[Financial News] Campers who visited Suncheon Beach were caught using electricity from public restrooms without permission, and this has spread online.

According to Yonhap News TV, on the 11th, an online community posted an article titled "Unauthorized Use of Restroom Electricity and Littering in the Sea... Illegal Camping at Suncheon Waon Beach" along with two photos.

Mr. A, who posted the article, wrote, "Two men secretly used electricity from the women's restroom all night at Suncheon Waon Beach. Unauthorized use of electricity is considered theft."

The released photos show a long yellow cable connected to the women's public restroom, extending to a nearby camping trailer and vehicle.

Electricity is treated as property that can be managed. Therefore, unauthorized use of electricity in public facilities can be charged as theft under criminal law.

Mr. A added, "Not only this, but they also left food waste in the sea after grilling meat. Please don't do this."

Netizens who saw the post commented with criticisms such as "This is why campers get criticized", "Shouldn't unauthorized use of public electricity be reported?", and "As someone who camps, it's really embarrassing."
