VIENTIANE,
Laos - For more than two years, Lee Jin-hui, 20, was never allowed to leave
a three-room apartment in northeast China. Seven days a week, she had to sit
at a computer from noon to 5 a.m., performing sex acts before a webcam for male
clients, mostly from South Korea.

In the apartment,
Ms. Lee and other North Korean women each had to earn about $820 a week for
the Chinese pimp who bought them from human traffickers. When they failed, they
were slapped, kicked and denied food.

Each year, human
smugglers take thousands of women seeking to flee North Korea, promising them
jobs in China, according to human rights groups and trafficking survivors. But
once in China, many of the women are sold to unmarried men in rural towns or to pimps for exploitation in brothels and cybersex dens.

If they are
caught running away from traffickers, China sends them back to North Korea,
where they face torture
and incarceration in labor camps. With nowhere
to turn for help in China, they remain trapped in sex slavery.

An estimated
60 percent of female North Korean refugees in China are trafficked into the
sex trade, and increasingly coerced into cybersex, the London-based rights group
Korea Future Initiative said in a
report in May.

¡°Girls aged
as young as 9 are forced to perform graphic sex acts and are sexually assaulted

of whom are believed to be South Korean men,¡± the report said.

When she was
smuggled out of North Korea in spring 2017, Ms. Lee was told she would be waitressing
in China. When she arrived, her boss said her job was ¡°chatting¡±
at the computer. Until then, she had never seen
