Just what is the best thing about going to the bathroom in Korea?

For me, it's toss up between the ajumma cleaning and the dudes getting in real close to have a look.

By far my all-time biggest complaint is people peeing on the toilet seat. Sometimes you don't find out until you sit down. By far the worst.

Grew up with 5 brothers. Taking a quick scan of what's on the seat is a fine art that I have perfected.

You forgot the piles of hawk directly in front of the toilet. Don't know about the women's rooms.

But bathroom etiqutte is crap the world over. Guys doen't seem to be able to aim properly.

There are also guys who have ulcers and poo out blood several times a day.

I got in the habit of checking every time. Just luckily in Korea this problem is almost nonexistent.
