan are overwhelmed by the scale of large corporations that are worthy of the nickname "Three Beauty Professionals ☆". However, Kang Yun-sun surprises the two by delivering an unexpected plan, saying, `We will continue to increase the number of branches in the future.' The reason why he is not satisfied with such success will be revealed on EBS, E-channel 'Seo Jang-hoon's Neighborhood Millionaires' at 9:55 p.m. on Wednesday, the 28th.
