Korea's Sex Trade: A Short History

Borderless takes you deep into Seoul's major red light districts to show you the history of Korea's massive sex trade. This is part 2. Part one is here: • Korea: A Global Sex Ca...
In this latest in the series, Borderless News Online goes to some of Seoul’s best known red light districts to uncover the history of Korea’s sex industry - which goes back at least to the time of Japanese occupation. Borderless talks to sex workers, pimps mamasans - older female brothel managers - and others in this underworld that is on the one hand secret but on the other hand widespread in Korea.
Korea’s massive sex industry - one of Asia’s biggest - has been around for at least over a century, and some in the industry say it’s growing.
In the book Yoo Gwan Eh (유곽의 역사) by Korean historian Hong Seung Jeol (홍성철) , the author says Japan introduced the sex trade to Korea when the island nation colonized Korea in the early 1900’s. It’s typical of some Korean historians to blame what they perceive as societies vices on the Japan occupation, and there was likely some form of the worlds oldest profession being practiced at some point in Korea before the Japanese arrived.
While the sex trade started in the early 1900s, it began to surge right after the Korean War, as over 300,000 U.S. troops were stationed there after the truce was signed with North Korea in 1953. Historian Yoo Gwan Eh wrote that scores of women roamed around U.S. military bases in search of food, and many women had nothing to sell except for themselves , just to feed themselves and their families.

Really? They're on display? I've never ever thought that a very conservative country and sex is even unheard of on national tv, would have something like this.

[@andrycanz8693]

i've been there a couple of times and solicited the services of these girls. i treated them with dignity and respect and even added them on ig and fb. they are honest, beautiful people and whoever thinks they are lesser women can simply go to hell.

[@glukhar_agapov9990]

You say that, but I guarantee that a majority of those women were tricked/groomed into doing that, and in turn are being sold sex slaves. And the way they get them to stay is manipulation and drugs, so a lot of these women develop a dependency on their pimps (they are addicted to the drugs.) and also develop Stockholm Syndrome.

[@MrYega-zq7rz]

What area so I'm interested in being a customer when I visit.
