Lonely Planet review for Jagalmadang
While anti-prostitution laws were recently tightened and the sex trade is supposed to be gone, Jagalmadang is one of Korea's 'big three'; the other two are in Busan and Seoul. Apparently the streets of Jagalmadang were once paved with small stones so that any girls trying to escape (or customers trying to get some action for free) would be heard. Although the lights are mostly pink, not red, it's a curious scene and can be interesting for foreigners, even women.
Don't expect gratis nudity though - the women read, slurp noodles or text-message on their mobile phones.
