How Dangerous Is South Korea For Women? | ASIAN BOSS

If you consider yourself a true fan of Asian Boss, become a member of our community to join the cause: asianboss.io
Recently, a CCTV footage of a man trying to follow a woman into her home went viral in South Korea. Although South Korea is considered to be one of the safest countries in the world, we wanted to ask ordinary Korean citizens how often these things happen and how safe they feel living in Korea.
The opinions expressed in this video are those of individual interviewees alone and do not reflect the views of ASIAN BOSS or the general Korean population.

Yup that’s why the guy was primarily charged with trespassing(the footage itself is only a circumstantial evidence and because the man didn’t get to actually break into the house, this might have not even been enough to prosecute him). then the police later changed it to attempted rape after they found out there’s more to the footage; the man threatening her to open up the door. Usually the police is not gonna act on it unless there’s something actually happened, which is ridiculous.

[@mx5hong]

The last woman is right. There should be more police patrolling around and not relying entirely on CCTV. I'm not saying everywhere. But divert resources with patrol officers where there is a history of those kind of incidences. And the police should host workshops for women on how to prevent or deal with situations where some creep is stalking them. For example, if you think you're being followed late at night, walk into a 24 hour establishment like a convenience store. And if you have a convenience store on your block or street, get to know the owner or workers.

[@grape1829]

$200 camera replaced every 2 years = $100/year. 1 cop is $40k/year. That's 400 potential cameras per cop, patrols are done in pairs so $80k/year. But that's for an 8 hour shift. For 24 hour surveillance, you need 3 shifts of 2 cops each which is $240k/year. That's equal to 2,400 cameras. I'd take the 2,400 cameras, thanks. And this is just a quick calculation that doesn't account for pensions or the economy's opportunity cost due to these cops eating up taxes as government workers vs. generating economic value for the country in the private sector.

[@nikkolisbeth9723]

In Australia, at least in Melbourne. We have pairs of police officers stationed at all (if not main) train stations from 6pm till the last train. I was actually stalked during then and I totally forgot there were officers. So when I got off the train the perp left and I quickly reported him but not fast enough for him to be caught :/

[@mochiinuo]

Not just the women. Men too, though these people are getting smarter by day. If we come up with some solution, they may come up with a better plan to commit these crimes. It's like a hacking system. Still, we need to work hard to prevent this.

[@maksymtt]

@@grape1829 So what do korean cops do everyday? Do they just sit in the office? If there's so many cops like the guy in the video said, they could easily put some of them in the streets. They're already getting paid. And buying CCTVs isn't like buying a consumer camera lol. Either way, I'm pretty sure cops and cameras can coexist.

They should have look at the neighbor country, Japan. They have a police teams that patrol around the neighborhoods all the time, called omawari-san.

Another thing that I remembered was we were on the subway station looking so confused which way to go and a guy just came to us asking if we needed help. He even warned us to avoid certain areas in Seoul, saying it was not very safe to wonder around there. Generally, there are always criminals everywhere.

Use a different route back home than that which you use out, whenever possible;Walk in groups, if possible; be aware of your surroundings always; keep ICE numbers on speed-dial; take the earphones out of your ears, and keep your cellphone out of sight; always carry a good pen or screwdriver within easy reach (saved me when a man tried to rob me at knifepoint-against my pregnant belly, might I add); make sure your shoes are practical- if you're wearing heels, use a car, or make sure they're comfortable and can double as a weapon, otherwise be combat-ready in sneakers or boots,especially at night; if you are a woman who lives alone, install cctv, and keep a pair of men's boots by your front door; a little self defense know-how, is a plus...

carry pepper spray. if you wear high heels, stomp on a guys foot as hard as you can, like a nail driven though his foot, and drive it to the ground. make him squeal and slap his face with your hand bag. but most of all, do not give up if you are in a situation. guys have a limit to the amount they can handle - then once they feel control is not possible, they give up.

It's gender INEQUALITY that is consistantly ranked one of the highest. And the fact that your talking about how women are treated in the western entertainment industry as if it's worse then Korea shows you don't know much about the industry here. Look up Jang Ja yeon first and go from there. It's a pretty open secret that some really shady stuff happens in the Korean entertainment industry not to mention the fact that, in Korea, entertainers are basically owned by their agencies. Once they sign a contract they have to take whatever jobs the agency tells them to; they have no right to accept or reject the way that Western entertainers do. And that's without mention of things like slave contracts and trainee debt and companies literally starving their artists. In fact one of the most famous Korean idols, Bo A has staight up said that she thinks that the reason she is so short is that her company starved her when she was growing. And this is a woman who debuted at 13 years old so she was a trainee before that. That means that she was literally starved when she was in Elementary and middle school. And her age as a trainee is not unique. Young kids are even taken away from their parents in Elementary/middle school to live in trainee dorms where they practice, study and function on just a few hours sleep. Not to mention how vulnerable these kids are to being taken advantage of (and it has come out plenty of times that some trainees are. Look up 'open world entertainment' for one example).

