What if I have to...?
Unisex bathrooms are common throughout South Korea. This one was a little different in that it had one designated female stall, with a toilet, and one designated male stall, with only this urinal. So, what is a man supposed to do if he has to do something else?

How NOT to potty train...
This post technically violates our theme of bathrooms and bathroom signage, since this photo is of a book, nonetheless we are sharing it because it is somewhat related to one aspect of toilet usage, and that is potty training children. We really think that this image, if viewed by young children, would be counter-productive to that goal.

Poetry
Something so eloquent and so beautiful could only have been found in one place... a bathroom, of course!

Toilet Instructions
On the wall behind and above this public toilet were instructions on how to properly us it... just in case someone forgets.

Flush... with your foot.
Photographed at a nursing home in Damyang County (담양군), South Jeolla Province (전라남도), South Korea (대한민국), this bathroom enables occupants to flush the toilet by stepping on the button on the floor.

A room with a view...
Photographed at the train station in Wonju (원주시), Gangwon Province (강원도), South Korea (대한민국), this men's room has a view. In fact, it is not uncommon, in Korea, to be standing at a urinal with a view to the outside. This means, of course, that anyone you see can also see you. Also keep in mind that this is a medium-sized facility. In a small bathroom a urinal might be right next to the open door.

Seat Up or Seat Down?
At the CGV movie theater in Andong (안동시), North Gyeongsang Province (경상북도), South Korea (대한민국), a skirt isn't enough to differentiate the men's bathroom from the women's. If the toilet seat is up, that restroom must be for men. If the toilet seat is down, that restroom must be for women. Out of curiosity, what happen when a man really has to go? Can he put the toilet seat down or does he get to use the women's room?
