Shares of the Celltrion Group are showing weakness on the 3rd due to the issue of Chairman Seo Jung-jin's extramarital children.


As of 9:46 a.m. on the day, Celltrion is trading at 157,500 KRW, down 1.81% compared to the previous trading day on the KOSPI market.


On the KOSDAQ market, Celltrion Healthcare and Celltrion Pharm, both ranked within the top 10 by market capitalization, are trading down 2.95% and 2.47%, respectively.


It was revealed through a broadcast report the previous day that Chairman Seo has two extramarital children.


The biological mother of the extramarital children, Ms. A, stated in an interview that she has had conflicts with Chairman Seo and emphasized that her two daughters hold a status that allows them to share the inheritance.



As a result, some Celltrion shareholders have expressed concerns that this issue could affect the group's governance structure.
