Kochibang

Kochibang is a Korean slang term, romanized as "kochi-bang" (꼬치방). It refers to a type of establishment, typically a karaoke room or private room setting, where suggestive interactions or sexual services are offered. It is considered a form of prostitution in South Korea, though the specifics of what occurs within these establishments can vary, and operators often attempt to avoid explicit illegality. The term carries a strongly negative connotation due to its association with the sex industry and exploitation. The legality of Kochibang is complex and subject to interpretation and enforcement. The name itself is a euphemism, hinting at the services offered without being overtly explicit.
