Gold-Obsessed Man Wears 13Kg of It Wherever He Goes
A Vietnamese businessman has been attracting a lot of attention on Asian social media sites for his obsession with gold. 36-year-old Tran Ngoc Phuc wears a total of 13kg of gold wherever he goes, and is always accompanied by at least 5 bodyguards who make sure that no one tries to steal it.
Phuc first started making headlines in Vietnam last week after a series of YouTube videos of him showing off his massive jewellery went viral, getting several millions of views. Since then, photos and videos of him wearing his huge gold necklace, bracelets and rings have been doing the rounds on Vietnamese social media, and even on several websites in China and Thailand. While some people expressed their doubts that the jewels are real gold, most commenters wondered how he can stand walking around with so much extra weight. The businessman admitted that wearing the jewellery took some getting used to , but claimed that it was worth it as all the gold has boosted his good luck and prosperity.
ベトナムの36歳の男性Tran Ngoc Phucさんはどこに行くにも１３キロにも及ぶ金のアクセサリーを身にまとって出かけており、襲撃を免れるために最低でも5人のボディーガードもつけている。これらを自慢する動画をYoutubeで公開して注目を浴びているとのこと。
The young businessman revealed that he started ordering his giant gold jewellery 5 years ago, after a feng shui consultant told him that it would increase his good luck. He first commissioned the large gold chain and medallion featuring a winged horse, but then decided that more gold meant more good luck, so he had the other pieces done as well. And he’s not stopping here. Phuc recently revealed that he plans on ordering a custom gold hat and shirt as well to go with all his current accessories.
なぜこんなことを始めたかというと、幸運を招くと言われたからだそうで、いまではさらにこの金のアクセサリーに合う金の帽子とシャツをカスタムメイドすることを検討しているとのこと。
