Why do some Korean men prefer going to the "KISS room" than having sex? Looking at male psychology from the emerging porn industry in South Korea

The "KISS room" can bring customers a completely different feeling from simple sexual consumption, providing a feeling of tenderness and intimacy with their lovers.

If you have ever been to South Korea, you may have seen many signs with "KISS" or a big "K" written on Hongdae Street. This is not a clothing store, but Korea's emerging porn industry "KISS". "Fang", commonly known as "LaTian Fang". What is a "La Tongue Room"? As the name suggests, it is a business of "kissing the waitress in a dark room." Since it does not offer full services, and there are many young female college students as waitresses, it has attracted countless Koreans to "seek for fun." What exactly is the charm of this "KISS store"?



The secret of the KISS room: the heart-pounding "love atmosphere"

The main service provided by this kind of shop is "kissing". Some "KISS rooms" require reservations, but there are also many where you can register on the spot without making an appointment and enter on the spot to experience the pleasure of KISS. After entering, the counter staff will ask the guests to brush their teeth and have fresh breath before entering the private room. In the dark, waitresses will enter the room. These ladies will chat and joke with the guests first, creating a "love atmosphere", and then have a passionate kiss with the guests. During the kiss, the guests He often takes the opportunity to touch the lady, and the lady will respond with some obscene words, which makes the customer excited. Therefore, the "KISS room" is also called the "love room" by Koreans.

The "KISS room" does not provide a "full set" of services. Basically, it is kissing and touching. At most, you can add money to a "half set". Because there is no such in-depth service and the salary is higher than other part-time jobs, many waiters are young and lively. female college students, which is also the reason why many men are attracted to spend money. Think about it, in the dark, holding a young and lively female college student in your arms, kissing and caressing her wildly, this is the dream scene of many men, and how many people can help them regain the feeling of first love? Of course, all conversations in the "KISS Room" are conducted in Korean. If you don't know Korean, you may not be able to appreciate the essence of the "KISS Room" and receive the thrilling feeling of love.

Some people may ask: Isn’t the pornographic industry illegal in South Korea? The answer is: illegal. Therefore, "KISS room" is an industry that is on the edge of the law. After all, the nominal service is only kissing. According to Korean law, paid kissing is not an act of prostitution. But anyone who knows something about the porn industry knows that if other things are done in the room, or if both parties agree to go out to conduct other transactions, it is usually difficult to verify and restrict it. Besides, the attitude of the Korean police towards the porn industry is: they will arrest people only when there are major security incidents or when someone reports them. Basically, no one is in charge of a "KISS room" of this level.

South Korea also had a "red light district"

In fact, South Korea’s porn industry is more developed than we think. There was a time when South Korea's porn industry was legal, and officials also divided "red light districts" like the Netherlands. The most famous ones were Cheongnyangni, Miari, and Yeongdeungpo. However, during the 1988 Seoul Olympics, the South Korean government began to ban the porn industry in order to maintain its international image. Later, in 2004, it passed relevant regulations to ban porn industry activities, and South Korea's legal red light districts disappeared.

South Korea conducted a survey on sex trafficking experience among 1,050 men in 2016. 56.7% of them had sex trafficking. It can be seen that even if sex trafficking is illegal, many people still flock to it. In order to avoid being reported and investigated, South Korea's porn industry has gone underground. Apart from the well-known "Yongdeungpo Red Light District", South Korea's porn industry currently exists in the form of massage parlors. If the sign says Massage (마사지 ) or Spa are serious massage parlors. If it says massage (안마), it is most likely an erotic massage parlor.

Why not go to the "massage" but go to the "KISS room"?

Since there are "full-service" massage parlors, why did an industry like "KISS rooms" rise? Wouldn't "real guns and live ammunition" be more attractive? In fact, the satisfaction they can bring to customers is not the same. From a psychological point of view, kissing can express people's recognition and care for their close lovers. Many people even believe that kissing is an act that is more intimate and expresses love than sex. In addition, with the addition of "foreplay" Conversation and communication make the "KISS Room" bring customers a completely different feeling from simple sexual consumption, providing a feeling of tenderness and intimacy with their lovers.

Therefore, compared with other pornographic places to vent their desires, the "KISS room" can be regarded as a "little freshness" among them. After all, more people consume it for the "feeling of love" than for the catharsis of desire. This industry attracts mostly young people who like to pursue excitement. It is a bit like a low-end version of Taiwanese hotels. The porn industry in Asia actually has one thing in common: illegal but prosperous. Most people can think of Taiwan’s porn industry, and South Korea also has similar ones. All I can say is that the porn industry is really everywhere!
