Publish date: 2024-06-10

A woman who gifted 365 pairs of socks to her lazy boyfriend a year ago is now regretting the decision.

The woman, who is now married to the man, ended up washing all of the dirty socks that her husband wore and accumulated the entire year - taking her two whole days.  

Video of the painstaking laundry task shows hundreds of wet white socks hanging on a dozen washing lines on the balcony of the couple's flat in China. Another large pile is left in the washing machine.

Apparently, the woman's then-boyfriend was too lazy to do his laundry, so she came up with the special gift a year ago. 

'Last year, I gave my boyfriend 365 pairs of socks on his birthday. This year, my boyfriend is now my husband, and I've just spent two days washing the socks he wore all year,' the woman wrote on Chinese micro-blogging site Weibo. 

The 11-second video went viral on social media, gathering more than 13 million views after it was published on Sunday.
