Actor Kim Young-ok admitted she lost her entire fortune after being scammed by a close friend.
On the 14th, a video titled "87 years living: traits of people you should never become close to" was posted on the YouTube channel "Knowledge Inside."
Kim Young-ok, discussing human relationships, said, "Don't think 'just don't see an uncomfortable friend.' I've lived like this since I was young; some have mental issues and act strangely. Young people too," and added, "I didn't exclude or avoid them like 'I'll cut them off and not see them,' but I don't think life is about cutting all those things out. I think it's a widening of the area as you grow older."
She continued, "So I've seen a lot. I've seen people become depressed and develop pessimism and dislike the world to the point of leaving, and I've seen friends like that and many people, so I've witnessed regrettable times and situations, but I have a desire to live caring for those who are struggling."
When Seokyung-seok said, "People working in the entertainment industry are particularly often scammed," Kim Young-ok recalled, "That happens to me too; people inappropriately ask to borrow money. I was scammed when I was young. I gave almost all my assets to a very close classmate."
She added, "Oh my, I was so shocked then; it was a huge lesson. So after that I told my children to only give what I can give, only with what I can afford to give. If giving this would make me poor, you lose people and it's something that happens to the person closest to you. That can never happen. So I don't do money transactions."
On the criteria for judging a good person, Kim Young-ok said, "It's a person whose appearance doesn't change. The person you saw at first is still the same now. There are people like that. But if along the way you see them use tricks or reveal shallowness, you really lose all trust. And at this age you don't need many friends. Someone who has been unchanged from the beginning until now."
