Yeah, mama-san is a pretty offensive term to use here, especially in upscale room salons and business clubs. Even though it's blatantly obvious what goes on there, they still like to uphold the image of a legit establishment.

The term mama-san is usually reserved for ex-industry workers that have worked their way up in the gang-infested RLDs. Not the most savory of characters.

you could do it for 400,00 won split between two guys easily enough. that's 2 bottles of absolut vodka+drinks and snacks for the girls. Of course the really nice ones, I have heard, are a few million won but the girls are uni students and get naked and stuff, and it sounds a little too sleezy for me. If you've got a million to burn, there are better ways to spend it like going to SE Asia or Japan.

Looks like you've found some fun in rural Korea after all- I guess you won't be posting any more complaints about not being "able to f_uck scenic beauty", eh? Cool

Mama-san probably wouldn't be offensive.
They'd just think you forgot what leg of your Asian tour you were on.

Nuna is good, but when you're truly suave and deb�o�nair, try 'onnee.'
Yeah, it's incorrect, but you'll see.
