Reward for convenience store staff following heartwarming story about earbuds.

Have you heard the heartwarming story about the convenience store earbuds?

The convenience store staff at Incheon International Airport who diligently searched for and found wireless earbuds dropped by a Japanese tourist have received an award.

Incheon International Airport Corporation announced that it presented a special merit award to convenience store employees Han Jeong-ho and Takeuchi Kira.

Last month, they helped a Japanese tourist who was about to depart the country find wireless earbuds that had fallen into a gap between display shelves.

At the time, the tourist said it would be fine to leave them if they were too difficult to retrieve, but the staff members felt around the dusty floor with their hands to find the earbuds.

The Japanese tourist posted a video of the scene on social media.

The video went viral, garnering high views along with reactions from people moved by the kindness of the Koreans.

In response, Han Jeong-ho said, "I only did what was natural, hoping that everyone who visits the airport takes home only good memories of Korea."
