today's news about yong joon

this morning, i read an article about yong joon and his stocks with KE.

here are some of the details of the news from sportseoul. thanks to mariko for helping me out with the detail.

- amongst entertainment companies in korea only KeyEast [KE] is increasing the stock price while others are declining. [this is just my opinion, i really don't think that putting up own management company (which is the current trend for artists) is not a good idea now especially with the current economic crisis]
- KE registered a 70% increase in their stock price
- price last dec 30 closing of year 2008 was at 1920 won
- the increase can be attributed to the announcement of the collaboration of byj and jyp as well as with Digital Adventure in japan.
- yong joon total share is 4,380,000 stocks which is equivalent to 1,400,000,000 won (3,225 won per share)
- yong joon is the biggest shareholder of KE with 35%
- the article also mentioned other factors [writer's opinion] that may have contributed to the soaring of KE stock price . they are : BOFi increase in sales [obento, gosireh products], 'wls anime' related products are already sold to japanese companies, and the drama rights acquisition of 'drops of gods'
- KE worth is 4,080,000,000 won

additional info not in the news...
- it was in the news before that BOFs talents [particularly So Ji Sub and Lee Na Young] are shareholders as well of KE
