The word "travel" in the context of Western culture originally highly overlapped with the semantics of "travel" and "travial". People in the literature industry, the most familiar proper nouns and definitions.

Benefiting from the globalization of tourism and tourism for more than 100 years, people's understanding of travel has little of the above-mentioned semantic context, but when there is a departure, there is a return. The connection of two points is regarded as constituting the essence of travel. The basic element is called "circular structure" by some scholars.

However, trips that "may have no return" have recently become a topic of concern in Taiwan's public and news reports. In the name of high-paying jobs or tourism at home and abroad, with free accommodation and transportation, packaged into sugar-coated traps, to lure Chinese people to Thailand and Cambodia and other countries, fall into the dark web of human trafficking groups, and be forced to accept various labor exploitation, such as telecommunication fraud , sex work, and even organs are undervalued.


First exclude those victims who were rescued by the government or gang forces and who were recently rescued and returned to Taiwan. There are a lot of victims who knew it and died. Catch the ride of current events, starting from several film and television works, to understand which link went wrong, making people embark on a dangerous journey that has a departure but is difficult to return?

In the plot of the old-fashioned morning Japanese drama "Ashin", Ashin ends his work in Kagaya and returns to his hometown. The human intermediary in the village immediately comes to introduce him to a job at a restaurant in Yamagata City, boasting a high salary and easy work, only food delivery , pour wine, will also provide dressing, the guests will give generous tips. If her sister hadn't reminded Ashin that the intermediary was actually abducting the girl to sell herself in the city, Ashin might have fallen into a fire pit because her father, the head of the family, had agreed to work for her.

At least Ashin can still meet noble people and turn the wheel of fate in his favor, other children are not so lucky. In 2008, the movie "Children in the Darkness" starring Yosuke Eguchi and Aoi Miyazaki (dark の son for た ち), in the play, nakedly presented the children in the remote villages of Thailand who were betrayed by poor native families, sat in vans, and were sent to In the city's illegal prostitutes, in the cages where they cannot move freely, waiting to be named as commodities for sexual exploitation and living organ transplants.

Because the family is financially distressed and desperate, sometimes relatives and friends may help push it.

A rookie traveler who has just arrived in a foreign country, encounters a friendly and seemingly harmless stranger who strikes up a conversation, invites to share a ride or runs a party, and reveals too much whereabouts due to lack of precautions, but he does not know that the other party is actually a member of a criminal group, who chooses specific targets to start. In the blockbuster movie "Rescue Now" starring Lien Nison as "The Strongest Dad on the Surface", a rich girl who grew up in a greenhouse neglected to take precautions during her journey, allowing the human trafficking organization to easily kidnap people and grow up. Go, if it wasn't for the rescue of the former Secret Service father, it might really have become a trip with no return.

Traveling abroad, dealing with people and things, if you build a defense line, it is difficult to appreciate the most beautiful scenery during the journey, and it is the mutual support between travelers; and if you cannot understand whether it is a sheep or a wolf under the skin, accept the invitation but neglect precautions, and also give Given the opportunity for criminal groups, how much trust and how much suspicion should I carry on the journey? It is always a difficult task for travelers.

"Xiao greed" is a human weakness that does not discriminate between nationalities and national borders. For example, in news reports, people have unrealistic imaginations about overseas work, or backpackers who are overwhelmed by seeking special excitement on the road are recruited by people with intentions. , become the lamb to be slaughtered automatically, and fall into a doomed situation. The movie "Hostel" describes three backpackers traveling in Europe who were blinded by the multi-P photos shown by their roommates in the youth hostel. In pursuit of more exciting sex games, they took the railway to the remote village of Slovakia. The Bliss (ㄎㄨㄥˇㄅㄨˋ) hostel for fun.

In the railway carriage, the strange uncles and passengers encountered by chance are also the dark piles of criminal groups. The keywords conveyed vividly and vividly make backpackers yearn for it. Who knows that after the exciting sex party, horror will be ushered in. Bloody torture, lingering and fleeing, most of them became travelers on their feet. In this regard, Barbie Q, and a few who were alert and survived, left an indelible psychological shadow area.


Human trafficking is the oldest in human history, and it is still one of the ongoing sins. This is also a common theme or plot in film and television works. It is difficult for the author to count down the film list. All of them are included in the article, and the plot in the book is analyzed in detail to guide readers on the way of self-protection during the journey. Because of the possibility of becoming a fat sheep, it is definitely overkill to limit the vision or dream of "the world is so big, I want to see it". In the contemporary era when travel has become a common daily activity for most people, it is really hard to say whether the abduction and trafficking in the movie will happen on their own journeys.

Is there any other way to cope? My suggestion is that in your travel plan, you should do the worst filing strategy. If you become the target of people with intentions, you may be able to help yourself. But please don't write these strategies as teaching articles and share them on the Internet. Who knows if the criminal group will see it and use it to renovate their tricks of abducting goods?

You tell me, I won't tell anyone else.
