In 1988, Yoon Jung-ok, Kim Hye-won, and Kim Shin-sil. They traveled to Japan to search for victims of the Japanese military's "comfort women" who were forced to work. They traveled all over the country, but the victims they found were closed and unwilling to talk to them. With the need for testimonies from the victims, the first one finally came forward. It was Grandma Kim Hak-soon

Any content about the comfort women always leaves me so heartbroken. It's the pinnacle of the cruelty of humans

I've watched many documentaries and KZfaq videos concerning this abuse, it's disgusting. But what is more disgusting is how people are constantly trying to sweep it under the carpet. There is nothing worse than someone being abused, and everyone is telling them to keep their mouths shut...or they'll be branded as a liar. Bless those women 🙏🏻 🦋💙🌹

If you're human, we can feel what they went through is real. If everything needs proof, we know it's sensitive because it's between two countries . All I want to say is Never belittle any person or the pain they went through. We all are human after all. It's ok if you don't believe, but shouldn't say they're fake unless you were there in their shoes.

I am a 31 year old American who has spent time in Korea as a child. This is the very first time I am learning of this absolute horror, against children, women, humanity. Human men really are the very worst, I don't know why the world is just okay with rape, it just keeps happening over and over and over. Earth must be purgatory or hell, and death heavenly, either that or I hope the afterlife is just nothingness for everyone forever.

I first learned of it on you tube whem i saw a short for a movie called Snowy Road, a 2015 korean film i was able to watch for free on plex. Highly recommend that one. Then i learned of the nanjing massacre. There was a movie on that on youtube that i found that also showed comfort women. Then, even when learning more about the vietnam war i learned of comfort women being used by both the US and the Korean military. Its a very dark rabbit hole to start going down.

Did you learn bullshit history in South Korea? In reality, many of the managers of Japanese military comfort stations were Koreans, and it was mainly Koreans who collected comfort women, both legally and illegally, on the peninsula. ――― There's plenty of evidence. The ``Diary of a Japanese Military Comfort Station Manager,'' which was discovered by chance at a used bookstore, has been hailed as an important and highly reliable contemporary historical document regarding the structure of Japan's comfort women system. The author of the diary has been identified only by his surname Park. Park's brother-in-law recruited Korean comfort women and sent them overseas to provide sexual services to Japanese soldiers. Partly for economic reasons, Park decided to go to Japanese-occupied Southeast Asia with his brother-in-law in 1942 and run a comfort station, where he remained until 1944. After Park's death, part of his diary was discovered in a used bookstore. It is known that Park arrived in Burma (present-day Myanmar) on August 20, 1942, and operated a comfort station called Kanpachi Club in present-day Sittwe until January 16, 1943. He then ran a comfort station called ``Ichifujiro'' in Insein, Rangoon (now Yangon) from May 1, 1943 to September 9, 1943. According to diaries, comfort women took time off from work when they became pregnant, underwent regular STD tests, and received high-quality medical care. Comfort women were paid for their work, and many had personal savings accounts for their salaries. One of Park's tasks was to comply with the comfort women's requests by depositing their earnings with the Yokohama Specie Bank and remitting their wages to South Korea. The diary notes that many Japanese military comfort stations in Burma and Singapore were run by Koreans, but some were also run by Japanese or locals. Park also notes that many of his fellow Korean comfort station operators had various investments in various parts of Asia, including coffee shops, factories, and confectionery shops in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand.

What hurts the most is, that people these days don't believe those women who were victims. Like they didn't thought about recording everything they go through at the moment and stuff. People should really think first, before they say that comfort women victims are liars. I say they ain't liars, why though? They lived with no money, so why should they later on want money? I feel so sorry for these women. They deserved a better life but most of them already died in the 90s 😭😭

Every country has crimes that uniquely reflect its society. Kim Seung-gyu, the next director of the National Intelligence Service, said in a speech at the end of May during his time as justice minister, ``Our country's four major crimes are prostitution perjury, defamation, and fraud.'' Without considering population ratios, we can see that in 2003, South Korea had 16 times as many perjury cases as Japan, 39 times as many defamation cases, and 26 times as many fraud cases. Considering that Japan's population is three times that of our own, this number is abnormally high. The common denominator of the four crimes is lying; in short, we live in a country of liars. The prosecution devotes 70 percent of its work to handling the four crimes, the former justice minister said. And because suspects lie so much, the indictment rate in fraud cases is 19.5 percent, in perjury 29 percent and in libel 43.1 percent. "Internationally, too, there is a perception that South Korea's representative crime is fraud," Kim said, adding that recent major scandals show how rampant lying is in this country. The prosecution is not free from responsibility, since there is a sense in which its ingrained attitude in dealing with suspects for libel, fraud and perjury has contributed to making the crimes the scourge they have become. Lying is so common in our society because few recognize that it leads to crime. "What's wrong with telling a little lie?" they think. And here the big problem is that men of power, rather than ordinary citizens, indulge in lying on a massive scale, to the point where it is regarded as a necessary means of survival in some circles.

Lying is so common in our society because few recognize that it leads to crime. "What's wrong with telling a little lie?" they think. And here the big problem is that men of power, rather than ordinary citizens, indulge in lying on a massive scale, to the point where it is regarded as a necessary means of survival in some circles. A recent example that hurt us all is the lies of Kim Dae-yeop, finally punished by a court for fabricating a charge against the opposition presidential candidate in the 2002 elections. That lie determined the fate of a government. When the opposition party demanded an apology, he laughed in their face by sending apples -- phonetically, both apples and apology are "sagwa." More staggering lies were told by the president's associates in the KORAIL "Oilgate" scandal. Deft alterations of wording by an influential lawmaker close to the chief executive and sudden failures of memory and brazen denials by others have all turned out to be false. Nonetheless, they managed to slip the clutches of the law, as if to show us that they can. We can well imagine why the ex-justice minister made his complaint. Such behavior generally has its roots in the arrogance and egotism of those who feel that what they do is always right and anything that gets in the way is wrong. It also springs from a perception that the best strategy is to reject anything that does not fit in with your beliefs -- for example by thinking that you don't have to abide by laws you have decided are "evil." We can glimpse in the way our presidents wield their enormous power a sense that it is all right on occasion for you to distort a situation or slander others short of outright lying if that is what it takes to achieve your aims. Nor can it be denied that our cultural climate has justified the perception that if you manage to get out of a tight spot by lying first, you will be able to overcome the whole matter one way or the other. In Western European countries, the life of a politician or bureaucrat comes to an end when their lies are revealed. Mistakes they forgive; lies never. The lies of leaders and men of power are subject to punishment tens and hundreds of times heavier than that given ordinary people, and to call someone a liar is the ultimate insult. In Japan, children are taught from infancy that honesty and frankness are the highest personal values. We, too, need nationwide education to foster a public perception that lying is a crime that degrades human nature and causes a plethora of social evils. We must thoroughly punish slander and deception of others. Our leadership and the entire country have much to learn from the mother in Gwangju who early in June sent her son back to police after false testimony got him off an assault charge, with a request that he be taught some honesty.
