|
|
I'm reading through some porn stats, and I don't know if I trust the site, but it says that South Koreans account for 27% of porn revenue for the whole world, just behind China. And the crazy thing is that there is a per capita revenue of $526 USD which is more than 3 times the next highest per capita revenue (Japan (i assume you're all shocked)). $500 a year for porn? I find it hard to believe. ...and the ironic thing is that if you've ever seen South Korean porn, it's terrible, so I assume that 25 billion represents a massive outflow of money to foreign countries.

I don't find it hard to believe. Every neighbourhood has a brothel. Prostitutes are everywhere. Not much of a stretch here. |

For a country so supposedly tech savvy, i'm surprised so many people actually pay for porn.
Also funny that Korea is ahead of Japan who Koreans are so quick to look down on as a bunch of perverts. |

Yeah, that's the bit i don't believe. Consuming tons of porn? Sure. But paying for it while pirate DVDs are sold openly on the streets? I don't know if I can buy it (the idea, not the porn).

Korean Porn == Late night Cinemax in the US.
The US broadcasts the softcore on Cable TV whereas in Korea they gotta pay extra for it. |

Who pays for porn????
The Korean men I know who have a healthy appetite for porn simply download for free like most people I know.
I'm guessing that a lot of the money spent must be for live cam-girl action..... |

maybe the Koreans are just better at hiding their perversions... aka... "hypocritical bullsh**ing" |

You mean the stuff you get on channel 2 in the yeogwan isn't the best stuff ever? You know, the kind with the drool and the panty-sex and the no genitals and the sound as if it were recorded in a Dumpster? Huh, I thought that was the pinnacle of sexiness. |

Maybe the people who did the study consider it to be pornography if you f*ck a prostitute with your eyes open.
And when I say Korean porn is bad, I'm not talking about the softcore stuff, which is bad in any country (although Marilyn Chamber's Bikini Bistro was surprisingly touching). I'm talking about the hardcore stuff that I got off of clubbox. It's just terrible. Although it does have the upside of making you feel like you've got a relatively huge...uh...nevermind. |

W5,000 / hour at a porn PC-bang? That would only take 100 hours. Still, I can't believe that anyone would pay for 2 hours / week to watch what you could download for free. That figure has to be including things like rooms salons. |
