A long time ago, a group of women embarked on a journey to a new land on a selfless quest for a better life, for themselves and their families. Forced to become women of the night, they were the karayuki-san — women who came south. Inspired by “Ah Ku and the Karayuki-san: Prostitution in Singapore 1870 – 1940” by Dr. James Francis Warren.
