Police bust prostitution ring targeting expatriates
Many people saw this coming, especially after the story made the rounds in the local papers but apparently UE Escorts did not so they were busted. Be careful out there!

A former U.S. soldier was arrested by the police on charges of brokering prostitution online. The Gangdong Police Station on Tuesday arrested a 27-year-old U.S. citizen identified by his initial L and also booked six of the prostitutes. People who bought sex on the site or exchanged phone calls or emails with him will also face investigation, police officials said. The man opened a website, claiming to introduce foreign men here to dates or female escorts who were in fact prostitutes. He posted naked photographs of the hired women, with their faces hidden.Below the pictures were marked the women’s age, available hours and their hourly fee, of which 20-50 percent were handed over to L.
The prostitutes, from countries such as Russia, Vietnam and the Philippines, were mostly hired through online job ads supposedly looking for waitresses.
A total of 200 customers have so far used the website, most of them being U.S. soldiers or native English speakers working here, according to the police.
Under the present law, those caught for brokering prostitution on the Internet are to face a maximum jail term of three years or a maximum fine of 30 million won ($26,834). A newspaper made a report earlier this month about such websites and the rampant online prostitution practices which go unnoticed on the Internet. The police were largely unaware of the websites, according to the report. The Gangdong Police Station began the investigation afterward, police said, sending in a female officer undercover to collect evidence.
It also says next target is Pink

The police got the information of Pink and UE escort from Craigslist and it says their next target is Pink and already started to work on them.
Be careful.

My friend told me it says the police already have 41 customers info. Of Pink.
But I have no idea if the Pink knows this or not. Anyway their web site shows their phone number, it's a very stupid idea. But maybe good for their business. In Korea. If you are willing to contact some escort, go find some agency or independent which has a strict procedure. The police think they are not easy and let it go.. Especially independent. They prefer some big agency.
Renaissance Area - paydirt
[QUOTE=Kimchi Warrior]After my excursion in the back alleys of Soellung Station and a little R&R at "Call", I headed over to the Renaissance to recon for the much talked about Baek Sung.
For those comng from further afield, and automotively-challenged, your best bets are either Seollung Station or Yeoksam Station on the subway. From Seollung, leave by the most northwesterly exit (sorry, don't know the exit #, but you want a little challenge don; t you? ), and proceed west along the northside of the big boulevard, Teheran-no, a few blocks until you reach the Renaissance Hotel. As I said it's about a ten minute walk, and the Hotel can't be missed.
For those getting off at Yeoksam, do the reverse: exit at the most northeasterly access stairway and walk due east along the northside of Teheran-no until you reach the hotel. It's probably a little closer to Yeosam than Seollung.
When you get to the Hotel go to the side street running north along its west side. For those who are directionally-challenged, look for the Buy the Way convenience store that is on te corner of the side street and Teheran-no.
The usual suspects are all located on the three alleys that run west (left) and generally uphill off the side street. There are at least a dozen or more establishments, and they are that: most are 5-6 story buildings of substantial size.
According to a previous poster, the renowned Baek Sung is on the second alley about a third to halfway up in a Mediterranean-style building. I didn't see anything I would describe as Mediterranean, but there was a building in a sort of pastiche of late Renaissance-eraly Baroque style, with vestigial ironwork balconies tacked onto the windows on the front facade, in the indicated location. If it is indeed the former Baek Song, it's now called Myeong Ka, but the sign (over the door) is in Hangul. The other principal visual features are the main entrance at the lower right hand corner of the building, flanked on the left side by 2 or 3 narrow display windows behind which are mannequins decked out in elaborate feathered gowns, nest to which is the car park with the famous Korean "modesty curtains".[/QUOTE]I was in Seoul ten days ago and had done my research on the Forum. I really wanted to try an anma; anyone can arrange an in-call in any major city in the world. A major goal of international mongering is the local experience. Thanks to the Forum, I took away the lesson of "go early", and go to a foreigner-friendly venue. The best bet seemed to be down by the Renaissance, lots of options, especially as the directions were so clear.
I tried the first side street and saw northing that looked like massage, though there were some clubs. The third side street had dozen of clubs, but nothing that looked like an anma massage. The middle street had three, right in a row, on the north side. The first one, Queen, told me at 1130 to come back in two hours. It had a big sign out front in English as well as Korean; the symbol is the queen from a deck of cards. Can't miss it. The next two (the middle one was probably once upon a time the Baek Sung as the building fits the description quoted) told me that they were reserved for Koreans only. To kill time, I checked out the surrounding area and found at least a half dozen other anma, all of which told me "no foreigners".
At 1300 I returned to Queen, was welcomed, paid Won 200, 000, and was taken upstairs by the papasan, a young chap with some English. He took me to the room, perhaps 3X4 meters, which had a bathroom area carved out of one corner, clear glass walls, shower, sink, and toilet. I had drawn "Jenny", a very petite woman aged about 30, cute enough, but not beautiful. After a decent interval where we determined the limits of verbal communication, she got naked and undressed me, then headed for the shower, where she washed me thoroughly and not particularly sensually. After drying me off, she put me on the bed and told me in broken English she was going to take a leak and then a shower. Which is what she did, clearly visible through the clear glass walls. I was slightly floored.
Back to bed, all clean, and little pretense of a massage on her part. She licked and kissed and nibbled all over, both sides, which had the desired effect. Liberal roaming allowed, but no kissing. After perhaps 10-12 minutes, she turned 69, presenting a lovely sight (and site!) for additional play, whilst performing a CBJ, which was good, though not extraordinary. Then, without preamble, she swiveled around, inserted me, and spent several minutes up and down, before settling into mish for another few minutes. I took a while and she was quite patient, made the right little sounds, nibbled on the ears, and so on.
Afterwards, she cleaned me up, then, of all things, as part of a face massage, applied a "masque". I was gobsmacked, but was in this for the experience, so acquiesced. In five minutes or so she took off the mask, did a little more face and scalp massage, then got me dressed. One hour on the dot. A quick call and papas an appeared to escort me out. All was very cordial. I believe the Korean price is 180K and that I had paid a small premium. Fair enough.
This was by no means a GFE; it was, however, a look into another world. I could see that with the right vibes, the right setting, this way of doing "massage" business could be very pleasant indeed. I guess that was the only down side to the experience. Having seen its outlines, I know I can never have the full experience.
