A radio producer in Singapore confronted a stranger who attempted to enter her home while it was undergoing renovations. The intruder claimed he was a guest of a neighbor attending a housewarming party, sparking a wider discussion about privacy and boundaries.
Why it matters
The incident highlights growing concerns regarding home security and social etiquette in residential areas undergoing construction.
Another day, another stranger trying to enter someone's home to take a look while it's under renovation.
This time, it was Class 95 radio producer Lee Yoo Jin who was affected while she was alone at home.
In an Instagram post on Thursday (Sept 17), Lee can be seen trying to film a video when she hears the door open.
"I knew it wasn't my contractors 'cause the guy was struggling to open the door (it wasn't locked)," she wrote in the video.
As Lee opens the door, a man's voice can be heard repeatedly apologising: "Sorry, because I thought that..."
"Yeah, no, that's still not right," Lee told him.
Lee discovered that the intruder was a guest of her neighbour, who was having a housewarming party at the time.
As Lee confronted the man, he allegedly "made excuses that he was curious because there were many homes renovating."
