"Looking for the Owner"... A Shocking Discovery Inside a Discarded Rice Cooker

Pure gold has been discovered inside a discarded rice cooker.

The gold was worth over 20 million won.

Fortunately, thanks to the honest report of a security guard who found it, the items were safely returned to their owner.

Let's take a look at the story.

This incident took place in Geoje, Gyeongsangnam-do, last April.

A man visited a local police station carrying a rice cooker.

Inside the cooker, 25 don (approximately 93.75 grams) of gold, including gold bars and gold rings, were found.

The man, who works as an apartment security guard, discovered the gold while sorting through recyclables and reported it to the police, asking them to find the owner.

The police analyzed CCTV footage and identified the owner of the rice cooker.

The investigation revealed that the gold had been kept by a woman who recently passed away.

It appears that the bereaved family had discarded the rice cooker while cleaning out the mother's belongings without checking inside.

The family expressed their gratitude to the security guard and the police after recovering their mother's belongings, which they had nearly lost forever.
