SKOREA - More than six out of every 10 actresses have been asked to have sex with influential figures, according to a survey released by the National Human Rights Commission yesterday.

 

In the survey conducted by the Korean Women's Development Institute last year on 111 actresses, 60.2 percent of respondents answered that they had been asked to sleep with rich and powerful figures.

 

Most also said that such "sponsor" relationships are quite common in the entertainment business, said the NHRC.

 

 

More than 45 percent had been ordered to attend drinking parties and wait upon the participants.

 

More than 58 percent had experienced sexual harassment and 31.5 percent were physically harassed as well, according to the survey.

 

Some 21.5 percent were more directly forced, either by their agency or influential acquaintances, to have sex and 6.5 percent were raped.

 

The patrons are usually wealthy businessmen, producers, directors, agency heads, broadcasting officials and politicians.

 

The respondents were pressured to abide by the "requests" for the sake of their career, they also said.

 

Some 48.4 percent of the respondents said that they were deprived of acting opportunities shortly after refusing.

 

Aspiring actresses also received sex offers, though demands there was less demand to their obscurity, said the NHRC.

 

"A detailed special law is required in order to supervise entertainment agencies and to guarantee the sexual rights of female entertainers," said an NHRC official.

 

The KWDI's survey was the first one to be conducted on the sexual freedom of female entertainers.

 

The issue was brought into public debate last March as actress Jang Ja-yeon committed suicide, leaving hand-written notes detailing at the sexual relationships she was forced into by her agency. The documents were released by her former manager.

This is a woman's curse for being born beautiful... hard to be taken seriously and viewed as sex object. Better not to be too good-looking - it invites trouble.

Many of the Female Stars you see on the screen DID those things before they are famous.

After famous they wanna stop it but their past came back to haunt them.

 

Actually, if you are already famous enough, just be the Whistle Blower and not ....

Shame them SiKeBe B@stards...!

It is not always the female. They are unlucky (or lucky?) if the top are powerful guys, producers are straight. If the top are female instead or they are gay which prefer male counterpart. Who do u think their target will be?
