Baek Jong-won, CEO of The Born Korea, directly revealed his current situation and dismissed the rumors of his death. Earlier, a fake news was reported on a YouTube channel that CEO Baek passed away leaving a legacy of 10 billion won.
On the 24th, CEO Baek said, “There are many store owners who are very concerned about my current situation, but first of all, I am very healthy and well.”
CEO Baek said, “This is not Korea, but a foreign country. These days, there are a lot of people interested in Korean food abroad,” he said.
He later explained, “I’m done shooting stage one and I’m getting ready to go home.”
CEO Baek also said, “I will also try to make sure that the hard work of the store owners is not lacking. I will look after my health more diligently and work harder not to harm the brands run by the store owners.”
