Asian brides for sale




The mail order bride industry is flourishing in Asia, but is it also leading to sex trafficking and domestic violence?
More than a third of South Korean men in rural areas married foreign brides last year. While some unions are happy, the industry has also led to sex trafficking, domestic violence and murder.

Authorities are cracking down on illegal agency activities but the Korean government is facing calls to implement a stricter screening of interracial marriages.
