Woman Detained After Using Men's Restroom Faces Backlash: "Was It Really Worth Calling the Police?"

[Anchor] A woman reportedly had the police called on her after using a restroom at a highway rest stop. What actually happened?

[Reporter] Yes, a story recently circulated on social media about police being dispatched due to a restroom usage issue at a highway rest stop.

The poster, identified as A, experienced sudden stomach pain while traveling from Busan to Seoul. With the line for the women's restroom being too long, she inevitably used the men's restroom.

As she was coming out after apologizing to a male user, a man protested, asking why she was using the men's restroom, and eventually called 112 to summon the police.

Police attempted to wrap up the situation at the scene with a verbal warning, but the reporting man reportedly continued to protest until the end.

While acknowledging that using the men's restroom was wrong, A expressed frustration, stating, "I am not sure if it was something that warranted calling the police."

However, netizens criticized A's actions and attitude, leaving comments such as, "If a man had gone into the women's restroom the other way around, he would have naturally been investigated by the police," and "You should be grateful it ended with a verbal warning."
