In a viral 21-second TikTok video shared by @irfannudin350, the man proudly displayed an angpao he had received. But what started as a moment of joy quickly turned to disbelief. While tearing into the red packet, he accidentally damaged two pristine RM50 notes, leaving the edges torn and the money rendered unusable.
The video captured his reaction perfectly, initial shock followed by uncontrollable laughter in the background as he realized the blunder. Despite the mishap, the lighthearted clip has brought laughter to over 400k viewers, with comments pouring in to share their amusement and advice.
Netizens joked that the man must have been a little too eager to claim his angpao, leading to the unfortunate incident. Others offered practical solutions, suggesting he visit a nearby bank to exchange the damaged notes for new ones.
