Mr. A, who has been purchasing both Lotto and Pension Lottery tickets for the past 3 to 4 years, bought the 180th round pension lottery ticket at a lottery sales store in Jung-dong, Bucheon-si, Gyeonggi-do. He explained, "Recently, my mother was battling cancer, and during her treatment, we visited my maternal grandparents' house. Near their house, I bought 10,000 won worth of Lotto and 10,000 won worth of Pension Lottery tickets."

He continued, "Later, my mother's condition worsened and she passed away. While organizing her belongings, I checked the pension lottery tickets I had bought earlier. When I confirmed that I had won both the 1st and 2nd prizes simultaneously, I was at a loss for words. It was very difficult after my mother passed away, but I feel like this good fortune came to me during such a hard time."

Mr. A said he plans to use the prize money to pay off the credit card bills incurred for his mother's treatment and the remaining loan balance on his house.

Finally, in the 'Winner's comment' section, he left the message, "Good things will come. Wait for happiness."

Mr. A, who won both the 1st and 2nd prizes in the pension lottery, will receive 11 million won monthly for the next 10 years, and 7 million won monthly for the following 10 years. The total lottery prize money to be paid over 20 years amounts to 2.16 billion won.
