[무한 도박의 덫] "콤프 삽니다!" 카지노를 못 떠나게 하는 '마일리지 함정'! 현금처럼 팔리는 '콤프깡' 불법 실태 추적! | KBS 20131220 방송

※ This video was produced in 2013 and may differ from current information. ▶ The Identity of the Comp System Meaning: Comp is an abbreviation for "complimentary." It's a type of mileage that Kangwon Land Casino accrues on its membership cards based on the amount and time spent playing. Usage: Originally intended to revitalize the local economy, it was introduced so that casino guests could spend it like cash on local stores, lodging, and food. ▶ The Temptation to Fuel Gambling Addiction Once comps are accumulated, customers perceive them as free money, creating a tempting cycle that drives them to continue gambling indefinitely, either to recoup losses or to accumulate more comps. The program likely highlighted the tragic reality of gambling addicts who are unable to leave the casino because of comps. ▶ The Reality of Illegal Cash Transactions: Money changers (aka "comp-gangs") operate clandestinely around casinos and in smoking rooms. Transaction Method: This illegal practice is widespread, with customers pretending to have used comps and receiving a portion of the cash from the merchant or affiliated store, with the merchant taking the remainder as a commission. Distortion of the Local Economy: Local residents criticize these comp-gangs for promoting illegal transactions, contrary to their original purpose of revitalizing the local economy. ※ This video is from [Interview File K - "Comps" That Tempt Unlimited Gambling], which aired on December 20, 2013. #Gambling #Comps #Mileage This is the official KBS documentary channel.
