New York, Jan 8 : A group of former prostitutes in South Korea have accused some of their country's former leaders of encouraging them to have sex with American soldiers who protected their country from North Korea, The New York Times has reported.
They have also accused past South Korean Governments, and the United States military, of taking a direct hand in the sex trade from the 1960s through the 1980s, working together to build a testing and treatment system to ensure that prostitutes were disease-free for American troops.
