No chart in the article, huh? Strange, that.

Kospi is up 72% year over year: https://www.google.com/finance/beta/quote/KOSPI:KRX?window=1...

It's up 30% year-to-date. It's even up 13% over the last six months.

The same is true for Samsung, except the numbers are even larger (in the green direction). Sure there must be people who screwed themselves in the short term, but this doesn't look like reasonably careful investors have anything to cry about as of right now.
