[사회]He said it was a’healthy’ massage center…

[앵커]

These days, you can easily find the signboard of a healthy massage center on the street.

Some businesses are being abused as a hotbed for illegal sex trafficking around the clock.

It was aimed at the point that it was not subject to gathering bans, but it emerged as a quarantine blind spot as the crackdown was not reached.

Reporter Kim Woo-joon covered it.

[기자]

A crossroad in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

There is a large massage parlor in the middle of the boulevard.

It is open 24 hours a day and night.

[안마원 관계자 : (지금도 영업하나요?) 그럼요.]

Is it a place where you can only massage as directed, I went inside.

When the elevator door opens, an employee stands in the way.

They asked where they were being introduced, and asked.

[안마원 관계자 : 어디 보시고 오셨어요? (인터넷 보고 왔는데) 인터넷 어디 보고 오셨어요?]

As if it was a confidential facility, the employee went through strict identification checks, and the employee spoke to the body.

[안마원 관계자 : ○○○이 24만 원인데, ○○○회원가로 하시면 21만 원이요.]

Only the signboard is a massage center, and it is a place that mediates prostitution.

From broad daylight, if you walk a little from a business that engages in sex trafficking, a police box will appear in front of you.

It’s less than 50m away.

It is a guts business without worrying about the police crackdown.

I went to another massage center nearby.

The sign of the mouth, which is a licensed place, stands out.

If you ever went in, it’s an illegal sex trade.

[안마원 관계자 : 기본 23만 원이고요. ○○으로 진행하면 25만 원이고요.]

Massage shops, massage parlors, and massage parlors are not subject to gathering bans due to COVID-19.

These quarantine guidelines were abused by prostitution owners.

[유흥업소 관계자 : 아가씨들이 돌고 돌고 하는 거예요. 코로나 때문에 문을 닫았어요. 거기 아가씨가 20~30명 있어요. 그 아가씨가 어디 가겠어요. (안마방) 주변으로 갈 것 아녜요.]

Is the crackdown going right?

When I reported to the local government in charge of management, I pushed my back to go to the police station.

[강남구청 관계자 : 성매매 관련해서는 경찰에다가 신고하는 게 제일 빠르긴 해요. 유흥업소 경우에도 위생과에서 하지만 이게 공무원이 나가서 하는 게 제한적이다 보니까….]

The answer that the police station could not enter the scene was returned.

[경찰 관계자 : 현관부터 뜯고 들어가는 건 요즘에 조금 (어렵죠.)]

As such, it is impossible for the Corona 19 quarantine to work properly.

As it is illegal business, it is difficult to expect to prepare an access register or disinfect facilities.

There are places like time bombs that do not know when the outbreak of mass infection will explode.
