Tiger JK's Lyrics To Song '5,000 Won' Released 10 Years Ago Foretells Current Cigarette Pricing

Tiger JK's song "Aspiring Singer 1.(5,000 Won)," which was released about ten years ago, is gaining attention due to the recent increase in tobacco prices. The song is from Drunken Tiger's fifth album, which was released in the year 2004.

"Aspiring Singer 1.(5,000 Won)" has been receiving buzz from several online communities due to the lyrics, because it mentions buying a pack of cigarettes for 4,500 won after receiving the wrong amount of change. 4,500 won is equivalent to a little over 4 dollars.

"I'm sure I had exactly 5,000 won in my wallet, but I went into a bread shop in an alley and bought a pack of cigarettes," he says. "The change that was given to me was only 500 won.  Although I am sure I gave him 5,000 won."

People are saying that Tiger JK predicted the future 10 years ahead, because the current prices of cigarette packs are now around 4,500 won.
