Coincidence?

Maybe. But the timing is certainly perfect.

Two articles in The Korea Times are about sex crimes.

The first says that foreigners who committed a sex crime cannot enter or re-enter Korea. Apparently, in the past, there was a simply a waiting period before the criminal could come back and start again.

From the story:

'Foreigners convicted of such crimes were previously subject to deportation, but could re-enter the country after a five-year waiting period.

Since the regulations came into effect last month, two foreign residents confirmed to have committed sex offenses in the past were deported and permanently banned from entering the country again, according to officials.'

Also in The Korea Times today, is a story about a group of Koreans who are being charged with numerous sexual crime charges in Canada.

'Ha and both Lees face a total of 67 charges that also include administering drugs for sex and making child pornography.

The multiple alleged assaults involved four female victims ― three women and an underage girl ― who are said to have met the suspects through a Korean community church in the greater Toronto area.'

 Like I said, the timing of these two stories is simply perfect.
