Broadcaster Leo Ranta confessed to being the victim of an absurd pickpocketing incident while traveling in Barcelona, Spain.

Leo Ranta shared an update on his SNS on the 8th, posting a photo set against the exotic streets of Barcelona. In the photo, Leo Ranta draws attention with a warm visual, wearing a black sweatshirt and sunglasses perched on his head.

But unlike the pleasant photo, the accompanying message contained unfortunate news. He said, "I was pickpocketed of my gold necklace by a little kid, I'm resentful but let's laugh," revealing that he suffered an unexpected crime in Barcelona. Even in the frustrating situation where the gold necklace he was wearing was stolen in an instant, his attempt to control his mindset with his characteristic positive attitude evokes sympathy.

Meanwhile, comforting responses mixed with concern from acquaintances and fans have continued to pour in. Internet users commented, "He wasn't even holding it in his hand, how on earth did they take the necklace?", "You shine even without the gold necklace," "Let's think of it as having been given to the poor," and "You really have to watch out for pickpockets when traveling in Europe. Make sure to take your passport too," expressing worry and offering consolation.

Meanwhile, Leo Ranta, who is from Finland, continues active work across various broadcasts and content with a conversational style and friendly charm that are more Korean than Koreans.

He moved to Korea when he was 100 days old, so his native language is Korean. He said on a broadcast, "(Because I was) only speaking Korean, my parents sent me back to Finland for reverse schooling," and added, "I went there around the time I graduated elementary school to learn Finnish." He also candidly revealed that his Korean wife secretly divorced him, which drew a lot of support.
