Yes, that satisfying pop. Who knew the secret to €2,675 was lurking in everyone’s pocket?

After months of nail-biting suspense, wild guesses, and plenty of “I swear I’ve heard this before” moments, Kfm’s Mystery Sound has finally been won.

The sound? A phone case being clipped on to a phone.

Yes, that satisfying pop. Who knew the secret to €2,675 was lurking in everyone’s pocket?

The lucky listener to solve the mystery was Aine Ward from Blackwood, Coill Dubh.

Aine managed to zero in on the seemingly mundane sound and snag the coveted cash prize, earning her instant bragging rights - and possibly a new phone case!

For months, Kfm listeners had been guessing everything from zipping a bag to opening a jar, but Aine’s keen ear sealed the deal.

As Kfm celebrates another Mystery Sound success, Aine plans to celebrate her windfall, though she’s keeping quiet on whether a brand-new phone is on the cards.
