Cute, blond and chatty, she flirted with boys and tried on the latest Gap fashions. One day last summer, Stacey, which isn't her real name, says she was approached by a man who told her how pretty she was, and asked if he could buy her some clothes. "He was an older guy, dressed really well," she recalls. "He said he just

The Daily Planet, as the Melbourne-based bordello is known, announced its intention to float last summer after an abortive attempt nine years ago. the company's shares have made their debut, more than doubling in price from an opening level of 50 cents to a close of A$1.09. "Obviously the price is going to go up," said Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss, hired by the brothel to boost its publicity. "It's sex, and everyone knows sex is a smart investment.
ドキョソ肉便器男捜しの遊学記、語学遊学女にこのタイプが多い。 Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan http://www.fccj.or.jp/modules/wfsection/article.php?articleid=50&category=13 Since graduating from high school in March, Marie Usui has been working as a hostess to save up for a trip to Australia, where she plans to study English for six months. She lives with her father (a robot maker), her mother (a nursery nurse), sister and grandparents in Saitama, near Tokyo. We chatted for a couple of hours in a coffee shop in Shibuya. I've been saving up by working as a hostess. It is good money, about 800 pounds per month - but we work hard until 2am almost every night. ★I used to be upset if one of them touched my bum, but now I put up with it. ★We are taught to tell white lies to customers, such as flattering them or telling them that we don't have boyfriends. ★Half the girls in my old high school class are now hostessing and the ones who earn the most in the big Tokyo clubs are really spoiled They look down on us now. I don't want to become like that, but I want to be rich. It is a difficult balance. My generation doesn't believe in anything except money. I'm really looking forward to living overseas. I prefer Western music such as Britney Spears and U2 to Japanese pop music. ★And I like western men more than Japanese men because the latter are so indecisive. I guess I will have to be more independent in Australia. Everyone in my nightclub, including the mama-san (boss), is supporting me. And my mum has paid most of the 1.5m yen (9,000 pounds) fee. I'm only going for six months, but they all seem to think that when I return, I'll be grown up and a fluent English speaker!!!!
In the last two decades, it has become fairly common for Japanese women to study and even work overseas. Still, a Japanese woman's decision to live abroad sets her outside a mainstream culture that guarantees her security as a homemaker, ★but is not concerned with her professional fulfillment. ★"It's very striking that a lot of Japanese women don't have a long-term plan when they go abroad," said Karen Kelsky, a professor of anthropology at the University of Oregon and the author of "Women on the Verge: Japanese Women, Western Dreams" (Duke, 2001). ★"They have vague notions that they want a career, but they have no societal support for their career goals. It's a poignant situation." ★Most New York hostesses fell into the job when they encountered the city's high cost of living. ★Ms. Karasawa is unusual among New York's Japanese hostesses because she doesn't hide her job from her friends and family. She said she was not ashamed to be a hostess. She decided she needed the flexibility of the clubs, because she can take the night off when she has an English-language class or another conflict. She said her parents know about her job, and offer moral support. The small number of hostesses who sleep with their customers do so outside the clubs' auspices. http://www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/english-books/0822328054/reviews/ref=cm_rev_more/249-9186307-2664357#3

Korean woman pleads guilty in prostitution ring A federal judge accepted the guilty plea Friday of a Korean national who is accused of managing a brothel hidden in a Lisbon Falls massage parlor. Doo Ri Kim, 39, was arrested in June by police and federal immigration agents investigating complaints of a prostitution ring that employed illegal immigrants. Kim and three other women were found at the Asia Acupressure Therapy Center. According to court records, Kim entered the country illegally in 1998, and lived in Flushing, N.Y. She moved to Lisbon Falls in January 2004. http://news.mainetoday.com/apwire/D85K1CPO1-282.shtml http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/news/state/041009kim.shtml
Authorities close in on human-smuggling operation Wednesday, October 06, 2004 http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002055254_smuggling06m.html Federal authorities are closing in on a human-smuggling operation involving South Korean immigrants preying on and profiting from other South Koreans. The smugglers ferry their human cargo from Canada through Washington state to Los Angeles and elsewhere, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Seattle. Recruiters court victims through newspaper ads in South Korea and in the U.S., generally charging from $6,000 to $12,000, promising them better lives Brokers in South Korea, Mexico and Canada then arrange international flights to bring the people over from South Korea, the prosecutors said. Drivers pick up "loads" at the borders and bring them into the country. Other brokers arrange temporary housing, or locate jobs: Men often drive taxis; women work as hostesses in "room salons," that is, bars catering to South Korean businessmen. Being a hostess sometimes means providing sex, according to prosecutors. And since these are money-making operations, loan-shark systems are set up for those who need to pay off their smuggling debts, known as "il sunoh ri" in Korean, the attorneys said. In North Central Washington, human smuggling most often has involved South Koreans. "I've noticed a lot lately," said Frank Rogers, sheriff for sparsely populated Okanogan County. Just last month, nine South Koreans, ages 18 to 52, were detained by Border Patrol agents in Oroville. "It was a terrible year," he said. "They were women, for the most part, destined for the sex trade in Southern California, responding to ads saying they'd get them in the country and get them a job for $10,000."

