About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Hanmi Bank and noticed something odd: every time he approached the front door, it emitted a soft, tinkling sound like tiny bells. Curious, he mentioned it to no one but himself until one day, while making another routine drop-off, he heard the same melody coming from inside. Finally deciding to investigate, he followed the music through the empty lobby, only to discover that it was coming from an old grandfather clock in the corner. The next day, when he arrived for his delivery, everyone in the neighborhood gathered around, laughing as he tried to explain why he’d been humming ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’ all week.

2. A delivery driver arrived early one morning with a truckload of coffee. As he unloaded boxes onto the bank’s loading dock, he spotted an unusual item—a tiny red kite, perfectly folded and placed on top of the crate. The delivery driver picked up the kite curiously, unfolding it carefully. It was indeed small and intricately made, with delicate red threads. Just as he was about to ask someone in the bank what to do with it, a neighbor popped his head out of his office window and shouted, ‘Hey, that’s mine! I must’ve left it here last week.’ The driver laughed, handed over the kite, and drove off, leaving behind a smile on everyone's face.

3. A delivery driver arrived late one night with a truck full of potted plants. As he approached Hanmi Bank, he noticed something peculiar: every plant seemed to be facing east. Curious, he parked his truck and walked towards them. Each pot had a tiny sign reading ‘East is Best’—clearly someone’s sense of humor was as offbeat as their gardening skills. Turns out, it was just a neighbor who thought it would be fun to confuse everyone.

4. One foggy morning, as employees were just arriving for work, a delivery driver pulled up to Hanmi Bank with an unusual load: a small herd of sheep. The delivery driver explained that it was a mistake—sheep instead of cash boxes. Everyone laughed, and soon the real money arrived. From then on, whenever someone asked about the strange sighting, neighbors would joke, ‘Oh, you must’ve missed the sheep delivery!’
