The Supreme Court has lifted a ban on the import of life-size sex dolls into Korea.

The court said last week that it recently upheld a lower court decision to allow the import of such dolls, ordering Incheon Main Customs to permit a Korean company to import them.

The ruling, which opens the door to sex doll manufacturers in other countries, is expected to reverberate through the adult toys market here.

In 2017, Customs confiscated a silicone sex doll, which is 159cm tall and weighs 35kg, on legal grounds that ban the import of "morally degrading products." Later, the company took the issue to the court.

A district court in Seoul ruled in favor of Customs, saying such dolls would "degrade human beings' dignity."

But the appeals court overturned the decision, saying state intervention must be minimized in such private matters.

Note: A sex doll is a type of sex toy in the size and shape of a sexual partner for aid in masturbation.
