We can no longer in good conscience invite tourists to visit Koreatown LA.

Crimes have been committed by thugs with badges against innocent law-abiding people who are seen as easy prey by these evildoers with government-issued guns. The most egregious example is the treatment of Koreatown visitor Kim Nguyen at the hands of LAPD officers David E. Shin (신은총) and Jinseok Oh (오진석) in the early morning hours of March 17, 2013.

After a night out in Koreatown, Nguyen and two male friends were waiting in a restaurant parking-lot on 6th Street for a designated driver to pick them up. Officers Shin and Oh drove by in a marked patrol car, stopped, and approached Nguyen.



After briefly questioning Nguyen and her friends, the officers left, but circled back, as Nguyen was running across the street toward a late-night cafe between Oxford and Serrano Avenues.

She was then arrested for public intoxication, with the officers refusing to tell her friends where exactly she was being taken. Her friends were told they would need to call the police department to locate her.

On their way to taking her to jail, right after the patrol car passed through Olympic & Grand in downtown, Nguyen allegedly jumped or fell out.

What you see in the screenshot is her on the street… The bruises on her face, the broken bra strap, and the pulled-down top of her dress were supposedly because of the fall.

Miss Nguyen is an upstanding MBA candidate at Loyola Marymount University who was out enjoying herself in Koreatown with equally law-abiding friends. That she was picked out and arrested for “public intoxication” while drunk men by the hundreds, even thousands, are left untouched every night, is a flagrant display of sexual predation by LAPD thugs in Koreatown.

The physical injuries she suffered in that incident are horrendous. Her jaw was shattered in three places. Most of her front teeth were knocked out. She had to be put in a medically induced coma because of bleeding in her brain. When she awoke six days later, she found bruises on the inside of her thighs.

Since 2010, we have overlooked crime after crime committed by these LAPD thugs in Koreatown. That year, they shot Steven Washington to death for no reason whatsoever while he was merely out walking on Vermont Avenue. In 2011, they started working with a convicted felon operating out of Venice to declare a PR war on the Latino and Asian residents of Koreatown for alleged petty crimes, even as they party with big-time embezzlers of millions of tax dollars in Wilshire Center.

There are other countless untold stories of the crimes committed by these thugs under the color of authority. The incident involving Kim Nguyen is the last straw.

NO MORE. We cannot put the lives of tourists in danger. We cannot have another Kim Nguyen. We cannot invite women to Koreatown and put them at risk of being treated the way Kim Nguyen was treated.

We ask you to not visit Koreatown anymore. Go to Beverly Hills, which has another police force. Go to Disneyland. Go to San Diego. Go to San Francisco. Don’t come to Koreatown. Because we cannot guarantee that what happened to Kim Nguyen will not happen to you.

Koreatown is NOT safe for tourists.
