The Traumatic Impact of South Korea’s Spy-cam (Molka) on Women As Depicted in the 5 and 6 Episodes of Korean Drama Business Proposal

Annyeong everyone, meet again with me, Rinan 😊 as usual, this week we will continue a review session on an awesome and a refreshing rom-com Korean drama entitled Business Proposal. I am really excited to share this with all of you because amid heavy plot-driven Korean dramas these days, we all need a more refreshing drama. Let’s check it out!

The fifth and sixth episode of Business Proposal follows the story w
hen finally, Kang Tae Moo knows that Shin Ha Ri and Shin Geum Hi are the same person, but an interesting topic comes from the spy-cam crime against Ji Yeong Seo in her apartment. The camera is hidden and installed by a man who gives the lamp to her as a gift for her as a new neighbour. Those two episodes were aired on 14 and 15 March at 22.00 on SBS TV and Netflix every Monday and Tuesday.

The world has changed a lot, from traditional to modern, from undeveloped to developed. South Korea is an example of this movement. South Korea is a poor country that has successfully transformed into one of the high-income economies in the world. It changes almost all aspects of South Korea. However, as it changes so fast, some of the previous cultures and customs have been carried out until now, which meant the economy in South Korea might change, but society hadn’t actually changed at all. Confucianism and patriarchal are examples of culture that upholding until this modern era. The worse impact of these values is that women are still powerless than men. There are a lot of crimes against women in South Korea. One of them is spy camera problems or Molka crime.

Spy camera or Molka in South Korea is a term for hidden cameras or miniature spy cameras secretly and illegally installed, often in order to capture voyeuristic images and videos. The video will be consumed in private for people who installed or consumed and published to the dark web or to the web that wants to buy the videos or photos. Spy cam is a serious and crucial crime in South Korea. As one of the modern countries, it breaks people’s hearts, the public and the world in responding to the issue. Not only in toilets, the hidden cameras are also installed in changing rooms or in public places that are usually used by women.

This crime causes trauma for the victims. Based on the Business Proposal drama, Ji Yeong Seo is afraid to go to the toilet at her office. She becomes trauma with a new person, especially a man. She does not feel safe even in her own apartment. Fearful and traumatic impacts become the most common thing for the victims. And for the doer, he does not sentence in a proper punishment for his case. Episode 5 and 6 really represent the real phenomena, especially crime against women in South Korea. Spy cam or molka and digital sex crimes have become a crisis for modern countries like South Korea.

So, yeorobun, the spy cam cases in Business Proposal drama. What do you think about it? Lemme know ya!
