General

Hongsil's Treasure Draw Please check the website for details about this new mini-game. Hongsil's Treasure Draw will be available for 30 minutes at the start of every hour. The opening, time, and duration may be adjusted during the event period. When Hongsil's Treasure Draw is open, click the icon at the bottom of the screen to participate. Participation in the Treasure Draw requires a Hongsil’s Treasure Key. You can participate a maximum number of 10 times per round. Hongsil’s Treasure Keys can be bought in the Hongmoon Store for 69 NCoin or 69 Hongmoon Coin each (limited to 20 keys per day per account when purchasing with Hongmoon Coin). Hongsil’s Treasure Keys will also be available as a Daily Login Reward for a limited time. When using a key, a random number will be automatically assigned to you. A round will end every two minutes, or when 100 keys have been used across the entire server. There is a countdown timer on the UI to show you how long before the round ends. When a round ends, the system will randomly pick the winning numbers, highlight Fortune’s Lane (one full row or column of the board, highlighted with a purple line), and select one lucky number known as Hongsil’s Choice. The prizes will be calculated at that time and sent to your mailbox. The prize list is as follows:
