Was there a controversy over a sign restricting women from entering the men's restroom at a highway rest area during the Chuseok holiday?

A photo of a notice posted on the entrance of a men's restroom at a rest area was uploaded to an online community.

The notice read, "A flood of complaints is coming in," and stated, "Please use the men's restroom only if you are male."

It appears that as the waiting lines for women's restrooms grew longer during the holiday period, some visitors used the men's restroom, leading to a series of related complaints.

Reactions from netizens seeing this were divided.

While some opinions emerged such as, "Urinals are exposed in the men's restroom, so it is unpleasant," and "If the situation were reversed, it would have immediately become an issue," other responses followed, saying, "Waiting times for women's restrooms are relatively long," and "It is somewhat understandable in an urgent situation."
