0282 Toilet Theme Park

It’s been quite a while since we’ve done a real potty Postcard. Lack of material. But, all things come to those who wait as proven by this Postcard. Suwon, South Korea. The home of Samsung Electronics. And now the home of the world’s first toilet culture park centered around a toilet-shaped building that was once the home of Sim Jae-duck, founder of the World Toilet Association, a group dedicated to bringing hygienic bathrooms to all world citizens. Famously born in his poor grandmother’s outhouse, Mr. Sim went on to make a fortune in metal and then provided portapotties for the 2002 World Cup when it was held in Korea. His park features traditional Korean squat toilets, European bedpans, Marcel Duchamp’s porcelain urinal entitled “Fountain” and a copy of Rodin’s thinker thinking on, well, what do YOU think he’s thinking on? By the way, there’s no mention of what the Thinker is reading. #hacker #ceas #southkorea
