‘Used 120 tonnes of water in 5 days’: Chinese couple take revenge on Airbnb host in South Korea who refused to cancel booking by leaving taps running, lights and gas on
“5天用了120吨水”:一对中国夫妇在韩国南部的一家Airbnb房东拒绝取消预订时,通过开着水龙头、灯和煤气来报复对方
The unidentified couple reportedly wasted 120 tonnes of water and left a water and electricity bill of US$116 and a gas bill of about US$730, NetEase News reported.
据网易新闻报道,这对夫妇浪费了120吨水,留下了116美元的水电费和约730美元的煤气费账单。
The couple booked the stand-alone villa in the capital city of Seoul for 25 days and paid in full without looking at the price or checking where the property was located in the city. When they later realised it was in the outer suburbs, they decided it was too inconvenient and asked to cancel the booking.
这对夫妇预订了位于首尔市的一栋独立别墅,共计25天,付清全款,却没有仔细查看房屋价格或地理位置。之后,他们才发现该别墅位于市郊,觉得太不方便,要求取消预订。
The host, also not identified in the report, declined to do so as the booking had already been confirmed and payment made, which the couple appeared to accept.
然而,房东拒绝了取消预订的请求,理由是预订已经确认并付款,而这对夫妇看起来接受了这个决定。
After they checked into the property, the couple, still angry at the host, decided to exact revenge by turning on all the taps, lights, electrical appliances and gas.
在入住别墅后,这对夫妇仍对房东怀恨在心,决定通过开启所有水龙头、灯光、电器和煤气来报复对方。
The couple then travelled to different regions of the country, returning to the villa every three to four days for no more than five minutes. They only went to the villa on five occasions during the 25-day booking.
这对夫妇随后前往韩国的不同地区,每三到四天返回别墅,逗留不超过五分钟。他们在25天的预订期间仅五次进入别墅。
