Finally, here is an absurd story that makes you wonder if people still believe in such superstitions these days.
Recently, a post titled "A gas station owner says they cannot give change because a 'woman made the first sale'" was uploaded to an online community.
The author, identified as A, attempted to use the car wash after refueling at a self-service gas station in Siheung, Gyeonggi Province, on September 22.
When applying a discount coupon, the car wash fee was 4,000 won, so A handed over a 5,000-won bill but reportedly did not receive the 1,000 won in change.
When A asked why, the gas station owner allegedly replied, "It's the first sale by a woman."
A interpreted this as stemming from the superstition that a female first customer of the day brings bad luck.
A also filed a complaint with the headquarters' customer service center, but received a response to the effect that the gas station is operated by an independent business owner.
Subsequently, the gas station reportedly conveyed its stance that they would apologize and return the change if A visited the station.
