This post is going viral in Korea because it perfectly captures the relatable frustration of landlords dealing with irresponsible tenants who cause significant property damage and then refuse to take accountability. The tenant's audacious claims and the landlord's firm, logical responses have resonated with many who have experienced similar issues.

They totally trashed someone else's house!
They're not in their right mind, lmaooo.
There's more than one crazy person like this out there.
This is why I don't buy real estate. The era of making money from property is over unless it's a prime location. Stocks earn way more.
Compared to the increase in house prices, this kind of damage is peanuts. But that doesn't mean the landlord should let it slide.
Tenant risk is definitely a risk.
Yeah, it's stressful, but it's not like the risk of losing your principal investment like in stocks. Ultimately, due to the obligation to restore, the tenant has to pay all the costs.
The window frames are completely messed up, lmaooo.
It's true everything's messed up, but you really need to check how much the window frames cost. Many landlords overcharge for restoration costs.
Window frames have brands and specs. You need to replace it with the same specs. I'm telling you this because it seems like they have no understanding of window frames at all. And it's very, very easy to get an estimate. Don't underestimate it; no landlord wants to get caught for fraud over a few hundred thousand won by lying on an estimate. These days, LX, Younglim, Hanssem, 이건, KCC – you can get estimates with a click. You can either research it yourself and say 'I'll do it like this,' or let the owner handle it but get your own rough estimate. And you can ask the landlord for an estimate and proceed. But as you said, the right answer is not to do such crazy things in the first place. These people aren't human, they're just trash.
