This is probably not true. Korea is one of the only societies in which voyeurism is a top political issue for women. The police teams deployed to public restrooms to find hidden cameras have IIRC only found one, after searching 10s or 100s of thosands of restrooms. Their existence is not evidence for a high rate of female victimization, but rather evidence that female issues are being taken ever more seriously.
- schleck8 5y agoIn Korean smartphones you can't turn off the camera shutter sound so that on the subway and other public transport upskirt photos can't be taken. Most voyeurim is done with smartphones. Also quoting the wiki article: > In June 2021, Human Rights Watch named South Korea as the number one country in the world for spy cam use So yes, it probably is true.
