According to one study of Russian and Filipina entertainment workers, only .5% worked in room salons. 94% worked in Nightclubs (Mostly Russians) and Gijichon establishments (G.I bars/juicy bars, and mostly Filipinas). <br /><br />If you can find it try to read:<br />Foreign women’s life and<br />work in the entertainment<br />sector of Korea from the<br />human trafficking perspective<br />by Dong-Hoon Seol and Geon-Soo Han<br /><br />It is, I think, 40 pages? It talks about the Russian and Filipina experiences as prostitutes in Korea starting from how they got into the business, and detailing what services they actually provide, which types of customers they see, what types of abuses they suffer, and all kinds of other stuff. It was really interesting and eye opening. <br /><br />Here is a link to the google book version: http://books.google.com/books?id=5LBw2eft0CwC&lpg=PA152&ots=xIXRSwLeWM&dq=Foreign%20women%E2%80%99s%20life%20and%20work%20in%20the%20entertainment%20sector%20of%20Korea%20from%20thehuman%20trafficking%20perspective&pg=PA152#v=onepage&q=Foreign%20women%E2%80%99s%20life%20and%20work%20in%20the%20entertainment%20sector%20of%20Korea%20from%20thehuman%20trafficking%20perspective&f=falseS.Bruciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04309684853993712990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36405856.post-63850248945079501282008-10-08T19:42:00.000-04:002008-10-08T19:42:00.000-04:00I wonder if the article distinguished between 'hap...I wonder if the article distinguished between 'happy ending' massages and full-on intercourse. I suppose the prices differ quite a bit. I wonder even more about the prostitutes themselves, if they are imported Southeast Asians or if they are Korean. I've wondered a lot about this since reading the book 'Sex Slaves' about the sex industry in Southeast and East Asia.adabeiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528653783425665623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36405856.post-62653724936313098342008-10-06T22:27:00.000-04:002008-10-06T22:27:00.000-04:00How do they afford prostitutes on such low salarie...How do they afford prostitutes on such low salaries.
