Taiwanese Guest Commits 'Urine Terror' at Korean Accommodation... Absurd Explanation: "It Was Starbucks Coffee"

Visit to Daegu Foreigners-Only Hostel
Owner: "The Smell Still Won't Go Away"

At a foreigner-only hostel in Daegu, an incident occurred where foreign tourists allegedly committed a 'urine terror' and left, but the guest in question claimed, "It was not urine but a beverage purchased from Starbucks."

On the 9th, Mr. A, who runs the YouTube channel ‘Bareun Foreign Life - Taiwan,’ posted a video titled ‘Defense and Claims of the Taiwanese Party Involved in the Urine Incident.’

Mr. A asked the guest involved in the terror incident, "What happened regarding the incident?" The guest responded, "I went to Starbucks and drank a certain beverage, but it happened to be a drink with a somewhat unpleasant smell," and added, "I spilled a lot of it while drinking it in the accommodation, so I think it might have been mistaken for urine."

The guest further said, "I'm not a crazy person, so how could I urinate like that in the room?" However, Mr. A commented, "Personally, it sounded a bit incoherent."

The guest also questioned the accusation that there was much evidence, such as photos of cleaning, proving the urine terror, by asking, "Does just those things (photos) prove that I urinated?"

The guest also mentioned a 'dispute with the hostel operator.' He claimed to have argued with the owner about check-in times, accommodation supplies, and usage methods. Furthermore, he made an unverified claim about the hostel owner, saying, "I've met many Chinese people, and just by looking at the appearance, (the hostel owner) is Chinese."

Earlier, according to a YTN report on the 2nd, two foreign men who stayed for three days at a foreigner-only hostel in Daegu reportedly sprayed urine throughout the room before checking out and leaving the country. The owner had to cancel all existing reservations because the smell of urine lingered in the accommodation for several days.

The owner inquired about the 'urine terror' incident through the overseas accommodation app used by the foreign guests, but the app reportedly only repeated that the owner should resolve the issue personally with the guests.

In an interview with the media, the owner said, "It's very shameful. I wonder what they thought of me to do this," and added, "As a human being, I felt extremely ashamed that they did such a thing in the room and left."

Regarding this, YouTube operator Mr. A added, "There was a dispute related to the use of the accommodation, and I think the guest's personal resentment or misconception toward China may have influenced this incident."

Meanwhile, it is reported that major Taiwanese media are currently not giving much attention to this incident.
