Deteriorating public sentiment toward Kiwoom Securities is showing no signs of letting up, even after its former Chairman Kim Ik-rae resigned for his alleged involvement in a nationwide stock manipulation scandal. Kim made the abrupt announcement Thursday afternoon and decided to donate all of his gains worth 60.5 billion won following his suspicious sell-off of 1.4 million Daou Data shares. Daou Data is an affiliate of Daou Kiwoom Group. The firm's stock price fell sharply shortly after Kim sold his shares.
