"I was calm about winning second place, but while checking the other tickets, I found out I had won both first and second place."

Interest is growing in the lottery numbers for the 1232nd draw of the Donghaeng Lottery, which will be available for checking after 8:35 PM today, July 11. Meanwhile, a story has emerged about a winner of the 278th Pension Lottery 720+, who won one first prize and four second prizes.

In a post on the Donghaeng Lottery winners' board last September, the winner of the 278th Pension Lottery 720+ shared, "I buy lottery tickets once or twice a month. One day, after finishing my walking exercise, I saw a lottery shop and bought five pension lottery tickets."

The winner continued, "A few days later, I suddenly remembered the pension lottery and scanned the QR code on my phone to check the results. I found out I had won second place. Rather than being surprised, I was calm, but while checking the other tickets, I discovered I had won both first and second places."

He added, "I couldn't believe it, so I woke my daughter, who was sleeping, to check again, and we celebrated together."

The winner, who purchased the tickets at a lottery shop in Namdong-gu, Incheon, shared his plans for the winnings, stating, "I plan to use the money to help buy a house and pay off loans."

Meanwhile, the lottery numbers for the 1232nd draw will be available for checking after 8:35 PM today.
