thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The claim "According to the Korean Institute of Criminology, 20% of adult males aged between 20–64 purchase sex at an average of 693,000 won ($580) per month" is not credibly supported. An opinion article on Korea Times is linked, yet the Korean Institute of Criminology has not published an article or statement supporting this (in either English or Korean), nor does this Korea Times Opinion article cite any resources. Korea Times is not a consistently reliable source. This should be properly supported by another source or removed. 210.98.49.253 (talk) 06:05, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Semi-protected edit request on 20 December 2016 

message: This article needs a cleanup of unreliable sources (and dead links). For instance, Shanghaiist is absolutely not a reliable source. Neither is someone's personal blog.
Also, how is something like "Some Korean women wear kimonos while working as prostitutes" important enough to be included in the article? If a news website reported that Korean prostitutes dressed up as Santa Claus should that too be included in the article? Seems like a case of WP:NOTEVERYTHING to me.

For a class project, I would like to add more accurate information about the history, methods (how they find/take/persuade girls and women), prevalence, and societal effects of prostitution in South Korea.

thread_title:  Editing Proposal 

message: The Korean Empire was annexed to Japan in 1910. In 1916, a licensed prostitution system similar to that of Mainland Japan was introduced. 「料理屋飲食店取締規則」(Regulations for control of Ryouriya and Insyokuten business), https://dl.ndl.go.jp/info:ndljp/pid/1464470, 290/555 「芸妓酌婦芸妓置屋営業取締規則」( Regulations for Control of Geiko, Syakufu and Geiko Okiya Business), https://dl.ndl.go.jp/info:ndljp/pid/1464470, 292/555 「貸座敷娼妓取締規則」(Regulations for Control of Kashizasiki and Syougi), https://dl.ndl.go.jp/info:ndljp/pid/1464470, 294/555 The purpose of the licensed prostitution system was to prevent sexually transmitted diseases (STD) and maintain public order and morals. Those wishing to engage in prostitution had to report to the police chief for approval. Licensed prostitutes were required to undergo periodic STD examinations, were prohibited from working at home, and were restricted to working in Ryouriya (licensed restaurants) or Kashizasiki (licensed brothels). The location of the Ryouriya and Kashizasiki was designated by the Local Governers.
To obtain a license for prostitution, a person had to appear at the police station in charge of the place of work and submit an application form stating her legal domicile, address, name, date of birth, place of business, and co-signed by her employer, along with the following documents. 1. Parental consent form, 2. Approver’s seal registration certificate, 3. A copy of family register or civil registration, 4. A copy of the contract regarding the prostitute business and the advance, 5. A written statement of personal history and the reason for engaging in the prostitute business, 6. A medical certificate from a physician designated by the police chief. The application was approved on the condition that the application documents was in order, the applicant was 17 years or older, free from infectious diseases, and no unfairness in the contract.The contract with the employer was mult-year indenture contract with an advance payment as in Japan, and the advance payment was usually paid to her parent.
Licensed prostitutes were classified as Geiko (including Kisaeng, women who perform traditional dances and musics at banquets), Syakufu (women who entertain guests by serving drinks at banquets), and Syougi (women who provide sex services in Kashizasiki). Geiko and Syakufu were allowed to engage in sex services at Ryouriya where they worked if they applied for and received approval as a prostitute as well, and called as double licensee. However, the lodging of guests in Ryouriya was forbidden. Outside the Japanese empire, the name "Syougi" was not used in consideration of the international movement to abolish prostitution, and Syougi was also referred to as Syakufu. 関東局施政三十年史(Thirty-year history of the administration of the Kanto Bureau), https://dl.ndl.go.jp/info:ndljp/pid/1878321, p.799 
The number of these Ryouriya and Kashizasiki, the number of licensed prostitutes, the number of licensed prostitute recruiters, the number of venereal disease examinations and the infection rate, etc. were listed in the annual report of the Government-General of Korea. 国立公文書館アーカイブ（National Archives of Japan Digital Archive), 
https://www.digital.archives.go.jp/file/1252950.html At the end of 1942, 「朝鮮総督府統計年報（昭和１７年）」(Statistical Yearbook of the Korean Governor-General(1942)),
https://dl.ndl.go.jp/info:ndljp/pid/1454691, p.247, 280-262 the number of Ryouriya was 515 run by Mainland Japanese, 1,007 for Koreans, 94 for foreigners, total 1,616, the number of Kashizasiki was 219 run by Mainland Japanese, 250 for Koreans, total 469, and the number of people for Geiko, Syakufu and Syougi was 1,797, 240, 1,774 for Mainland Japanese, 4,490, 1,376, 2,076 for Koreans, 0 for foreigners and the number of licensed prostitute recruiters was 194 for Mainland Japanese, 3,537 for Koreans, 0 for foreigners. The number of crimes involving kidnapping and abduction was 513, the number of arrests was 514, and the number of persons arrested was 1 for Mainland Japanese, 746 for Koreans, and 0 for foreigners, total 747.Eyagi (talk) 01:45, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Japanese colonial era 

message: There seems to be some leftover suspicious edits from back in the days of massive sock wars on this article, which unfortunately weren't checked up on, probably due to link rot. As an example see Chinese-proti's contribution which, as I'm about to show with a non-rotten inline, isn't exactly accurate (but does show the persistent anti-Korean male bias from the socks). - Hunan201p (talk) 23:32, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
