Glad to hear the human trafficking ones are mostly shut down, and hopefully any that are left will be shut down too.

Back in 2005, there were a lot of them in Pyeongtaek, and though the military warned us about them, they weren’t doing anything to shut them down. Only way the girls could get out where to find someone willing to buy their passport back from the bar owner. Actually had a coworker do that with a Russian juicie.

Agreed. If it's genuine change, it's going to be a slow process. A LOT of the trafficking and exploitation is gone but it still exists and is sufficiently hidden and/or ignored. Both Pyeongtaek and Osan have REALLY cleaned up though, which is heartening. Now it's a lot of actual Korean gals working the hostess life
