A man, known only as Park, was arrested in Seoul, South Korea this week for allegedly stealing 1,200 pair of shoes from funeral mourners.

According to police, Park disguised himself as a mourner and entered scores of funeral homes and picked through shoes other mourners had removed.

It is a Korean custom to remove shoes during a funeral.

Park would either take off his own shoes and put on a more expensive pair and walk away, or simply grab whatever he felt was valuable footwear.
