[Sportschosun Reporter Jo Yoon-sun] Broadcaster Kim Gura revealed that he sold his apartment in Cheongna International City at a loss.
On the 26th, the YouTube channel GreeGura released a video titled, "The era of selling Samsung Electronics stock to buy a home: How is the government responding?"
In the video, Kim Gura mentioned that he sold his Cheongna International City apartment last year. He said, "After I sold it, issues such as capital gains tax remained, so the tax accountant contacted me. He asked, 'What are you going to do?' and I said, 'There is nothing left.' He still said I had to submit proof documents, so I sent the materials and handled everything very neatly."
Kim Gura added, "The presale price in 2011 was around 830 million to 840 million won, but after balcony expansion work, the total came to 850 million to 860 million won. Since I held it for 15 years and lost 30 million to 40 million won, it was a loss."
He went on to say, "I made gains from stocks, so it is fine."
Meanwhile, Kim Gura is known to have bought Samsung Electronics shares at around 45,000 won and held them for a long period. Based on Samsung Electronics' closing price of 337,500 won that day, the estimated return comes to about 650%.
