Let It Out

A small, portable set of Kleenex is distributed for free in Japan. It's neither that Japan is a "communist" country nor that some goodwill NPOs are distributing those sets for many Japanese with pollen allergy, who desperately need Kleenex to blow their noses.

Once upon a time in Seoul, I was given one tissue set in a city bus. Without a word, a gentleman distributed a set to everybody in the bus. Without a doubt, I supposed it's free. Shortly, I jumped off at a next bus stop.

As walking and flipping the kleenex, I found the note on the back of the kleenex, stating "this Kleenex costs 100 Korean won. Thank you." Oops. I left the bus before he was collecting money, or tissues.


ちなみに韓国でティッシュ(トイレットペーパー)はトイレの水に流せません。
この話も水に流せないのかな…。
