Bidet-style Toilets Translation
Bidet-style toilets have become quite common in Korea in recent years. A decade ago most public facilities offered squat toilets with maybe one or two throne-style options. These days, there are more of the latter than the former in public facilities and homes mainly have throne style toilets. Increasingly, bidet toilets can be found in most recently built appartment buildings and wherever renovations have been done
In Korea, the bidet is not a separate unit. The function bar will be found either on the side of the toilet/bidet or attached to the wall. Most have symbols along with words to indicate the function. he wall mountings often have additional functions under a flip-cover. Following are some of the terms you are likely to find on your Korean bidet toilet:
