Money laundering (rửa tiền) is not a good idea, as a South Korean found out when he or she put banknotes in a washing machine to remove possible traces of the coronavirus.

Officials say the loss was considerable.

The person living in Ansan city, near Seoul, placed an unspecified amount of 50,000-won ($42) bills in a washing machine earlier this year. Some of the money was seriously damaged, and the person reached out to the Bank of Korea to find whether it could be exchanged for new bills.

Under bank rules on the exchange of damaged, mutilated (làm tổn thương, tổn hại hoặc méo mó ( ai/cái gì) bằng cach đập gãy, xé hoặc cắt bỏ một bộ phận cần thiết; cắt; xẻo; (nghĩa bóng) cắt xén) and contaminated (nhiễm khuẩn) banknotes, the person was provided with the new currency totaling about 23 million won ($19,320), the Bank of Korea said in a statement.
