A said, "I know it’s difficult to win first prize, but I buy lottery tickets with a small amount once a week just in case," she began.
One day, A stopped by a dry cleaner to have her husband’s clothes altered and then went to the lottery store across the street. At that time, she had 5,000 won in cash and bought one set of Speedo2000 for 4,000 won.
After returning home, A checked the winning status and was surprised. She was initially happy thinking she had won 10 million won, but upon rechecking, she found out she had won the first prize of 1 billion won.
In her astonishment, she immediately scratched the remaining ticket and explained that she won first prize consecutively. Ultimately, A won a total prize of 2 billion won.
Regarding her feelings about winning, A said, "I felt very happy and celebrated with my family," adding, "The first thing I want to do with the prize money is to travel with my family." She continued, "The rest will be used to repay loans, buy a car, and some will be shared with the children."
