This comes at a time when social distancing policies have extended another 2 weeks and also pics at the weekend of people lining to enter clubs. 2,146 establishments were ordered to close, but 422 still remain(ed) open.
Surprised that the Mayor used the word "room salon" which are basically "glitzy" underground brothels where businessmen pay to drinks with women, sex included upstairs if pay more.
On a side note, a Korean friend who used to intern at one of the top banks in Korea used to be sent with stashes of cash on Monday mornings to pay a local karaoke which would in turn pay the local sex room salon for the bank's previous week's visits.
So it basically takes coronavirus to shut down room salons. My oh my.
"(I) issue an order on banning gatherings at 'room salons,' clubs and 'colatheques' until the government's social distancing campaign ends on April 19," Park said, "referring to bars where mostly women serve drinks and a local version of discos". yna.kr/AEN20200408006…
