It is understood that "unidentified excrement" has appeared in the public bathroom of the Men's Dormitory of National Taiwan University for many years. In September this year, at least three people secretly defecated in the shower room. Some students were stationed near the bathroom to catch the unethical "Shit King". The current criminal was caught at around 1 a.m. today. As soon as the news came out, hundreds of students came to the scene to take photos and records, and even sang songs of complaint.

After the relevant news was exposed, social platforms such as Facebook, PTT, Dcard, and Threads sparked heated discussions. Many alumni of National Taiwan University revealed that this kind of stinking incident was actually not the first. It has happened many times in male dormitories in the past 20 years since about 2003, but it has not become known to the whole Taiwan. The current criminals are also called "Poop King", "Shit Demon", "Shit Brother", "Shit Rick", "Shit King", etc.

In addition, similar incidents occurred not only in public bathrooms, but also in dormitory stairs, corridors, laundry rooms, dormitory doorways and other places where students found unidentified excrement. In 2003, male dormitory students and the Student Affairs Association collectively launched a war to suppress the "biggest feces king in history", and finally successfully captured the current criminal who had been defecating in the dormitory for nearly 9 months. In addition, it is said that after the current criminal was arrested, a large number of "poop kings" began to appear across Taiwan.

Other netizens commented on this, "Shit destroys the migratory barrier", "The real "Shit" ”, “History keeps repeating itself”, “It’s ridiculous enough to make a new version of the obscene dream drama”, “There really are shitheads in every era at National Taiwan University”, “Is National Taiwan University’s men’s dormitory a holy place for shitting?”, “No one has heard of having sores in ten years, but one shit became famous all over the world”, “Is there anything similar to Thousand Deng Tower in National Taiwan University? The setting of the Thousand-Faced Demon, every dynasty must have a poop king." "My class was even more amazing. The poop kings of the eighth male students would be in the washing machine, stirring your clothes with the poop." "It feels like a devil fruit has a sense of autonomy. Among the dormitory students of each class, the poop king is chosen one in a million."

Kazuo (pseudonym), an 80-year-old Japanese man, has stabilized his finances after retirement and moved into a senior residence with complete facilities. However, during his first long holiday, his neighbors went out to reunite and his children had their own arrangements. He did not talk to anyone for a day and cried while watching TV late at night. This highlights the challenge of maintaining social connections for seniors living alone even if they have a good material life.
