As far as I know, in the United States, certainly here on the eastern seaboard and especially in the NY-Tristate area, these sprawling prostitution rings (networks really) are headed and operated by Chinese and Korean racketeers.

Maybe on the west coast in California and nearby states some Japanese Yakuza are involved too (no doubt,) but the Chinese and Korean have become very prominent in this racket.
