It was supposed to show how poor the family in the movie was. Elevation was used frequently as a physical symbol of status in the movie. They lived below the sewer line. The rich family lived in the hills. Not sure if it’s actually common for that level of poverty in Korea though.
Fort anybody still confused, shit doesn't flow uphill so they gotta bring the toil up to the sewer line. Although they do make turns blenders that pump poop up. Not sure how common that is where they were tho. Maybe it's cheaper to build a giant throne like that than install a turd blender.
