쎅스.net - it's a typo of "sex"

Real term is 섹스. Very subtle difference. The first component of the first syllable is ㅆ instead of ㅅ. I believe the difference in typing this in is just 'Shift + ㅅ' to get ㅆ.

Google trends will tell you the story. KR Ovt brings up results for 섹스 when searching 쎅스.

You found the trick fabfive!

For moments I tought I was the luckiest bastard on the world, and had nailed SEX.COM Korean, but no, it's a typo, but one hell of a typo. 섹스 and 쎅스.

4.091.509 OVT Korean results. A proof you can't trust OVT.
