One netizen who came across the story said, "I also tried folding laundry as a side job," and added, "I earned enough folding laundry at hotels and hot springs to go on a 2-night, 3-day overseas trip," surprising many. They emphasized, "It looks easy but is surprisingly hard work." They continued, "While the washing machine does the washing, folding and ironing generally need to be done by a person, which is very tedious and tiring. If such a service exists, I would use it immediately," followed by comments like "This is exactly the service I need," and "I wish they would come to my neighborhood too."
