슬리퍼 끌고 가던 동네 목욕탕이 싹 다 사라진 이유

When was the last time you visited a neighborhood bathhouse? The simple happiness of slipping out on a weekend morning, soaking in a hot tub, and drinking banana-flavored milk. However, the neighborhood bathhouses and jjimjilbangs we knew are silently disappearing from our side. Ironically, while foreign tourists who watched K-dramas are making pilgrimages to jjimjilbangs, the footsteps of Koreans—the very people who originated them—have completely dried up. It is a shocking situation where 30% of bathhouses nationwide have vanished over the past decade. Is it because of the skyrocketing gas bills? Or has the way people wash themselves completely changed since COVID-19? We will thoroughly investigate the real reasons why neighborhood bathhouses are on the verge of extinction, as well as the identity of 'that place' where Koreans who left the jjimjilbangs have newly taken refuge. When was the last time you went to a neighborhood bathhouse? As you watch the video, please feel free to leave a comment sharing your memories of neighborhood bathhouses, or the reasons why you haven't been going to bathhouses lately! #NeighborhoodBathhouse #Jjimjilbang #DespairOfSmallBusinesses #BathhouseClosure #KSauna
