A video of a Thai transgender woman suffering a beating on the streets of Korea has gone viral. The Thai transgender woman named Kittikhun Sangtubtim was living in South Korea to study Korean. She recently wrote on her personal Facebook page warning fellow Thai women to be "very careful when traveling in Korea."
The incident which led Sangtubtim to write this post on Facebook occurred this past February 29. Sangtubtim was standing outside a restaurant with her friend when allegedly, a drunk Korean man staggered toward her and tried to make moves on her by repeatedly telling her, "I love you." Sangtubtim firmly refused the man's advances, informing him that she has a boyfriend and that she was not interested.

Sangtubtim wrote on her Facebook, "He thought I was a woman. He was really annoying. We started to insult each other."
Then the man allegedly started beating Sangtubtim. When you watch the video that was captured by a passerby, you see Sangtubtim sprawled on the floor and shrieking, "Mom!" over and over. Sangtubtim's friend jumped into the scuffle and started hitting the man, and another Korean man is seen trying to break off the fight. The person who is recording the scene can be overheard cursing "F*ck" repeatedly and explaining what happened to the other onlookers.
That same night, Sangtubtim, her friend, and the Korean man who had beat Sangtubtim were all taken to the police station. Sangtubtim added, "When the man learned that I was a transgender woman, he laughed."
The disabused Sangtubtim then concluded with, "The kind of Korean men you see on dramas don't exist. I really liked this country but now I feel afraid and paranoid. I want to warn the women who will be traveling without boyfriends. It's really dangerous."
