Room cafes I seen some vids on the ones in Japan a few years ago I did not know they are in Korea now, I thought Korean Laws would be more strict on these things. Grate vid Jina and you are looking so beautiful as always girl ❤😊

[@sara.cbc92]

Koreans always copy Japan.

[@flinx]

Inadequate sex education + easy places to have sex = more teenage pregnancy. That's bad for the parents, unless the government provides lots and lots of support. I don't think Korea's government provides enough support, so some part of the equation should change.

[@adzrazakiyaaa82]

i've read about the room cafe in twitter yesterday, and now you make this videos! thanks jinaa~

[@virginiealohaa8163]

What about university students in dormitories or shared houses? They can also do whatever they want as they're finally free and far away from their parents So if young people are going to do mistakes, it's not just in the rooms cafes or dvd-bangs lol So I really think the fault is on the law and /or on the owners of the cafes about allowing these 'rooms cafes' to even have separate rooms in the first place!

[@andromeda1903]

that's the café owners' faults! they turned the café into a motel and expect people to not have sexy time in there? weird! i noticed this in kdramas where people had private dining rooms and i thought it was cool btu i didn't know about the bedroom part 0_0 btw, i'm just starting to learn korean because it's such an interesting and beautiful language... so is your actual name kim jin-a? just curious

[@RussellH318]

You are so awesome!

Jina looks so pretty! 😍

There are similar places here in Singapore. They are marketed as places to watch shows with your friends or SO in privacy for a few hours. You get a whole space with walls, not just curtains. There is a TV, comfy sofa and etc. So far no negative annotations attached to these places. People are free to do what they want to do because if they wanted to, they could do it anywhere. Karaoke, handicap toilet, etc

[@me9981]

There are similar places in a lot of countries in Asia...I wonder why is it like that... I mean...I don't see that in Europe.

[@ren1759]

In ghana we have something similar theyre called movie houses

In Vietnam, we have film cafes (just like room cafes in Korea). In film cafes, there are rooms in which a big screen/a TV is set up to watch movies with a bed. In some film cafes, you can book a VIP room that has its own bathroom. Basically, you need to book in advance a room and set up the time, and choose the film you want to see, or just choose Netflix if there is Netflix. Then you order food/drink. You will pay per hour or overnight (the prices are different). In actuality, film cafes act just like motels/hotels, but with films :))) My boyfriend and I usually go to film cafes to have some privacy, and we are adults, it's fine. But yes, like you said, teenagers can go there too, so it poses a danger for those who are not educated well about sex.

Jina you looks so pretty 💙💙❤️🥰

[@slavvalb3933]

Hi Jina, my notifications are on, yet am still missing your videos 😢. Coming too late. So, my question is this. This look like Love motels rather then cafes. The caveat is this. We all know what they are doing in those private rooms. Unless they use protection, I would say than the more babies should be born adter this. There should be no more low birth rate in S. Korea. 👍

[@ONCEbittenTWICEshyshyshy]

We were all teenagers once, and we all know that if teenagers want to have s3x, they are going to do it no matter what. Its better for them to have a safe, clean and comfortable place to do it. Teens that pick these safe places are also more likely to practise safe s3x

[@jaxi177]

I guess this is where the saying, "when there is a will, there is a way" makes sense to say... I know that if I wanted to "do the dew" I would do it regardless of where it was, and I did lol!!! And my guardians were EXTREMELY strict.

[@ForestvilleOppa]

Before this video the only rooms I've heard of were the PC and Singing rooms. This was very interesting. GIVE US MORE!!!! So kids here may have parties where a group gets together but kids don't really date like that until after high school. But the fast ones are doing it in school bathrooms if the rumors can be believed.

[@erikaalvarez5121]

Interesting

leggings room ❤Sounds delicious Korean people never abuse or misuse or get vandal on anything if it's in my realm wow !! gives me chills dear

[@fuzzball4258]

That is like the states. USA. We have massages palors. It is registered as that but police raid them frequently because it is basically just for sex. Same type of thing. You’re looking very sweet today.

[@complikaty9740]

Not really the same thing and that happens in Korea too.

[@fuzzball4258]

@@complikaty9740 you’re right. It isn’t the same thing. I just didn’t know how to say it without being nasty on your channel. Do you see the message under here? Is that just a scam? You should block them on your channel.

Here in Japan, love hotels are plentiful, but for adults only, so if you're a teenager, you're more likely to go a karaoke box (although some have windows). 😬 In the US, it was all about having a car. Car == freedom to go anywhere, and basically also became your own mobile personal space to "take care of business." 🤣 Personally, I don't care if teenagers are doing their thing in a room café. They're going to find somewhere else to do it anyway.

[@kaikito7662]

They ARE love hotels. ....notice the beds?

[@MadsThePunk]

Those "cafes" should be further investigated, but it'll probably be covered up and stay open. I'm guessing it'll promote a lot of sex trafficking and assault.

[@kenyoung6666]

I can imagine how problematic it is for the country. It’s really a motel! It’s pretty obvious people would use it to have sex since it’s cheaper than an actual (registered) motel. Not just minors, I bet adults as well. Won’t even be surprised if celebrities use it for that too hahahahahahaha

[@jjiscool]

Im so glad police are preventing teens having it at early age. It can ruin their life! They should try to do something better.

[@roshnik5137]

Sex doesn't ruin anybody's life, it's natural.

[@jjiscool]

@@roshnik5137 natural for matured people , not immature teens.

[@MrRockypies]

I wonder if the Cafe has security cameras in rooms. Very classy establishment 🤣

[@MrRockypies]

Thanks ​@itsjinakim1but I prefer the real itsjinakim. Ssi Bal Nom 🤣

[@USSJ2Otaku3084]

Looks like a love motel. For sure, that they're not going to do it at home, so they're going to do it somewhere else. Not really surprised.

[@MrRichard1280]

Are not there any church youth social events that teenagers could attend as a group in order to help avoid the temptation?

[@complikaty9740]

Are there cameras in these rooms??? Why would anyone go there if they're being recorded... and if it's minors that's even more ick. And sounds like a big liability for business owners.

[@dd1ee2vv3oo4nn5]

So basically Jina you are saying the couples are in there Rawdogging. 😄😆😅🤣😂

[@Rascilon25]

These look just like day hotels in Japan.

[@LucasS541]

if the parents were not as disgusted about this natural part of life teenagers wouldn't need to hide when they did it, it's simples as that. the more taboo it is, the more unsafe it gets.

[@ghrtyuomlrfsbnkpoljiewckpa7102]

Hi Jina. Good morning. I know your waiting for that charming handsome man but you will get one sooner than you think.🙂 Or you can date me lol.

[@Ghouth998]

[@RosalieElnekave]

intimacy and love becoming so cheap and so commercial have made the human race closer and closer to animals 😪

[@lixiu8654]

If teens want to have sex, they'll do it at a park, a friends house, there own basement...they'll find a way...people are wasting their time crying about this.
