FOUR South Korean nationals, who were found working in Shenzhen without the requisite permits, have been ordered to leave China. Their employers have been fined 41,600 yuan (US$5,403), police say Tuesday (May 22).

However, police refuse to release any details like the names of the Koreans and when they would be leaving China.

The two were performing plastic surgery at a cosmetic clinic in an office building in the Huaqiangbei area.

Futian police found the two men working without permits in April, during a visit to companies in the district which employed foreigners.

While investigating the clinic, the police also found another company illegally hiring cosmetic surgeons from South Korea. That company, run by a Korean man, employed two Korean nationals who did not possess work permits.
