Hanwha Investment overhauls YouTube channel with digital asset series, live broadcasts

By Jung Yoon-hee, The Herald Business

Hanwha Investment announced Wednesday that it has overhauled its official YouTube channel, expanding its lineup with new digital programs and live broadcasts.

The revamp focuses on delivering high-quality investment information to investors, broadening the channel's scope beyond its traditional stock-focused content to cover the digital asset space as well.

On top of existing programs — including a US stock investment series, a tax-saving guide and a pension lifestyle show — Hanwha Investment has launched two new offerings: "Digital Jeonjeng 3.0," a series dedicated to digital assets, and "Quick Market Returns," a revived live market update show.

Released every Wednesday evening, "Digital Jeonjeng 3.0" features Choi Yun-young, head of the firm's digital asset research team, who breaks down key issues and the latest news in the digital asset market in a clear and structured format.

"Quick Market Returns" is a revamped version of the daily live market show "Quick Market," which drew a large viewership until March last year. The program resumed Monday, delivering real-time domestic and international market closing updates and major investment issues every weekday at 4 p.m., with a live chat feature to boost interaction with viewers.

Hanwha Investment also plans to produce short-form videos of around one minute distilling key content from existing programs, and to link its YouTube content with Instagram and other social media platforms to strengthen the channel's competitiveness.

The firm has also recently added a "Digital Asset Home" section to its mobile trading system, providing digital asset news, market prices and research materials in partnership with digital asset data platform Xangle.

"We have expanded our YouTube investment content to serve as a guide for investors navigating the changing stock and digital asset markets," said Kim Do-hyung, head of Hanwha Investment's innovation support division. "We will continue to provide investment content that allows us to communicate actively with our customers."
