Rumors are spreading rapidly that a large amount of gold bars were buried in the middle of downtown Iksan, Jeollabuk-do.
According to rumors, the buried gold bars are known to be 2 tons, which is more than 100 billion won in terms of price.
According to the Jeonbuk Iksan Police Station on the 8th, rumors have recently circulated in the local community that 2 tons of gold bars are buried in the basement of an old Japanese farm warehouse located in Juhyeon-dong, Iksan City, designated as a nationally registered cultural property.
Applying the domestic gold market price as of this day, the price of the rumored gold ingot amounted to 124 billion won.
The rumors of the burial of gold bars in Iksan’s city center have been raised in earnest as the police recently shared the content with the competent local governments, “There may be attempts to damage cultural properties due to rumors floating around the port, so management and supervision are necessary.”
However, the police said, “There is no officially confirmed fact.”
The Iksan Police Station said, “It was only shared with the local governments on the management of cultural properties, but the contents have been erroneously and it seems to have spread greatly. So far, no officially confirmed facts regarding this rumor have been confirmed.”
On the other hand, the Iksan Police Station said, “We plan to severely punish acts that attempt to damage cultural properties or threaten public welfare based on unfounded rumors.”
When this news was announced, netizens reacted to whether the drama’Vinsenzo’ appeared as a reality.
This is a comment on the 8th Community Theku.
Earlier in 2012, a North Korean defector asked for permission to excavate, saying, “There are a lot of gold bars buried in Donghwa Temple in Daegu.” However, at the time, the discovery of gold bars was unsuccessful and the incident ended.
