a heartwarming moment

So a Korean guy brought his laptop at the information center, saying that he dropped it and it doesn't work. He was showing the broken parts and I was googling some computer repairing store near the congress center for him. The store guy was being a jerk saying that they can only fix software (what's the point of "repairing store"??). I even checked the samsung website but we couldn't find any solutions. When the Korean guy was about to give up, an inspiration hit this long-term volunteer Adachi-san. He took the Korean guy somewhere and after 5-10 min came back with a big smile.

 "I think I fixed it".



He is the person who never show off what he does so he said like he did nothing special, but as you can see from the picture, he got lots of drinks from the Korean guy in return.

I like how the Korean guy showed his thankfulness.
