"This is the money that I couldn't pay for meals because I unintentionally moved. I'm sorry. I remember that there were two champon."


A warm story was told that the price of two bowls of Jjamppong came back belatedly.



According to a media report on the 2nd, Kim Se-hwan (76), who had been running a Chinese restaurant for nearly 50 years in Hupyeong-dong, Chuncheon-si, Gangwon-do, found a white envelope with the words written on it on the front door of her house about two weeks ago.



On the back of the envelope was written, 'I'm sorry that I delivered two bowls of champon at the restaurant and I couldn't provide the meal unintentionally because I moved'.



The name of the sender was not written on it, and there was a local gift certificate of 30,000 won in the envelope.



Kim, who ran a Chinese restaurant in Hupyeong-dong for 47 years from 1973, closed the restaurant in 2020 due to health reasons.



After receiving the envelope, Mr. Kim went to the store he had been operating several times and inquired, but unfortunately had to turn around as there was no way to find the anonymous sender.



In particular, Kim is looking for him more eagerly because he left the envelope even after he left the restaurant and moved to another building.

Kim said, "I was very grateful to receive a meal that I can't even remember who it was or when."



He said, "I have been doing business for a long time, and there have been many cases where I lost a lot of money and didn't even get a meal, but I'm happy to receive such a valuable gift," he said with a smile.



Netizens who heard the news commented, "Both of you seem to have a warm heart. Thank you for the warm story", "It makes me feel better to see articles like this rather than just eating and drinking articles every day", "It seems that you were very upset because you couldn't provide meals. A long time ago It would have been difficult to put it into action, but you did well."



Meanwhile, Mr. Kim plans to donate more money to the gift certificate in the envelope for a student who skips meals due to difficulties in living.
