The first prize winner of Speedo 2000, 51st round, Mr. A recently purchased one set (2 tickets) of Speedo at a lottery store in Busanjin-gu, Busan. Both lottery tickets he bought won simultaneously, so Mr. A will receive a total of 2 billion KRW.

The official website of the lottery operator 'Donghaeng Lottery' posted a photo of Mr. A receiving the prize money. However, Mr. A's face was pixelated at that time. But Mr. A personally revealed the original photo on his personal Instagram.


Why did he share the news of winning the lottery on social media? Mr. A explained, "People say they have never seen anyone post (about winning the lottery) on SNS, but there are people in the world who have more money than me."


He also wrote, "Let's live diligently, thinking of it as money I don't have." Mr. A also certified a photo of his personal bank account where the prize money was deposited. The amount shown was 1.406 billion KRW, which is the total 2 billion KRW prize money minus taxes.
