Two foreign women who raced through the streets of Sinchon naked were booked without detention and banned from leaving the country under charges of public display of obscenity, according to police on Monday.

One of the women is from Australia while the other is from the U.S. They are both 21.
They had stripped and ran through the popular district on the night of July 7 as a drunken prank.
The Seoul Seodaemun-gu Police identified the women as one-month summer school exchange students enrolled in a university in Sinchon.
The police passed the case to prosecutors for an opinion on indictment, and banned them from leaving the country. They were reportedly supposed to fly home soon.
Thirteen international students were involved in the prank.
A 22-year-old Australian student who took videos of the women carrying out the joke was slapped with a 50,000-won ($44) fine for violation of the Minor Offenses Act.
