The story was revealed that the washing machine's hot water hose was missing and the water bill was 6.5 million won.
An article titled 'Apartment with a water bill of 6.5 million won' was posted on an online community.
The writer wrote that "the hot water hose fell out during washing and the water continued to come out" and that a large amount of water bill was paid because he could not check it because he had been away for a long time.
The metered hot water alone amounted to a whopping 1,000 tons, resulting in a water bill bomb.
The author also attached a picture of the notice attached by the apartment management office.
The notice contains content that explains the writer's situation to the residents and recommends checking the washing machine hose to prevent similar situations.
Netizens who saw this responded such as 'a catastrophe', 'I don't think I want to believe the bill', and 'there was no damage downstairs because it was on the first floor'.
