'World's first toilet theme park' opens in South Korea (no, not gop theme, actual toilets)

The Korean city of Suwon has opened what it says is "the world's first toilet theme park".

The Restroom Cultural Park has a museum displaying Roman style loos, European-style bedpans, and ancient Korean flush toilets, as well as fun facts about human waste and a sculpture garden dedicated to squatting figures.

The BBC's Seoul correspondent Lucy Williamson visited the park to explore South Korea's fascination with the art and routine of the water closet.
