<li>Iljin HySolus and Hyundai Heavy Industries will release the ESOP volumes, 0.82% and 3.93% of SO, on September 1st and 17th. They have risen 2.3% and 145.8% from the listings.</li>
<li>Despite the small profit, it seems more probable that the Iljin HySolus ESOP will attempt to dispose of its shares immediately after the release, potentially leading to another price correction.</li>
<li>On the other hand, I would seek a hedge for the HHI ESOP lockup release. I would look at KSOE as a hedge for my short position on HHI.</li>

<li>The KDIC sold a 2.33% stake in Woori Financial through an after-hours block sale. From a passive flow perspective, this is quite similar to KSOE's HHI block deals yesterday.</li>
<li>Woori is likely to show a similar share price movement as HHI. Expectations for the passive inflow effect must have dissipated, and a short-term share price correction is now inevitable.</li>
<li>However, the passive inflow sizes are still too substantial. With this in mind, we need to consider a strategy that approaches this price correction as a re-entry opportunity.</li>
