    I used to live in South Korea. It is closer to 80 hours, 90 if you include the frequent mandatory after work drinking time with the boss which sometimes includes being forced to be unfaithful to your spouse if you are a man or to provide sexual favors if a woman. The use of prostitution is extremely common, particularly among corporate South Korea. Then there is sexual assault and harassment for women in the workforce.

    So yeah, South Korea is wonderful /s

      God damn, thanks for sharing your experience. I remember reading that an ungodly percentage of the elderly (mostly female) population is stuck engaging in prostitution due to social security cuts / austerity. Just so much more free than their “tyrannical” North 🙄
