"$$AN他 MoZIP"... 'Santa Recruitment Code' in Apartment Elevator, Back Again This Year [Warm Stories]

[Financial News] With Christmas just over a month away, an apartment complex's "Santa recruitment notice," written in a mix of Chinese characters, English, and special symbols to preserve children's innocence, is garnering attention.
According to JTBC and others on the 3rd, a photo of a notice at an apartment in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province was recently posted on social media.
The notice reads, "Dear residents, following last year, we would like to hold the Santa event again this year. The recruitment is open to any resident who wishes to present a special memory to children."
Unlike typical notices, the text was written in a mix of Chinese characters, English, and even special characters, phonetically altered so that only adults could guess the meaning, preventing children from understanding the Santa event preparation process.
The apartment management stated, "We ask for your understanding as this notice is written in code so that children reading it won't catch on. We look forward to the participation of many residents," and announced that the original text could be found in a separate notice.
Last year, ahead of Christmas, a Santa recruitment notice written in a code that children could not understand became a hot topic on social media.
Netizens who saw the story reacted with comments such as, "The effort to preserve childhood innocence is amazing," "It looks like it will be a joyful Christmas for the children," "It's a cute apartment," and "It seems like the adults are even more excited."
