Obviously alot of things can be said about this, some very cheeky. But what interests me most is why they don't do the same to Korean pimps who open brothels in SE Asian nations? What is it about this that deserves so much attention? Is it more embarassing because they are gay or gay-for-pay Korean men?

Police have uncovered a prostitution ring that sent dozens of Korean gays and transgenders to engage in the male sex trade in Japan.

The Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency said Monday it had arrested a 41-year-old identified only as Park for arranging the illicit hookups, booking three others for similar offences.

Another 14 people are under investigation for having worked as homosexual prostitutes in red-light districts in Yokohama after being set up by Park.

Park ``recruited'' them through online gay communities, saying that they could make big money in a short time through prostitution in Japan. Most of them accepted Park's offer to amass money to have a sex change operation.

Park is suspected of having 30 Korean gays and transgenders work at brothels in Japan since January 2007 and taking a total of 500 million won ($330,000) from them in what was termed as a sort of brokerage commission ㅡ about 10 to 15 million won each.

The 30 men had sex with Japanese men for 15,000 yen to 20,000 yen (230,000 won to 310,000 won). Besides the brokerage, Park took 80,000 yen from each of them per month under the guise of ``fees for protection,'' and paid it to local yakuza.

According to police, Park himself is gay with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and had sex with some of the prostitutes for whom he arranged the sex trade.

Police are hunting other sex trade groups similar to the one used by Park. They are conducting a joint investigation with Japanese police and Interpol into the connection between such brokers and the yakuza.

Impossible.

There are no gays in Korea (except Andre Kim).

And there is no HIV in Korea.

These are foreigner problems.

Funny how when you tell Koreans that their ARE gays in Korea - Koreans usually reply "NO! They are NOT Korean - they are JAPANESE"

I wonder if the Japanese also say "No! They are not Japanese, they are KOREAN"

in this case - the gay hookers were KOREAN - and some of them HIV+ (spreading the disease to unsupecting Males - many of whom are probably married to an unsuspecting wife with kids)

If only they hadn't skipped their daily rations of KIMCHI - they wouldn't have been HIV+

There wouldn't be exportation of them if there wasn't a demand for them.
