Am I missing something, or can't you just put a router block against their
network, 203.233.150/23 ? I realize this won't blow them off the net, but
it'll make your web server usable again.
Based on experience trying to get Korean spam relays closed, I would say
there's about a 99.5% chance that this is due to administrative ineptitude
and 0.5% that it's malice. In Korea even more than Japan I find extreme
unwillingness to receive outside trouble reports, often compounded by the
fact that I don't speak Korean or Japanese, and they don't read English
well enough to understand a report in the first place.
