The end of a business owner who evacuated to a dining customer by saying, “My shoes are dirty.”

A man who was treated coldly by a restaurant owner because his shoes were dirty expressed his frustration.

Mr. A, who works in construction site delivery, posted a message titled ‘Restaurant owner who scolds me for having dirty shoes’ on an online community on the 12th.

Mr. A said, “This happened at a restaurant in Busan. I visited a restaurant I often go to near the construction site, and halfway through my meal, the owner scolded me, saying ‘next time, take off your shoes before entering. Your shoes are dirty and they make the floor dirty.'”

He continued, “I asked what he meant since it’s a place where we wear shoes. He said ‘other regular customers feel uncomfortable.’ Aren’t we regular customers too?” He expressed his disbelief.

Mr. A said, “He didn’t just tell me to clean my shoes next time after I finished eating,” and “I couldn’t eat anymore halfway through and left. It’s not like I had mud on them, and even if they were dirty, I don’t think it’s right to say that to a customer who is eating.”

Mr. A posted a picture of himself in casual attire wearing safety shoes and the half-eaten food. He also attached a video of him arguing with the owner.

In the video, Mr. A took off his shoes and asked, “So, can I come in like this?” The owner, who was mopping the entrance, avoided the conflict by saying, “That’s enough. If you don’t come, isn’t it okay? Don’t talk anymore.”

When Mr. A got angry and said, “Didn’t you say that a dirty person like me is not even a regular person?”, the owner said, “I’m sorry for telling you to take off your shoes. If you don’t come now, isn’t it okay? Stop it.”

When Mr. A expressed his frustration again, saying, “You did that while I was eating. I left more than half of my food,” the restaurant owner got annoyed and said, “Oh, you’re really arguing. Enough.
