Each year in South Korea, thousands of women are thought to fall victim to so-called "spy cam porn", which sees them recorded by secret cameras hidden in cubicles and changing rooms.

Officials in the capital of Seoul have finally announced plans for daily checks on public toilets after a wave of protests urging government intervention, but many remain too paranoid to even use them.

Writing for Sky News, Seoul student Hyebin Ahn explains the everyday fears she has of invasive images of her finding their way online.

Living your everyday life in fear for being watched is something you would not imagine in a free country.

But sadly I have learned to be cautious and almost paranoid in every public place, not to mention toilets. I normally never go to public bathrooms - and if I have to, I cover my face while using it.

I'm 22, and I wasn't really aware of the issue until I was 18 or 19. I knew that there were lots of creeps out there, but I didn't think I could be filmed by a hidden camera and nor had anyone warned me about it.

Spy camera crimes have been going on for at least a decade, but they have never been discussed publicly until two years ago or so.

There were lots of holes in public bathrooms and women were always used to them, but we recently realised that the holes did not exist in men's rooms. That really gave me a shock and made me paranoid.

Although I do not have personal experience of these crimes - or should I say I do not really know if I have ever been filmed - I do know people who have encountered men with cameras in public bathrooms, in trains, and other places.

I know of one girl, who lived in her university dorm, and while she was sleeping she woke up to a weird sound. Turns out one of the boys had sneaked in and was setting up a camera.

And another friend - she went to a public toilet in the subway station after heavy drinking. She bent down to throw up, and saw a guy with camera from a small gap under the stall. She sued him.

Those two stories are the most horrifying to me.

I have also seen a lot on the internet. There are hundreds of thousands of pictures being shared and I'm too scared to check if my picture is among them, so I just became paranoid.

I think it's good they are finally doing something in Seoul, but for sure, more needs to be done. There are so many blogs or Twitter or Tumblr accounts sharing illegal pictures, and they never get caught.

Even when victims reach out to police, they usually say it's not possible to find out who's really responsible.

If the pervert gets caught in action, they usually get away with some fine or probation. But as you can imagine, the videos or pictures last forever on the internet, and some of the victims even commit suicide.

I think police should investigate thoroughly, and put more weight into sentencing. Punish not only the ones who set up the cameras, but those who share and download the pictures as well.
