I’ve been in Korea for 51 weeks, and for 51 weeks I’ve maneuvered my way out of ever having to use a squat toilet…
…until now…
It’s not that I’m against the squat toilet. Like most things in Korea, it’s efficient and it makes sense. I’ve just had this perpetual fear that I would lose my balance and become the little boy in Slumdog Millionaire (except my venture would most likely not yield any cash prizes).
But, thanks to Dr. Schulze’s Intestinal Formula 1, my trip to the gym this week put me in a situation with no choices. So, I broke down and squatted.
…and believe it or not, I didn’t fall in.
My only complaint would be that the trash can was very full and very close to my face… many people in Korea do not flush their used toilet paper… but that’s with all toilets, not just the squatters.

Time for you to come back, Adam.
I’m all for “when in Rome…”, but this is too much.
You can use my bathroom ANY time!
