Most of the men apprehended were either overstaying visas or illegally working on tourist visas. Included among them was a player for a J-league soccer club.  [Japan Probe] [...] [...] It looks like the crackdown against Korean prostitution has even spread all the way to Japan: Japanese immigration authorities raided two popular Korean host clubs yesterday.  About 30 men were arrested, and 20 others were turned over to immigration.

There are many Koreans who make a good thing in Japan and I apreciate it, but unfortunatelly Japanese media shows bad image about them. That is regretable!! media is a powerful weapon to destroy the image of the people.

Many not guilty of overstaying visas were probably violating the terms of their tourist visas by working. The soccer player was likely engaging in a line of work not permitted by his particular work visa. Amusing.

I suppose the other 29 are going to be charged with illegally playing 'away matches'. I know one of them can be charged with playing soccer.

My question..if they sent 20 to immigration, what are the other 30 under arrest for? the same petty sex crimes Japanese hosts are committing but apparently NOT being arrested en masse for? Well 50 arrests of gaijin is sure to add a healthy fraction of a percent to those gaijin crime stats. Must be off-target for their first half of the fiscal year goal which ends in 3 weeks.
