Okrika seller shows off foreign currency
The seller, known on TikTok as @thriftgemshoppe, shared a video showing the note and asked her online community to help her convert the currency into Nigerian naira.
Eager to learn more about her discovery, she sought assistance from her followers who quickly reacted in the comments.
According to her, she always knew this year was going to be her year of success, and she asked how much for a GLE car.
As the responses poured in, it became clear that the amount was not as huge as many had anticipated.
It was gathered that 1000 Korean won, when converted to naira, was just slightly above N1000.
“See what I found inside my okrika dress. How much is GLE again? I know say this year na my year seeh. Help me convert it to naira,” the lady said.
