SEOUL, Sept. 10 (Korea Bizwire) — Air Seoul Co., a South Korean low-cost carrier, said Monday it has designated one restroom on each of its routes as female-only to meet demand from women travelers.
“Our business data shows six out of 10 passengers are women, and the company has responded to requests for women-only toilets in airplanes,” a company spokeswoman said by phone.
One of four restrooms on each of Air Seoul’s seven passenger jets has been designated as female-only, she said.
Air Seoul, a budget carrier unit of Asiana Airlines Inc., serves 17 international routes — 12 to Japan, four to Southeast Asia and one to Guam — and flies six 195-seat A321 jets and one 220-seat A321 jet, the company said.
Korean Air Lines Co. and Asiana Airlines, the country’s two full-service carriers, do not offer such women’s restroom services.

Not sure if this is a direct copy from Yonhap or your own words, BUT the last part is not true. Korean Air does have women’s only restrooms….but of course no one stands there and polices it….luckily, they always clean all restrooms well.
Hi, Some of news here are in reprinting version of Yonhap under the contract with the news agency. Thanks.
