A court ruling that the customs authorities refused to import’Real Doll’ (a silicone doll that resembles a human body) was unjustified, and the customs authorities set out to improve standards on how far the customs clearance of Real Doll can be allowed. Along with the voice of criticism that “the ruling that contains the male-centered view that the woman’s body is the subject of conquest is being repeated,” the ruling that permits customs clearance in accordance with the Supreme Court precedent continues, so it is resolved with a legislative law enacting and revising Realdoll related laws. Some point out that you should go out. The 5th administrative division of the Seoul Administrative Court (Judge Park Yang-joon) announced on the 25th that the plaintiff has decided on the 25th in a lawsuit for canceling the import customs hold against the head of the Gimpo Airport Customs Office recently filed by an adult product importer. In January of last year, the company imported one adult female real doll from China, and filed a lawsuit when the airport customs office saw it as a’product that harms the customs’ and suspended import customs clearance. The court judged that the hold of customs clearance was unfair, saying, “(Realdoll in this case) is not expressing the sexual part so that it can be evaluated as seriously damaging or distorting the dignity and value of a person.” In order to be a product that harms customs enough to limit income, it must have an explicit description that damages the dignity of a person. Realdoll is “similar to a real person, but it is a tool made for the purpose of satisfying sexual satisfaction.” There is a side. The same purpose was the Supreme Court ruling in June 2019 that Realdoll customs should be allowed. The attitude of the customs authorities is also changing as the rulings to allow Realdoll follow. An official from the Korea Customs Service said, “Realdoll is regarded as a product that hinders customs, and this position has not changed since the Supreme Court precedent in 2019.” “We are working on complementary work.” The Korea Customs Service is planning to appeal against this ruling. However, there are criticisms that the real doll, which is made similar to humans, is a tool that focuses on satisfying’the desire to conquer real women’, beyond mere libido. Kim Ji-young, a full-time research professor at Konkuk University’s Body Culture Research Institute, said, “While female sexual devices are produced in a way that amplifies senses such as color and vibration, male sexual devices become more similar to female body shapes, the higher the price. It is focused on how realistically a woman’s body can be conquered,” he said. “Realdoll is not just a feminine sexual device, but a problem in that it leads to sexual objectification of women.” In the situation where real doll imports are permitted by the Supreme Court ruling, legislation to regulate this is being proposed as an alternative. Yoon-mi Jang, public affairs director of the Korean Women’s Attorneys Association (attorney), said, “It is questionable whether it is legally correct to prevent real dolls from importing because real dolls are hateful in a situation where the import of sexual devices is permitted.” I said.
