A story has emerged about a lottery ticket purchased at the station where a commuter got off after dozing off on the subway on the way home, which won the first prize.

He, who often buys lottery tickets whenever he feels good before going to work, said, “I dozed off on the subway on the way home and got off at the next station,” adding, “Fortunately, there was a bus going home at that station, so I headed to the nearby bus stop. On the way, I remembered the lottery and visited a nearby sales store to buy Speedo1000.”


He continued, “The next day at dawn, after waking up and finishing my preparations for work, I started scratching the lottery ticket I bought yesterday,” and explained, “Unlike usual, I kept getting losing tickets, but near the end, I found the ticket that won 500 million won.”


Mr. A said, “I was so surprised that I just stared blankly at the ticket for 10 minutes. To check if it was a dream or reality, I even slapped my cheek and pinched myself,” adding, “I had been living a difficult life with increasing debts due to past wrong choices, and I thought of my spouse who endured hardships with me. I believe this great fortune came to me, who has lived kindly like a fool.”

When asked if he had any memorable dreams recently, Mr. A said, “Other than a dream a few years ago where I helped the president, I haven’t had any special dreams.”


Mr. A said he plans to use the prize money to repay debts and then give some to his spouse and children, adding, “I hope it can be of some help to my family who has worked hard all this time. I wish for all my family to live healthily.”


The instant print lottery Speedo is very easy and quick to check for winnings by scratching with coins, and you can also enjoy the game. Information such as the release rate of tickets, remaining quantities by prize rank, and first prize sales locations for lotteries sold on the Donghaeng Lottery mobile application can be checked.


Speedo is divided into Speedo500, Speedo1000, Speedo2000, etc., according to the sales amount.
