South Korea has formally lifted a ban on the import of full-body sex dolls, ending years of debate over how much the government can interfere in private life.
Although there are no laws or regulations banning the import of sex dolls, hundreds, and perhaps thousands, have been seized by the customs, which cited a clause in the law that bans the import of goods that “harm the country’s beautiful traditions and public moral.”
Importers complained and took their case to courts, most of which agreed with them and ordered customs to release the sex dolls, saying they are used in people’s private spaces and don’t undermine human dignity.
On Monday, the Korea Customs Service said in a statement that it began enforcing a revised guideline for the import of life-size adult sex dolls. It said it reviewed recent court rulings and opinions from relevant government agencies including the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family.
The customs service said it will still ban the import of child-like sex dolls or others embodying certain people. It said other countries like the United States, Australia, and the U.K. also ban child-like sex dolls.
While the decision reflects South Korea’s slow yet gradual moves to restrict state interference in personal lives, some women’s rights and conservative organizations will likely again voice their opposition to the use of sex dolls. They say they deepen the sexual objectification of women and undermine public morals.
Carenshare Co., a South Korean company that imports sex dolls, said in a statement that it was “deplorable” for the customs service to lift the import ban after allegedly wasting taxpayers’ money for lawsuits with importers. The company said it had suffered immense losses. It said South Korea must reform other regulations that have a negative impact on the economy.

Just because they are used in people's private spaces doesn't mean they don't undermine human dignity. The perverts who use these things can still go out among human society, vote, and can broadly promote their fetishes on social media.
