The incidence of sexually transmitted disease, especially gonorrhoea has risen despite the progress in its diagnosis and treatment. For the effective control ;programs of sexually transmitted disease, it should be required socio-medical approaches.
A study on gonorrhoea and penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) was conducted in Jeonju and Kunsan area from March, 1982 through August, 1942. The 221 entertrainers were studied in order to determine the prevalences of gonorhoea and PPNG.
Socio-demographic informations of the entertainers were obtained by interviewing them. Gonococci were cultured on Thayer-Martip_ enrichment media for isolation, and PPNG was confirmed using beta-lactamase reagent (PADACim Beta-Lactamase Test Strips, Galbiochem-Behring).
The results of the study are summarized as follows;
1. The average age of the entertainers studied was 26. 14.7 years.
2. The average years of working in entertaining business as 2. 4=1. 4 years, and the avrage income per month was 239,5920 90,480 won. On t=ie education level; 70.6561 of the eatertainers were middle or high school graduates.

4. 37(16.7%) out of 221 entertainers tivere revealed to gonorrhoea, and 13(35.1%) of gonorrhoea patients were by PPNG.
5. The prevalence rates of gonorrhoea and the proportion of PPNG by age were not significant statistically. Meanwhile, the colelations between the rates of gonorrhoea and education, frequency of love-malting with customers and type of sexual partner were highly significant statistically.
6. 37 strains of gonococci isolated were almostly resistant to several antimicrobial agents, especially amilkacin, clindamycin and chlora completely resistant to not only above drugs
