Those who filmed thousands of sex videos with prostitution women and posted them on a review site were arrested.

The Gyeonggi Southern Police Agency arrested six people, including a man in his 30s, on charges of violating the Sex Trafficking Punishment Act, who filmed prostitution videos and posted reviews promoting businesses.

In addition to the so-called "late writers" like Mr. A, the police caught a total of 20 people, including prostitution owners and sex buyers.

Mr. A is accused of promoting the business by filming a video of sex with women in prostitution businesses in the Seoul metropolitan area, including Gangnam, Seoul, for five years from 2019 and posting it in the form of reviews on prostitution advertising sites.

In addition to tens of millions of won camera lenses and professional cameras, he filmed his prostitution video himself with lighting.

There are more than 1,900 sexual intercourse videos seized by the police alone, with a capacity of 5TB.

In addition, some videos were found to have been distributed on social media with information such as the stage name and age of women in prostitution exposed, and the Sexual Violence Crime Penalty Act was also charged.

A, an optical lens researcher who completed a Ph.D. program related to cameras, was also listed on the knowledge information site Namuwiki as a famous user of a sex trafficking late site nicknamed "Black Owl."

All five so-called late writers, including Mr. A, were ordinary office workers and were found to have committed crimes on the side.

The police also took measures to recover 1.25 billion won in criminal proceeds from suspects such as business owners.

In addition, we plan to send all the suspects arrested within this week and continue the investigation into the operator of the prostitution site.
