A Korean nail salon worker is a nail technician, manicurist, esthetician, or masseuse working in a Korean-owned nail salon in America.

Most Korean-owned nail salons are located in New York, and in reaction to a 2015 New York Times exposé documenting corruption within the state's nail salon industry, Gov. Andrew Cuomo created the New York State Nail Indu
