According to Chinese media such as Beijing News, Haidilao announced that it would fully refund the cost of meals to 4,109 customers who visited the Shanghai Waitan store from the 24th of last month to the 8th of this month.
The compensation is estimated to be about 10 times the cost of each customer's meal, and the total compensation is estimated to be more than 10 million yuan (about 2 billion won).
Haidirao also said it had replaced all the hot pot and utensils in the store and thoroughly disinfected them. He then filed a damage suit against two teenage men who committed a `poisonous attack' on the pot.
Tang and Wu, 17, who came to Shanghai from other provinces earlier on the 24th of last month, finished eating in a room at the restaurant and went up to the table drunk to pee in hot pot. The video spread rapidly online and netizens were furious.
Two teenagers are said to have been temporarily detained by Shanghai public security authorities.
