A story has emerged of a person who won first prize in an instant lottery after dreaming of a toilet overflowing with feces that splashed all over their body. The winner said the dream remained vividly in memory and felt like a good sign, and the next day scratched a ticket they had bought and confirmed a 500 million won prize.
According to an interview titled "Speeto 1000 106th first-prize winner" posted on the website by lottery operator Dong Hang Lottery on the 2nd, the winner, identified as A, won first prize with a Speeto 1000 bought at a lottery store on Geoje-daero in Geoje, South Gyeongsang. The prize money is 500 million won.
A said that after a Speeto 1000 received as a gift from an acquaintance won a small amount, they began buying a Speeto 1000 once or twice a month. Usually, they bought about 5,000 won worth by using the exchange of winning tickets.
In the winner interview, A said, "A few days ago while sleeping, I went to the bathroom in a dream, and a toilet overflowing with feces splashed all over my body," and added, "It remained so vivid in my memory that I somehow felt it might be a good dream." A continued, "The next morning I was about to buy a Lotto ticket when I suddenly remembered a Speeto I had bought earlier," and said, "I immediately scratched it to check if I won, and to my surprise, it was a first-prize win."
A also said, "I have lived believing that if I show generosity to others and practice small good deeds, good things will come back to me someday," and added, "I am truly grateful and happy that such great luck has come." On plans for the prize money, A said, "I plan to repay loans and use the rest for living expenses."
