It turned out that the person who showed his courtesy by taking off his muddy shoes at the door and shopping in socks at the market is 61-year-old Adnan Ersin, who works in farming. Ersin said, "Even if my shoes are muddy, I would still do the same thing. I take off my shoes and go inside."

61-year-old Adnan Ersin, who has 4 children and 1 grandchild, was farming in the Çerçili neighborhood of the district when he noticed the mud on his shoes at the market he visited in Aydınlar neighborhood and first scraped it off on the side. Seeing that the mud wouldn't come off, Ersin then took off his shoes in front of the market and entered inside in his socks.

SHOPPING WITHOUT SHOES IN THE MARKET

The cashier was surprised to see Ersin shopping without shoes. Those moments were captured from start to finish by the market's security camera, and the footage warmed the hearts of those who saw it.

"I TOOK THEM OFF SO I WOULDN'T DISTURB THE EMPLOYEES"

Adnan Ersin explained that he went to the field to remove thorns, saying, "My shoes got muddy because it rained beforehand. I was in a hurry to go to the market, and I thought I wouldn't disturb the employees inside, so I took off my shoes and did my shopping. It was cold, and I thought this way I wouldn't bother the employees."

"I WOULD DO IT AGAIN"

Ersin also emphasized that he was surprised to see himself when he turned on the evening news, stating, "If I were working in the field and my shoes were muddy, I would do the same thing again. I would take off my shoes and go inside." Aydınlar Neighborhood Muhtar Hasan Yıldırım noted that Adnan Ersin's behavior is unique to all the Yörüks of the Toros Mountains, and he expressed his appreciation by saying, "I was moved; this is who we are," as he mentioned that he also watched the footage on television.
