| I've seen far better in racing girl pics. Don't know why some of those made it. Anyway, now that they have a title to brag about, they can demand more $$ if they have a room salon job. |

the first time I went to 용산 I saw all these people crowded around the car area taking pictures. I went over thinking it would be something good. The girl's face looked like some fat guy's ass had detached itself and was dry humping her skull.
People were on ladders trying to take pictures of her.. |

I don't know if they are attractive or not but they sure can't play billiards very well.  |

Ha. Good one. I remember watching it for a bit with my cousin. He kept saying comments like, "oh my God, she really sucks at billiards. Why is she on TV?" It was a bit irritating because he didn't seem to grasp the concept of the program. |

Yup. My Korean wife. She, her brother, and sister used to live together in the middle of that culture in Yeoksam, next to the hair shops where girls spend 75,000 won on hair and make-up every day before work.
It's common knowledge that many girls work as hookers in the room salon industry trying to do any or all of the following:
- Make big bucks while trying to break into show-biz
- Latch onto a rich guy
- Earn money to get themselves or their family out of debt
This isn't exactly new information. Women with a title to show off can demand more money for sexual favors, and are woo'd by the best salons serving the richest men. It's like a resume. |

재키림은 마약을 비롯한 좋지 않은 사건에 휘말리는데, 그녀가 이런 사건에 빠진 이유는 �한국에서 실력으로 활동하려 했지만 자신을 성적대상으로만 보면서 높은 사람 자리에 불려나가야 하고, 동료연예인들로부터 왕따당하면서 외로워서 약을 하게 되었다.�고 밝혔다. 재원이라고 떠들었던 뒷편에는 여성 연예인에 대한 여전한 성차별과 고위권의 압력, 동료 연예인의 텃세가 있었던 것이다.
Later, she became disgusted and further disheartened by trying to succeed as a singer in Korea through her own abilities but while facing the virtual prostitution of female entertainers that goes on behind the scenes. Not only was she regularly pressured to entertain and provide sexual services for politicians and business leaders, who saw her merely as yet another trophy girlfriend to be used, but on top of that she was also ostracized by other entertainers too, angered by whom they saw as an uppity overseas Korean whom they intended to put in her place. In the end she became very lonely and depressed and got involved with drugs. |

On the sexualization of actors and pop stars:
One time the band I was playing in back in 2002, the year I arrived here, or maybe 2003, and we had a gig at the OLD (yack! mold! but nice mood...) location of Club Bbang. I think it was summer 2003, actually. Anyway, before we played, I went outside into the street as usual with my horn to warm up.
(Saxophones need more warm-up, you know, checking the reed and getting the embouchre tight and so on.)
(Quit laughing about my nice tight embouchre, you dirty-minded slobs!)
Anyway, this guy was standing around, ordering people about as a film shoot for some crappy TV drama or other was being conducted -- apparently some famous show from 2002, but my Korean was so bad at that stage that I missed it, so I guess it was famous. Anyway, I walked off around a corner and walked off to warm up, and came back a while later.
When I returned, the rest of the band was outside having a smoke and beer, waiting for our gig to start. Three guys in the band were foreigners, but I was the only obvious (non-Asian) one. So when I got back, I joined the crowd to watch the film shoot, and the guy running the show noticed me standing there with my horn.
When the actress flubbed something, and they had to re-shoot, meaning the car pursuing her had to drive off. This guy who was running the show turned around and started chatting with me in English. "Pretty actress, isn't she?" A few minutes later, he was bragging about the sexual favors he'd gotten from the lead main actress in the show, and all the women in the show in fact, and how his wife had no idea. (Yeah, sure!)
My somewhat unimpressed reaction was, "Is that so?" He was so brazen about it, and he seemed just sleazy enough to have maybe done so, and quite proud to have gotten a job with such good perks. I was surprised, though, and took his bragging for bullshit. My bandmates suddenly started speaking English, and he joked with them about it, too. It was pretty stomach-turning, as well as surprising -- he seemed to take for granted that his whole crew had no idea what he was saying. Or didn't care, probably.
I asked around after that, and everyone (Korean) I knew said, "Yeah, that's showbiz here. Poor girls. But they get easy money, so... yeah, it's like a 다방 girl..." Maybe it's just such common knowledge (or so commonly assumed) nobody publicizes it? |

Never underestimate the power of denial.
If the women in this country were to stand up and demand that their husbands come home at 6pm like much of the rest of the civilized world instead of "drinking/working" with coworkers until all hours, then a lot of this shennanigans would come to a halt.
That or few Korean men would marry. |
