On the 18th (local time), a post titled ‘This is a photo of the Kobe University badminton club’s spring training camp’ was posted on Social Network Service (SNS) X and became a hot topic. Author A, who identified himself as a student at Kobe University, said, “The club members in question committed nuisance acts such as damaging the items in the lodging establishment or tearing down the sliding doors.” He added, “It is soon the club recruitment season, so I think it would be good for new students to know. “I write,” he said.

If you look at the photo released by Mr. A, you can see badminton club members smiling while putting their faces through a hole in the middle door of the lodging facility, which is blocked with weather stripping. They sprinkle kimchi soup on the walls, and even throw fellow students into the ceiling as if rinsing them, making a hole in them, and then take a photo in front of them as if they are proud.

Mr. A also claimed, “Students at Kobe University’s badminton club go to training camp twice a year,” and added, “They made a fuss at a drinking party at the previous training camp and tarnished the face of the school.”

Recognizing the controversy, Kobe University said, “We would like to offer our deepest apologies to those involved,” and added, “We plan to conduct an investigation based on statements from current students and review the actions against them.” It has been reported that accommodation facilities that have suffered damage are in the process of negotiating compensation with students.

Netizens who heard the story said, “It’s a shame for Kobe University,” “They say character isn’t sorted by grades,” “It’s funny that such unlearned behavior is a club tradition,” and “It’s scary that out of so many people, no one pointed out what was wrong.” , “There was a saying that when a group of people get together, they always end up acting strangely, and it’s true.”
