I came home today from work and it was taped to my door. Looks like a bill, but it has a red cross on it. Hospital visit I forgot to pay for? I think it might be asking for a donation but I am not sure.

I believe this is for a red cross donation. I get this every month (well my wife does). We don't give to the red cross here so we just ignore it. It is a way for them to make donations easier. Just pay it like a bill.

Gas Bill for 5,000 won? I already took care of the gas for this month. This is pretty sneaky of them to do something like that.

OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition. It means it can be read by machines, such as the bill payment machines at the bank.

The "bill" in question is for a donation. Feel free to ignore it.

It's the Korean Red Cross asking for donation.

You can ignore it if you want.
