...Many species fly in to lights at night, and in the Ryukyu Islands, hundreds of them sometimes fly into rooms, causing trouble due to their smell and entering ear canals.

The red-ground stink bug Parastrachia japonensis is a large species, about 18 mm long, with black circular markings on a red background.
