Moreover, since the beginning of the year, there has been widespread news of continued price hikes in korea. In particular, the price of fried chickens, while apparently maintaining the original price, was actually adjusted by “disguised rise”. In the past, the purchase of chicken fried coke was no longer free, which undoubtedly placed an additional burden on consumers。
On 16 january, according to inside the chicken industry, in response to the recent economic pressure on some of the major chicken-fried chain owners due to the rise in minimum wage rates and the cost of delivery services, they decided to take autonomous measures to start charging the donated coke。

04 summary and reflection
The reality of the cost of living
In the republic of korea, the cost of living has become immeasurable due to the double impact of price increases and falling exchange rates. We may have mistakenly thought that studying or living in korea would be cheap, but today, it is feared that such a concept needs to be radically changed。
Sometimes, even people feel that even the soil can't afford it! I am often deeply alien to the surrounding environment due to economic constraints. Maybe 100 yuan in south korea, just for lunch。
