A man in South Korea recently bought a used fridge online when he made an incredible discovery while deep cleaning it to store his kimchi: $130,000.

Mashable is reporting that the man found the stacks of cash, bundled in ₩50,000 (US$42.80) banknotes, sealed and taped under the fridge. The police officer handling the case said, "It was a large amount of money. It was absurd because we rarely had such cases."


Now the authorities are in the process of trying to contact the owner of the cash. If nobody can be located, the man will get to keep it all, minus 22% in taxes.
