Ms Willerton said: "They put us in a hotel with no beds, they often didn't feed us.

"I started complaining straight away, but they would always reply with 'you won't win the contest if you complain'.

"Then it moved onto bribery, sexual harassment. Girls were offered places in the competition in exchange for sex, in exchange for money, it was completely corrupt."

She said after being sexually harassed she and several others informed police.

"When the police arrived they called in one of the chairmen of the pageant who actually got his wallet out straight away and we were all pushed back by the organisers so we couldn't speak.

"Our translator would not translate for us, so we were completely helpless."

Ms Willerton said she managed to arrange flights home but had not been reimbursed for the cost of the original flights which she was promised when she agreed to take part.

She said she was considering taking legal action against the organisers of the event.

The BBC contacted Mr Choi about Ms Willerton's allegations but has not received a response.

In his email to competitors Mr Choi said the committees in charge of booking the hotels and transport "did not keep the agreement".

He said: "In conclusion, it's fully my mistake and fault, I had only vision but forget reality. I am terribly sorry what happened here in Korea."
