"a man followed her because she was drunk" no, he followed her because he is a psycho

Police dealing with women be like: "Call us again when you're dead :)"

In my country, people blame the girl for staying out late or dressing *inappropriately*

Why is no one talking about the group of friends that had the girl waving at the camera and then one of them drags her out LMAO 😂

"Lack of evidence"?!! With a CCTV footage showing the guy and all his attemps to break in?! What else do they need, the girl's corpse?

That footage is scary. She is lucky that door closed just in time because it could've ended up so bad.

They would even get their sentence deducted when they’re “under the influence of alcohol”. That’s just sick, there should be no excuse for these types of actions.

Ooo.... My dream is to walk alone at midnight with headphones over my head in any part if this globe.. And I know this dream will remain only dream.

The man at 1:25 he is rare "How would i feel if i were that woman??"man like him should be more in the society ....

"stalking isn't a problem in korea" explain that to the thousands of peep cams in women's bathrooms and hotel rooms

Teach boys at a young age not to harm girls There should be classes all throughout the schooling period teaching both sexes that any type of abuse is wrong.

2:53 I like how the orange girl waved and her girlfriend instantly took her back. Then later she pops out on camera 😂😂

I love how they give detailed and thoughtful answers, in America they find the worst people to interview

*I'm waiting for the day when a woman who's DRUNK could walk ALONE on the street at 2:00 Am WITHOUT looking back* That's how much I want this world to be safe

I like how much Koreans can enunciate and are thorough in their details!

Tbh, maybe I am a foreigner, but when I went to Korea twice, I felt so safe there. I even felt safer than my own country. We are both girls and it was past midnight after drinks, there were absolutely no taxi on the street. So, we stopped and asked for help from a random young guy to look for a taxi for us and he was so sweet and kind. He made a call and even stayed with us until the taxi came. He talked to the driver to take us to our hotel. Another thing that I remembered was we were on the subway station looking so confused which way to go and a guy just came to us asking if we needed help. He even warned us to avoid certain areas in Seoul, saying it was not very safe to wonder around there. Generally, there are always criminals everywhere. There is no country that can provide you 100% safety, especially when you are a woman who are more prone to experience bad things since they see us as weak target.

The fact that people don't feel safe in "one of the most safest country" just makes me think how unsafe people feel in the most "dangerous country". Like just imagine those things happening in Korea then imagine how much worse it is in other countries.

"South Korea is considered to be one of the safest countries in the world" *Thinks about all the murder k-dramas I've watched*

Omg Tina! I watch her cooking videos on RU-vid now! She’s come so far

Thanks for making this video. We definitely need more awareness, when it comes to women's safety, in Korea and anywhere else.

My ex korean girlfriend had a stalker for one year when she was a student. She was scared everyday to go out. Some dudes are just creepy there.

Even in safe country u just gotta be careful!

DOOBYDOBAP SO THIS IS WHAT YOU WERE DOING BEFORE 😂

I am an Indian Girl and things are much much worse in India and the administrative system blames the girls/women for this incidents rather than punishing the perpetrators. Girls are even scared to stay at home , going outside late at night or living alone is far away from reality .

I think women in public place need to look out for each other...the system doesnt protect u, then we got to protect outselves.

Asian boss is such a woke channel, interviewing awareness spreading topics is real noice

I’m glad this interview was done. That happens to much all around the world and people have to act on this to stop it

Glad this was tackled in Asian Boss, especially since there have been a lot of undertones of women violence and discrimination in recent Kmedia. This has been enlightening and frightening at the same time. (Also, hi Dooby!)

Of course we should teach our daughters to keep themselves safe, but teaching boys not to harm the girls is also important.

The most important thing is: when something happens to women, the police is quite indifferent. They don't think it's a big deal. And most incidents didn't even count. The police officer will say something like 'call us again if you got hurt physically or something.' So this is not about the number of them but their attitude.