I've been living in korea for six months now and I feel like it's a paradise compared to my country (Chile, south america) when it comes to women safety. That doesn't mean there is not crimes against women. Men will be men everywhere unless they start being raised differently. I can walk here a little drunk after it gets dark while in chile i had 90% chance of getting my things stolen, or being molested or raped. I think the cameras have a lot of influence when it comes to safety in korea. Men think twice before doing anything because of cameras. But if they still do it, it gives to think. Why women are WAY less violent than men? why cases when a woman is the one commiting rape are so less than men? this is worldwide, no country is excluded. That means is not a problem of culture but a problem on how we raise our childs to be determined in their sex and gender. Why lesbian women can avoid catcalling women on the street and men have to even follow us? why do they think they can get away with it(and in most cases they can)? Something radical NEEDS to happen. Women are dying everyday by the hands of their lovers, ex boyfriends or some random guy that got rejected and felt his small ego hurt, women crying in silence while suffering intrafamilial abuse and violence. We have to fight for our rights, go out on the streets, defend ourselves. The answer is not for us women to learn self defense but teach men not grow to be rapists, murderers, violent humans, etc. Learn self defense is a short term help that in most cases you can't use because of the shock.

I know india is considered to be a rape capital by world media and people in general, but let me tell something about india . India is the 2nd most populas country in the world, so even a small percentage of cases is shown as huge . More than 50% rape cases are fake either for money or revenge ( laws in india are tilted in favour of women and minorities ) . India has its own problem and we are working every second to improve the conditions but the biased treatment which india gets is unfair .

[@Induroy2023]

@@rahulpal7938 really ?? Our women are safe says who ?? Ask some of those women shall we ... I am not saying everyone is getting raped all the time but it's ridiculous to say women are safe from inappropriate stares to groping in public places to getting degrading comments from men and rape is still a very prominent issue in India ... Indian men needs to learn how to control there sex drive ... Not saying all men do .. majority don't but the ones that do the percentage is quite high .. and in rural areas so many cases not listed or reported ...so please India has a long way to go in terms of women's safety ...

No place on earth is safe as long as there is human. ALIEN.

[@aguacateadosmilpesitos]

That's very subjective. I've seen in Korea they go out of a club at 3 am, pick up a cab and go home safe and sound (in most cases, I know from the video that it can be dangerous too) BUT, in my country, you could never EVER go out of a club at 3 am alone and not be assaulted, robbed, rapped, etc (even by the taxi driver). I live in constant fear of going outside, so, if this doesn't happen in Korea, I'd consider it safe. But, if you live there and this relatively rare situation happens to you, of course you wouldn't consider it safe 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@jimabrahamguillaume3301]

Idk where are you from?,but I think Canada is a very safe country for women like you,You can roam around the city even at 3am and you would be absolutely safe from perverts.

[@aguacateadosmilpesitos]

@@jimabrahamguillaume3301 this is the biggest of coincidences, me and my family are getting our papers done so my sister and I can go to study in Canada, and my dad to work there. I know it's probably not, but coming from a rough country, Canada sounds like heaven. I love my country (I'm Colombian) but it's such a bad place to live. We have guerrillas killing and raping girls in the countryside, we have one of the highest murder rates in the world, at one point, even the government was killing us. As much as I love my country and my culture, when you live in a place like this you can't help but thinking that places like Canada, (or Korea, keeping with the line of the video lol) are the safest countries ever. I hate being scared everytime I leave my house

If I think there's someone not quite right behind me when I go into my building I usually either take the stairs or get off the elevator at a different floor than the one i live on. That way it's harder for them to work out where I live. (I live in Korea and have been followed a few times by old drunk men)

Actually i’ve been living in Singapore for 6.5 years. Singapore is one of the safest country in the world too.. I ever being stalked by a weirdo twice b4 n it’s really gv me chill. Luckily the first one, i hv my maid who help me get rid of the stalker. And the second one, luckily it was in a crowded place. It was sooooo scary to think bout it tho. It’s not only happen on me. Even all of my girl friends (we are all foreigner)ever experienced it b4. The scariest one is the one who even waited for her to finish her work n follow her till her home. There’s a lot of cases like this n the stalker’s reasons usually like asking for direction (n then ask the girl where she’s come from. He will asked if the girl want to hv a drink or follow him to another place/country with him). Another one he’s waiting in front of the lift coz he doesn’t know which floor are u living, the other one asking about something but end up asking u for a little drink. We just want to being polite n a good person. But if people make use of our own good, that’s really shitty!
