Thai Woman Denied Entry to South Korea Over Odd Immigration Query

At least he didnt ask her for money to enter like they do in Thailand,

You're saying that Thai IOs at the airport desks will take cash to allow entry to those who, otherwise, wouldn't be stamped in? Obviously, you cannot back up that claim. can you?

  • Just a hunch, but I think she was declined due to the high influx of single Thai females flooding South Korea pretending to be tourists and ending up working in the sex trade. 

  • At least hundreds go every year then overstay as illegal workers, not surprised a lot get refused entry.

this whole story is BS.

 

approx 150k thai are in SK illegally. this is why you are being treated in such a manner. customs are more than right to rigorously question these women. i am willing to bet they are ordered to scrutinize single thai women even more. they have every right to. don't like it. then don't come.

 

i don't believe for 1 minute that she is telling the whole story. customs asking those kinds of questions is illogical and irrelevant to the situation. i don't believe those were the questions asked of her either. a certain line of questioning may of led to similar questions like she is saying but i call BS. more than likely she was denied for a number of red flags. without all the information its all speculation on my behalf. but as a trained customs and immigration officer myself.... it doesn't add up.

 

a video would be great of these situations. the frustrations are coming from those who want to skirt the system. 

Immigration, not Customs.

Loads of posts from foreigners having the same experience trying to enter Thailand.

Karma.

So immigration doing their job screening in coming foreigners is somehow not ok or an overreach of their duties?
