Recently, a video that garnered over 3 million views featured Hwang Jae-won, who claimed to have succeeded in wave power investment after working as a quick delivery person. However, this has been debunked. Hwang alleged that he paid off 500 million KRW in debt through 2 billion KRW earnings from wave power, but it was discovered that the apartment shown in the video was a stock image from seven years ago. Additionally, another interior designer, Jang Tae-young, also claimed to have made 1.5 billion KRW through wave power, yet this was determined to be a fabricated case as well. Both individuals promoted a site called Eco Wave, which received an influx of positive comments. Still, these comments appear to have been generated through suspicious means. Various allegations have surfaced during this process, confirming that all information related to wave power investments is false. Concerns are growing for those potentially scammed by these fraudulent investments, especially as criticisms rise against YouTube and government institutions for their ineffective response to such issues.
