"How Could It Happen in a Long Queue at the Restroom?" Confession

A man, presumed to be a Chinese tourist, was accused of defecating in a urinal in the men's restroom. The man reportedly fled after using the urinal in a crowded public restroom.


Recently, a story from Mr. A, who runs a restaurant with his parents in Jeolla Province, was posted on the domestic self-employed community 'Apeunikka Sajangida' (Because It Hurts, I'm the Boss). Mr. A shared a bizarre experience he had after serving a group of Chinese tourists.

He explained, "A group of 150 tourists arrived all at once during lunchtime. The restaurant quickly became full, and both the men's and women's restrooms were already packed." The building housing Mr. A's restaurant had a unisex restroom located between the first and second floors, and a long line had formed outside the restroom doors.


Mr. A recalled, "It was surprising to see the guests open the restroom door and use it as if nothing was unusual," but added, "After seeing the guests off and starting to clean the restroom, suddenly I heard Auntie screaming outside. Her sigh and expression said it all."


Someone among the guests had defecated in the men's urinal and fled. Mr. A said, "I saw a brown lump inside the urinal. A strange smell hit my nose, and I felt dizzy," and confessed, "I closed my eyes tightly and dealt with the problematic lump."


He expressed his bewilderment, saying, "I still wonder how that person managed to do that with the door open and a long line waiting. If they had sat there to relieve themselves with the door open, wouldn't they have made eye contact with the person standing in line opposite them?"



Mr. A added, "I have sometimes deliberately avoided situations where I had to use a Chinese public restroom while facing others, but this is different. It's absurd."
