[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Young-eun] A man in his 40s who confined a housekeeper in a room and forced her to sign a sex slave contract was sentenced to one year in prison.

On the 14th, the 6th Criminal Division of the Busan District Court (Chief Judge Choi Jin-gon) announced that it sentenced Mr. A (45), who was indicted for confinement causing injury and coercion, to one year in prison. On the afternoon of July 27, Mr. A (45) invited Ms. B (48), a housekeeper who had finished cleaning at his home, into a room and handed her a pre-written "sex slave contract," saying he was dissatisfied with the cleaning.

Mr. A threatened Ms. B, saying, "If you do not write your name and sign, I will file a complaint with the company and not let you leave the house," forcing her to sign.

The contract handed by Mr. A included contents such as "From now on, until I die, I will do as ordered and dedicate my body and flesh," and "I promise to absolutely obey all your commands and be your eternal slave."

Ms. B signed her name out of concern that Mr. A would complain to the cleaning company. Later, when Ms. B tried to leave the house with the contract, Mr. A held her waist and pushed her legs, confining her for about 10 minutes. During this process, Ms. B sustained injuries requiring two weeks of medical treatment on her knees and shoulders.

The court stated, "Considering the method and content of the crime, the nature of the offense is very serious. The victim appears to be experiencing difficulties in economic activities and is in a psychologically unstable state," and added, "The defendant made unreasonable claims that some of the causes of the crime were the victim's fault and did not take active measures to restore the damage," explaining the sentencing reasons.
