Asian stock markets, including Korea, fell sharply today (the 5th).

KOSPI recorded the largest decline in stocks ever, and circuit breakers were activated on KOSPI and KOSDAQ, temporarily halting trading.

​My husband showed me a graph showing that his stock market risk prediction program, RiskWeather, warned me three times about the recent stock market crash. I don't invest in stocks and I don't enjoy it, but I like this program that warns me about the risks of stocks and investments. There are people around me who actually lost all their money because of stock investments. That's why I think programs like RiskWeather should be developed and promoted more.

​RiskWeather is a program that provides a simple, visual representation of the risks of the stock market, much like a weather forecast.

​Jinmoon Park, CEO, an expert in Korea's financial risk management and investment analysis, has decided to support Girin Instruments' booth costs for the outdoor art show to be held at Gallery North in 2024.

CEO Park is not only interested in finance, mathematics, and economics, but he is also an art enthusiast who is interested in art, including photography. Also, when you look at his photos, you realize that he too is at a level where he can be called an artist.

I will be participating in this year's outdoor show under the name of Girin Instruments, just like last year. I plan to set up a company booth, which is a more advanced form of the existing table, to further promote my work and company.

​Once again, we would like to express our deepest gratitude to CEO Jinmoon Park for his support and support for the development of art and culture in the local community.

I have currently published a total of 10 books on Amazon using KDP. This publication is a record of about a year, starting in the winter of 2022, when I studied storytelling in graduate school. Publishing 10 books in one year shows how passionate I am about children's education and books.
​

One of my books was written to teach children common sense about finance in an easy and fun way. To write this article, I received help from my husband, a professor who teaches business administration and finance and conducts related research at Stony Brook University. In fact, through many years of research, he developed a program to measure risk in the stock market. In order to make it visually easy for the public to understand and use, he developed and commercialized a risk weather program in the form of weather.

​Below is a site that informs you that the Risk Weather program is currently commercialized in Korea. I hope that one day some expert will discover the value of this amazing program and make it available in the United States.

I had to watch one of my closest friends and family members suffer through poor investment in stocks. And my husband and I constantly talked about and worried about these cases. If you view the stock market as a mere place for speculation, overlook its risks, or perceive it as a place where luck plays a role, you will see major failures in the stock market. My husband did research to reduce this risk. I also discovered that we need to study about these risks from a young age. I decided to create a book that would introduce and educate children about the risks in the stock market and the two sides of investing in a fun way.
​
​The character in the first book created with this intention was 'Sunny Savings', a pilot character and predecessor to the actual Risk Weather Program.
​

​Below is the newly designed commercial version.

I published this book at the end of December last year. And then I discovered that this book was starting to become known to people.

It is currently ranked 11th in the best-selling children's computer software section of the Amazon Store. ​I am grateful that this happened naturally without any marketing tools or help.

​And I found that it was being introduced as a choice award on a blockchain-based community site as shown below.

​It's a new experience to discover that a book I've created sparks this interest.

Riskweather is designed to reduce difficulty and intuitively understand the risk information of financial products by displaying them in weather symbols. Risk information is not positive or negative state, but a description of the phenomenon, and also a reference for decision making. Weather is also not an indicator of positive/negative or decision-making (Do/Don't), but it has a symbol that intuitively represents the phenomenon. So we considered wheater suitable for the concept of the service.

​

To welcome the new year, we would like to announce updates on the Girin Instruments website(www.girininst.com). Girin Instruments is a company founded in 2021 by combining art and business. Under the leadership of the company's president, Dr. Youngshin Kim, a professor at Stony Brook University, we developed a program that predicts the risk of stocks, a financial software application that applies mathematical models. This program is currently being commercialized in the form of RiskWeather. This company is also pleased to announce that it has updated its existing homepage by expanding it to be simpler as shown below.

​The newly transformed company logo is as follows. It was created by combining the shape symbolizing the existing G of Girin with the A of art.

​Also below is the company's motto:

Below is the homepage of GNE Holdings, a Risk Weather development partner.

​This site currently operates only in the Korean version. The English version will be upgraded in the future.
