Winners have one year from the start date to claim their prizes. First-prize winners must collect their winnings at NH Nonghyup Bank’s main branch, while second- and third-prize winners can claim theirs at any branch. Fourth- and fifth-prize winners can collect at Lotto retail outlets nationwide. Regional Nonghyup branches do not handle prize payments. Under the Lottery Fund Act, any unclaimed prize money reverts in full to the lottery fund and is used to finance public-interest projects.