Yes Tina! and I thought the thumbnail was a jisoo pre-debut😶

16 case per day bruh WTF this Is a big big HUGE problem

The girl in red is so woke

The last woman is right. There should be more police patrolling around and not relying entirely on CCTV. I'm not saying everywhere. But divert resources with patrol officers where there is a history of those kind of incidences. And the police should host workshops for women on how to prevent or deal with situations where some creep is stalking them. For example, if you think you're being followed late at night, walk into a 24 hour establishment like a convenience store. And if you have a convenience store on your block or street, get to know the owner or workers.

Apart from the topic, I really feel good seeing the citizens of this country and the interviewer talking in their language only.

2:53 Orange girl- hello internet Her friends- what the heck *pulls her back*

I'n a foreign woman living alone here. I ride a bike so it's harder to follow me, and I will not enter my house until I'm sure someone isn't watching (if I'm alone at night). I've had too many times where men try to follow me or touch me without permission to not be wary.

If you are a woman, everywhere in the world even if it’s claimed to be safe, you will still feel unsafe and be scared for your self and for the other women. And sometimes even your own home doesn’t feel safe at all.

I’m korean and when i was in highschool many girl students walk alone in1am~2am because we have to go home after studying at study cafe😅 And I think it’s very rare and lucky to live in country that young age girls can walk freely at night and dawn

We need such content to spred awareness

Just Remember Kids, Low Crime Doesn't Mean No Crime!

2:52 I'm sorry but those girls distracted me I mean what the heck are they doing😂🤦🏻‍♀️💀

I'm from Denmark and in my city we have a group call night ravens who are a group of adults (often parents) who helps everyone in the night life to be safe and to get home safely. Maybe you should make a group like that in your city 😉

OMG I just realized the reporter is Tina!!!! Omg

So when is Asian boss gonna do a video on asking Koreans how they feel about the Burning Sun case being shut down and all the famous and powerful men involved being set free?

it would be so scary to be in that situation and sadly not many people talk about it, good thing these people gave very thoughtful answers

Asian boss ...thank you !,,

That's very subjective. I've seen in Korea they go out of a club at 3 am, pick up a cab and go home safe and sound (in most cases, I know from the video that it can be dangerous too) BUT, in my country, you could never EVER go out of a club at 3 am alone and not be assaulted, robbed, rapped, etc (even by the taxi driver). I live in constant fear of going outside, so, if this doesn't happen in Korea, I'd consider it safe. But, if you live there and this relatively rare situation happens to you, of course you wouldn't consider it safe 🤷🏻‍♀️

It's not only SK. It is everywhere in the world.. I didn't say that sentence to become against..I said that to remember you guys we aren't safe , you aren't safe .it's not girl? It's also boys... It's our mentality we grew up and we are.. We have forgotten our humanity in this new generation.. we've forgotten that why humanity word exits... That's what this sentence stands for.. I wasn't putting SK down.. I was putting the today's mentality down.. It's not me , it's not you , it's us who are in danger by us ..

That girl in the background 😑

I really love their accent, its caring and sweet☺️

I really like the youth's responses to these questions....they're a bit more woke than their elders and aren't afraid to question the system. I like the lady's insight into having more police actively and unexpectedly patrol the neighborhoods. Bravo!!

Scary that the Stalker was NOT worried about Apartment Security Camera!

the girl in the back i think if she knew what they were talking about or like understood like korean.... as they passed by they wouldn’t do the thing that they did good thing that its blurred that would have been embarassing very the interviewers being soo serious then pops up someone saying hi to camera...

Thank you, AsianBoss ♡

Korean people are beautiful

I've lived in 3 different countries, as a woman i definitely feel safe where i live right now (Canada) i can walk at 2AM all alone not afraid of being mugged or rape. Honestly that's a nice feeling 😄

I used to go home super late at night because of work and had to walk my way home, I never encountered these types of situations which I'm thankful for. But once, I happened to have a really bad haircut, and wanted to hide it, so I borrowed a friends hoodie to cover my head. I walked home at around midnight wearing it and there's this boy walking in front of me. Didn't really put any attention on him until I realized he continuously looked over his shoulders at me, then finally he suddenly started sprinting into the other side of the street. I was a bit shocked, it only dawned on me at that point that he thought I was up to no good. I felt so bad but, a bit humored at the same time. Then again, this might be a good strategy to avoid criminals, make them think you're the criminal instead j/k haha, honestly, I felt sorry for making him terrified like that, no one should ever have to feel that way

