Thanks for posting these tour walk through videos of the red light sections of Villes. I was in Korea in a small farm town in 1983 and these videos brought back some powerful feelings of nostalgia for me. Does anyone reading this remember a club named “Silver Wave” in Seoul ? It was one of the biggest clubs there in 1983 and very popular among GIs.

I switched handles only in hopes of beating censorship and never said anything to support myself but only continued in my opinions! I even made a post that against your claims about me with the new handle to make very understandable that Rei was the same person. But just for you I will bring back the old handle for this post. It is good to see that you agree with the Manchu. Do you have a real life or do you just enjoy insulting various strangers from the safety of the internet. As for Thomas, I DID criticize the disgusting Koreans who traded women, a fact which you would know if you actually read my post before commenting.

Interesting that KT requires a word of support from herself as Rei. I can't see that working in her classroom, then again I'm sure her students know she is full of it. What a moooorooon!

REI,

I was a soldier in Korea for three years and for 20 years I have been an on again off again resident of Korea in a civilian business capacity. I'm curious your thoughts toward the Korean "perverts" that frequent "Businessmen" clubs, Room Salons, etc. There is NO shortage of Korean "barber" shops, massage parlors, etc. that cater to Koreans only so you really need to look in the mirror before calling Americans perverts as if they're the only ones that participate in Korea's sex industry.

A matter-of-fact…. Yongjugol, once a very popular juicy bar town for US Soldiers is now VERY popular with Korean businessmen – almost exclusively

I don't think that Manchu was really a soldier or even in Korea. As for GI, I am not denying that there were many disgusting Koreans who sold women to racist yankee perverts but that was a purely bad thing that did nothing but build-up crime. The economic development came from from international banks, export-focused development policies, and protectionist trade rules. These also helped China to develop without the need for any perverted old soldiers to give money to local criminals. It is sick and evil that American perverts actually expect Koreans to feel grateful for subsidizing human-traffickers who are the very worst kind of human beings. If you knew anything about economics you would not say such things.

You should learn to respect your elders. Especially since Im probably your daddy anyway! It suddenly occured to me that al this hostility must be because you are the offspring of some horney GI and some nasty Kimchi whore who allowed herself to get knocked up and then didnt get taken to the land of the big PX. Whats wrong did mommy make you hide in the corner of the hootch and watch while thousands of nameless GI's paid 2000 won each to do unspeakable things to her as she loved it? is that the reason you frigid? is that the reason your gay? Is that the reason you you have such blind hatred for Americans? Oh well, thats too bad, fact is the best sex I ever had was here in the good ole USA With the American women who give it away, not some dryed up skank of a kimchi slut with an inbread, halfwit of a kid eating kimbop in the corner with the won Id toss them because I felt sorry for them.

Rei, you are clearly a child when it comes to understanding how Korea became what it is now. Every country had to lean to walk. To reject how far Korea has come and how difficult it was, is to reject the efforts of those that came before you. Korea was not always a glowing country. Nor was America, or any other country. All had to walk before they could run. You would reject this. What a small mind you must have.
