Q1. Why did you decide to appear on the program exploring the rich, ‘The Millionaire Next Door’?

More than anything, I am happy to be able to participate in a program with such a good purpose.

Q2. Seo Jang-hoon, the ‘2 trillion won property theory’ is always mentioned. Did you feel any pressure while taking on the program exploring the rich?
