My hagwon does not provide a private bathroom for the teachers. Instead, all of the students and the teachers share one, which is the norm for all hagwons. Because of this, whenever I'm in the bathroom, I'll lock the door, preventing the curious Korean students from seeing how a foreigner does their deed in the bathroom. This might sound extreme, but after hearing some horror stories, I feel this is the best recourse.
HORROR STORY ONE:
One day Kiran had to take a shit. Upon going into the stall and doing his thing, a bunch of students came tumbling into the washroom. One of them yelled, "Oh! Teacher is making chocolate smell!"
Kiran froze. A bunch of students started clamouring because of the partition that separated Kiran from the rest of them. Of course, the kids wanted to get a look-see. One of his students started crying, "Sorry teacher! so sorry teacher!" as he hoisted one of his classmates up to try to get leverage on the top of the stall. Kiran sat there with his fist held high above him so it could come smashing down onto any fingers that poked into his side of the stall.
HORROR STORY TWO:
Jamil was taking a leak at one of the urinals when one of his students wandered in to do the same. Before Jamil could finish, the student, while at the adjacent urinal, peaked over and said, "ooh, it is big!"
So, yeah, I want to have a peace of mind when I'm letting things pass through the different orifices.

...so it's big, eh?
haha. Korean children are gross.
unrelated, but this made me think of your post on cigarettes and how many you smoke now. Remember, the economy is not what it used to be.
