| Abusive ajosshis are reprehensible but what are we to say about SE Asian women who want to marry complete strangers for money? |

Ummm, Asians have had arranged marriages since forever. Marriage everywhere was once seen as an economic arrangement between two families. It's still that way in much of the world. |

You failed to answer the question, genius. 
If you are willing to gamble with your life to such an extent that you are prepared to marry a complete stranger after a 5-minute introduction on the basis that they have more money than you....then you to some extent deserve what you get. |

I doubt you watched the video.
Some of the women are beaten, a few have died. On the other hand there is a man going around saying that the women are con-artists trying to gain Korean citizenship. This industry needs some serious pre-qualifying. |

I did watch the video. Did YOU watch the video? Did you see there were instances where these marriages are successful? |

Taiwan has had similar cases with many Taiwanese men importing brides from Vietnam. Unfortunately, some Taiwanese men (or their family members) have been known to abuse / murder these women. |
