Can sighted masseurs legally work in South Korea


Can sighted masseurs legally work in South Korea ?
I know that for the past century only blind people could become licensed masseurs there.Then in 2006 they made visually handicapped people eligible for this work too and in 2008 sighted masseurs started to fight against this "monopoly".So how did it end?Can sighted masseurs now legally work in South Korea ?

I don't know who is legal and who is not, but there are thousands of masseurs here who are not blind.

I've had lots of massages from lots of different people and none have been blind so far so I'm going to say yes, sighted masseurs can definitely work legally in South Korea.