2:52 that girl on the backside(in orange shirt)...was waving hand and saying heyyyyy! *BUT* Asian boss blurred the BG! 😂💜 Ooops!😳

tina? i love your cooking content on tiktok

As a girl, some of what I can do when going home are: 1) keep a lookout for shadows coming from behind walls or corners along the corridor 2) once you unlock the door, go in immediately (if I have to do anything before going in, e.g. taking off shoes, do it before unlocking the door) 3) when going in to the house, try to look over shoulders to see if there's anyone Do share if you have other tips or pointers!

There's no place in earth thats completely safe maybe space is safer? if only we have good space suits

that kind of thing can be a big issue in Korea because it really rarely happens in Korea. in other countries it happens almost everyday so it can not be a big issue. for example if there is convinience store robbery in Korea. it will be aired on TV and can be a very big issue cause it is really rare.

One of my biggest dream is I can go out at night, strolling around the park and feel the night wind while stargazing too without feeling someone just gonna randomly appears out nowhere and do something against my will...and this apply for everyone too

I just went to Korea this oct. I was heading back to the guest house in Myeondong at quarter 11. The store are close, some perv slap my butt. Good thing I was wearing a thick long coat. The nerve. The funny thing I was on video call with my dad. So I place my dad on the screen and point out to him. He back off. And left. 😂

As a woman this video really broke my heart, i know it happens everywhere but still.

There are many crime zones in Korea. Never go to Shinan, especially Daerim-dong.

The girl in the thumbnail looks like jisoo

Ladies and gents alike, be alert and protect yourself. There are some nasty people out there.

2:54 The Caucasians are back at it again

”When looking for place to live, you have to think of its safety. But the fact that we have to is kind of ridiculous."..5:32...that guy is somewhat right, the fact that we have to do extra measure to make sure it is safe is sad. We live in a dangerous world, that's a reality, but its still sad..

Where are those army kids who dreaming to live in SK?

Scary...she looked really drunk so he probably followed her thinking he could take advantage of her 😱. I’m so happy she’s safe and I really pray she has someone accompany her home next time she goes out drinking or late night. ♥️

Every man and woman should be very careful no matter where they live, travel and work.

The interview is Tina from Doobydobam!!

An attempt is being talked about in Korea while the country I live in, rape has become so normal that even media doesn't throw any light on it! 😣

*No country is crime proof* One just have to prepare themselves for anything

2:53 no ones gonna talk about that? 😂 😂 I find it pretty funny and awkward. Poor woman, she just wanted to be on camera. ..

When I first visited a Korean friend's home, it was more of like their learning institution and a dormitory kinda thing in PH, so I was the only Filipino at that moment, when their leader (elder man) called me out when I sat on a chair, he told me to wait for my male friends to sit first before sitting. It's been 16 years ago but I thought it was worth sharing cause up until now I don't know why I had to wait for a male friend (same age) to sit first before I do just because I'm a female. I mean what's up with that?

I notice that almost all doors in SK open outward so I feel like if someone tries to follow one into the house, it’s hard to stop them from doing so. Just a thought.

In my opinion south korea is a safe country in general.But it doesn’t mean it is perfectly safe just like any other countries in the world.There is no such thing as perfectly safe.Of course there are flaws but it’s up to every individual to take precautionary measures to be safe in his or her own ways.But for me living in south korea in five years,South korea is a safe country and a beautiful country.

As a mexican girl living in Korea, I feel super safe when walking around the street. Unless is some man on their motorbike or some person driving lmao that's like the most dangerous thing bc they are careless about the people walking. I've been able to do lots of things I wasn't able to do back in my country, like going out by myself and going out at night.

