Sim Jae-Duck was born in a restroom and now he plans to live and die in one -- a 1.6 million dollar toilet-shaped house designed to promote his tireless campaign for cleaner loos worldwide.

The 419-square-metre (4,508-sq-foot) concrete and glass structure is rising on the site of Sim's former home in his native city of Suweon, 40 kilometres (24 miles) south of Seoul.



Before he moves in, anyone who is flush with funds can rent it for 50,000 dollars a day -- with proceeds going to his campaign to provide poor countries with proper sanitary facilities.

Apart from two bedrooms, two guestrooms and other rooms, the two-storey house -- of course -- features three deluxe toilets. Unlike the giant "toilet" in which they are located, they will not be see-through affairs.

A showcase bathroom screened by a glass wall is located in its centre, while and will will feature a device producing a mist to make users feel secure. An electronic sensor will raise the lid automatically when people enter, and there will also be music for patrons.

The house, complete with a stream and small garden in front, is named Haewoojae, meaning "a place of sanctuary where one can solve one's worries".

Sim's birth in a restroom was in line with traditional beliefs. "It was intentional. My mother followed advice from my grandmother that people born in restrooms will enjoy long lives," said the 74-year-old.

Imagine walking into the restroom at a night club and seeing these people!
KInd of fun! Don't you think?

Who would do this?
And why?
Another pertinent question would be ... When?
In the middle of the night?
And then unscrew the light bulbs?
Ouch!

You're fucked now!

Here is a really good reason why you should never ever get so drunk at a party that you pass out in the bathroom! Especially if you have friends who take pictures and post them on the internet! So if this happens to you, you can't say that I didn't warn you. Because I did, just now!
