“YTA. Everyone calling these people creepy need to chill. *This is a thing* and they are not just trying to get you naked. At any Korean spa, for instance, it is common courtesy to rinse off before doing anything and you cannot under any circumstances enter any of the hot tubs or cold plunge/pools, saunas, etc wearing a swim suit or anything else. The staff will stop you. (This is the case at many other gender segregated spas as well, it’s not just a cultural norm for Koreans.) For reasons others have mentioned, it is less sanitary to wear clothing in hot tubs and pools unless you use a lot more chemicals which is considered by some people to be unpleasant and less healthy. It’s not your fault you’re not accustomed to it, and you’re not obligated to do it, but they’re not being crazy or unreasonable.” – Engaging discussion on hot tub etiquette!
