If it gets the double barber pole places away form hagwons on the same floor, more power to the law.
But remember, Korea passes a lot of crazy laws and has a lot of crazy laws on the books like "no driving through red lights". They make a big show of enforcing these laws the first bit and then nothing ever gets enforced. |

Yes, but what I can't figure out from the caption is that it is closed after midnight... no mention of what happens before? |

Siheung is a RLD in Seongnam where the majority of girls wear costumes. Sailor-moon-esque stuff.
Hooker Disneyland is well.. I forget the name in Korean but thats how its referred to. It sounds similar to Cheongnyangli in Korean but its not the same. Its close to Seoul, in that its a bit of a trek to get to. You have to go to some subway stop. Then take a bus. Then from the bus stop you need to take a taxi. Or just drive. But in other words its not convenient like all the others. But apparently its worth the trek all the way out there... hence the reference to a themepark. |

All the raids took place as soon as the law came into effect at midnight Thursday. Joonang Ilbo reported 59 male customers, a bunch of pimps and mamasans got nabbed en masse. No word on who these customers were. Maybe some of your co-workers were "sick" today? |

Wow... and I bet they were all foreigners, right?
After all, wasn't it the Korea Herald that quoted some gov't official stating that prostitution was a "foreigner problem?" |
