A story about a woman in her 20s, a YouTuber who without hesitation paid for soldiers' meals at a restaurant, is gaining attention.
'Eojjeol Su Eomneun Yunhwa,' a YouTuber with 140,000 subscribers, posted a video with this content on the 12th. Known for visiting restaurants rated around 1 star and leaving honest reviews, she visited a 1-star all-you-can-eat restaurant that day and tasted the food herself.
As she was about to leave after finishing her meal, the YouTuber noticed soldiers enjoying a birthday party at the next table. With a warm smile, she headed to the cashier. She asked the owner, "Have the soldiers paid yet?" The owner replied that they had not. Then the YouTuber said, "May I pay for them instead?" The owner responded, "You are truly an amazing person. Then I will not charge for the two soldiers' meals," and deducted their meal costs along with hers and her companions'.

The YouTuber said, "When I offered to pay for the soldiers' meals, the owner immediately said he would deduct my meal cost, which left a strong impression," and added, "It must not have been easy from the owner's perspective, so I was grateful." Afterwards, she left a 4-star rating for the restaurant, saying the warm kindness was touching.
Netizens who saw the video responded warmly with comments such as, "It's so cool how she paid without hesitation," "I subscribed right after seeing her pay for them," "It's not easy to actually do that. She's amazing," "I hope everyone respects soldiers like this," "After seeing so much mocking of soldiers on YouTube, this is heartwarming," and "Stay strong, all soldiers working hard in the cold weather."
Earlier last month, a story about a citizen who paid for soldiers' meals and disappeared also became a hot topic. At that time, a middle-aged career soldier, Mr. A, said, "Around 1 p.m. on October 15, after enjoying lunch at a Yukgaejang restaurant downtown, I was about to pay with one companion. But the restaurant staff said, 'A lady at the table behind you paid for the soldiers because she appreciates their hard work and left.'" He said, "I was dumbfounded. We were not even young soldiers but two middle-aged men in uniform," and added, "It was a day filled with feelings of gratitude, apology, and pride."
