<li>The stocks worth our attention are mostly IPO institutional lockup releases. In particular, LG Energy, Iljin HySolus, and Hyundai Heavy Industries will be of the most interest.</li>
<li>Most of these have undergone significant price corrections. Nevertheless, current prices significantly outperform the offering prices. So, the incentives for IPO institutional investors to realize profits should be pretty intense.</li>
<li>Kakao Pay's volume isn't that much. Even with a heavier release last time, it didn't meet our expectations. Probably it is because it is bottoming out at the current level.</li>

<li>F&amp;F Holdings may fail to meet the minimum float rate. If it doesn't make KOSPI 200 this time, Hyundai Marine &amp; Fire Insurance will get to stay in the Index.</li>