SOME OF THEM WIND UP IN MASSAGE PARLORS IT IS THE KOREAN NETWORKS THAT ARE HEAVILY INVOLVED WITH MASSAGE PARLORS. ELLERMAN SAYS THE YOUNG KOREAN WOMEN BROUGHT OVER TO WORK IN THEM ARE OFTEN LURED WITH PHONY PROMISES. ELLERMAN: "WHEN THEY GET THERE THEY FIND OUT...ONE THEY HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR TICKET... IT COMES OUT OF THEIR WAGES. TWO THEY HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR ROOM AND BOARD AND THEY ARE GOING TO BE LIVING IN THE BROTHEL... SLEEPING ON THE SAME BEDS WHERE THEY HAVE TO SERVICE THE CUSTOMERS ON." AND, ELLERMAN SAYS, THE ONLY MONEY THE WOMEN GET TO KEEP ARE THEIR TIPS AND THE TIPS COME FROM PERFORMING SEXUAL SERVICES. THE POLARIS PROJECT HAS AN OUTREACH PROGRAM TO HELP THEM IN WHICH VOLUNTEERS GO INTO THE MASSAGE PARLORS INITIALLY POSING AS CUSTOMERS. ELLERMAN WENT INTO THREE OF THEM WITH A HIDDEN CAMERA. WHEN THE YOUNG WOMEN WERE BROUGHT TO HIM, ELLERMAN ENDED HIS RUSE.

Saturday, January 8, 2005 Korean national gets jail in brothel case A Korean national was sentenced to eight months in jail Friday for managing a brothel hidden in a Lisbon Falls massage parlor. Doo Ri Kim, 39, apologized in U.S. District Court for violating federal laws that prohibit interstate travel for the commission of crimes and said she welcomed her probable deportation to her home country. According to court documents, Kim entered the United States illegally in 1998 and lived in Flushing, N.Y. She moved to Lisbon Falls last January, where she worked at the Asia Acupressure Therapy Center at 578 Lisbon Road. She was arrested in June.

New York January 12, 2005 Byungki Koo became the second federal law enforcer charged with helping Kyongja and Wun Hee Kang try to evade charges that they lured two young women from Korea to work as hostesses at their bar in Queens. The women say they were physically and sexually assaulted after they refused to have sex with customers. http://www.newsday.com/news/local/state/ny-bc-ny--debtslavery0111jan11,0,4581983.story?coll=ny-region-apnewyork AIR-MARSHAL HELD IN SEX-SLAVE CASE Brooklyn, New York January 12, 2005 A U.S. air marshal was grounded by the feds yesterday for obstructing an investigation into a Korean couple suspected of smuggling young women into the country to force them into prostitution. ★Byung Ki Koo, 33, was held without bail at an arraignment in Brooklyn federal court yesterday after he turned himself in to the FBI to face obstruction charges ★that carry a maximum sentence of life in prison. Koo is accused of trying to protect accused human traffickers Wun Kang and his wife Kyongja Kang by joining a plot to put one of their victims onto a flight to South Korea after she told authorities she would blow the whistle on the smuggling scheme. The Kangs are accused of helping South Korean women come to the United States for a $10,000 fee, promising they could work off their debt by hostessing at the couple's Flushing, Queens bar. The women — who are cooperating with federal investigators — were promised they would not be required to have sex, according to court papers. But as soon as they were in the U.S., Wun Kang allegedly suggested they could earn more money by sleeping with customers. After they repeatedly refused to prostitute themselves, Kang allegedly threatened to kill them and made plans to sell them to a brothel in Chinatown http://www.nypost.com/news/worldnews/38051.htm
