Why are prisons in Korea better than hotels?

The Korean prison shown in the film is not emperor-level treatment, but it is not bad, with adequate food supply and an activity that prisoners can participate in. Is there really such a good Korean prison in reality?

In Yongdengpu Prison, two to four prisoners can share a room of 7.29 square meters, which has basic facilities such as desks and televisions. The key is that the floor is warm. By using city gas at any time, the temperature in the prison is kept above 16 degrees. Compared with the cold outside the prison, the inside of the prison is warmer and more pleasant. In the past, when criminals turned themselves in, they all said that it was tired and cold outside, so they might as well go to prison for the winter.