It’s sad how so many women live these same experiences everywhere. I had a stalker when I was 20. He saw me at my job at the mall one day and just kept coming back to watch me and stare at me. When he started following me out of the store on my breaks, I tried to lodge an official complaint with mall security, but they said there was nothing they could do. Then one night, he hid in the back of my car and held me at knifepoint- I got away from him and then reported it, but there was no evidence, just my word against his. Ultimately I quit that job and prayed he wouldn’t figure out where I lived and went to university. Thankfully I was lucky, but it’s so upsetting that women can be openly intimidated and terrorized, and the greater response is “Welp 🤷🏼‍♀️”

I used to think that Korea was that dream place also I wanted to go to study there but know I am really really worried

Good that that door locks automatically when she closes. Here in Brazil that guy would make it easily since there wouldnt be time to lock the door with a key.

No matter how safe a country may be, you still have to watch your surroundings. Japan is also considered to be one of the safest countries in the world as well. But when I stayed in Japan last year, there was a rape incident in the building right across from mine and apparently the guy only got a slap on the wrist according to the people in the neighborhood.

I was so shocked ! OMG... If i was in her place seeing somenone following me i will be pass out at the right moment... I think she is really lucky to escape from him at that moment... I'm scared my hell out of this... I heard S. Korea is the safest country in the world and this had happends to there..And i can't even imagine about the accusations amd harassment occuring in our country day by day...No where is safe for women?

omg I just clicked on this video after watching doobydobap's shorts on youtube and was like "Tina??"

I have the feeling that here in Europe others in society are more willing to step in when they see something bad happening to someone else on the streets compared to a lot of Asian societies. I've lived a while in China and Japan and there I noticed that others mostly just look the other way. This is something I hate a lot about the cultures in East Asia

I read the title as “How dangerous are South Korean women” at first glance. Lol.

completely unrelated to the topic of this serious vid. tina from doobydobap! i never thought id see her here

Thank you. I am surprised such a thing happens in Korea. I guess there are also Bad Apples even in your culture. I pray the women stay on groups or at least couples and keep their eyes looking around. That kind of style is called Situational Awareness I am saddened to say I guess women more than men need to be aware of possible harm. I feel badly about this.

Great topic! I'm alone in Korea now and I have felt safe everywhere and will walk alone at night (which I would not do in a lot of other places). But I see I should not get too comfortable!

I've been living in korea for six months now and I feel like it's a paradise compared to my country (Chile, south america) when it comes to women safety. That doesn't mean there is not crimes against women. Men will be men everywhere unless they start being raised differently. I can walk here a little drunk after it gets dark while in chile i had 90% chance of getting my things stolen, or being molested or raped. I think the cameras have a lot of influence when it comes to safety in korea. Men think twice before doing anything because of cameras. But if they still do it, it gives to think. Why women are WAY less violent than men? why cases when a woman is the one commiting rape are so less than men? this is worldwide, no country is excluded. That means is not a problem of culture but a problem on how we raise our childs to be determined in their sex and gender. Why lesbian women can avoid catcalling women on the street and men have to even follow us? why do they think they can get away with it(and in most cases they can)? Something radical NEEDS to happen. Women are dying everyday by the hands of their lovers, ex boyfriends or some random guy that got rejected and felt his small ego hurt, women crying in silence while suffering intrafamilial abuse and violence. We have to fight for our rights, go out on the streets, defend ourselves. The answer is not for us women to learn self defense but teach men not grow to be rapists, murderers, violent humans, etc. Learn self defense is a short term help that in most cases you can't use because of the shock. I hope we can all think about all the women suffering in the world when teaching your boy manners, morals, and gender norms if you will.

In europe we still have old key to open the door, to me it feels safer than only 4 numbers to type to open a door. Unfortunately women are not safe anywhere and when assult is made on us we are shamed instead of finding and punishing crime...

I've lived in few cities such as NYC LA Long Island Seattle New Jersey I can tell you South Korea is one of the safest country for woman

People from all over world, have to be vigilant of your surroundings at all times and besides, you don't know where or when it will happen to you.

The cops should be lifting prints off the door where the guy touched.

Dude when she said compared to china and India I felt tears coming out of my eyes safety for women in India is nowhere to be found and as a women I can say that south korea is far more safer for kids being coming really late home safe won't ever be a case here
