  • ... that there is a folk tradition in Korea, where children who urinate while sleeping are made to wear a winnowing basket on their head and ask their neighbors for salt? Source: [1] This Korean lang paper has a translated English abstract available. "ki" is a winnowing basket, as per the article.

    • Comment: In the meantime I may flesh out the details about the tradition, especially if the DYK is accepted. Also there's a potentially relevant image in the article; I'm not sure if an image can be retroactively added to this nom, but I also didn't feel it was crucial, as "urinate" is eyecatching enough as is I think.
