Agreed with most, this stinks of hypocracy. In a country where whoring and cheating seems to be the norm rather than the exception.

Either way, the lame ass Korean media will take this ball and run with it as far as they can, since they lack the ability to report anything worthwhile.

On Dokdo, I bet there is a whorehouse. But don’t go there unless you want a gum-job by a 45 year old fajumma.

For those, like me, looking for definitions of some of the terms used above, check this previous Marmot post:

I’m still unclear as to what a stand bar is. I asked a number of Korean students in L.A. to explain it and often got chuckles but never a good answer. Anybody want to help a brother out?

#26,

So? Does getting a lap-dance in the US have anything to do with Korean tabloid journalism?

Guys, guys…yeah, prostitution isn’t the greatest thing in the world…but it ain’t just a Korean phenonemon. Have you ever been to Miami or LA or East Saint Louis. Have you ever been to strip clubs in the U.S.? Have you ever been to Germany or the Netherlands or Eastern Europe. It sucks everywhere. Unfortunately it exists everywhere, even in the U.S.–maybe illegal but still exists and then you have strip clubs everywhere where women will rub your bodies and sometimes give you some hanky panky on the side.

@22 I live across the street from Hooters. Sad to say, the last reason that I’d recommend that anybody go there is to see the girls. A couple of them are ok, but the rest… I mean, one girl even has rotting teeth. WTF.

I suspect that the sex industry is to blame for this. Girls who are willing AND QUALIFIED to wear (somewhat) revealing clothes are can get paid a lot more and in a more private environment if they walk 5 minutes to the northeast. The rest can get jobs at Hooters.

And to be honest, the “Sexy Bar” is one of the most innocuous types of “sexual entertainment businesses” going. Girls wear skimpy clothing in the bar to provide an eye-pleasing environment for male patrons. That’s basically Hooters.

Oh noes! An attractive young woman worked at Hooters!

Yes, I distinctly remember reading that the figure also includes hostesses, waitresses in skimpy outfits and any other women that were connected to those kinds of businesses. They were using a very broad definition of a sex business and a sex worker. Regardless of whether they were prostituting themselves or not, that would still make for an awful lot of young women helping ‘entertaining’ men in one way or another–not that I am convinced that the figures were accurate.

Guys, guys!!!
Please take a long hard look at yourselves.
You appear to be trying to turn this into a discussion on statistics. The post was about a foreign woman, possibly an attractive one, working in a juicy bar…..please use more imagination.
