Japan is waiting for the old people to die.They say it's time-buying, but it's the other way around.So far, the Korean government has compensated the people several times after the war.Moon Jae In is the one who is trying to buy time just because the current government is fleeing.At the time of ２００５, Japanese Military Sexual Slavery was not included, but Japan said it would not recognize government-led coercion, and it goes without saying that the ２０１５ Japanese Military Sexual Slavery agreement was comprehensive.

In February ２００４, the Seoul Administrative Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff, demanding that five of the ５７ documents related to the Korea-Japan Claim Agreement be released.The trial began in September ２００２ when a group of bereaved families of Japanese victims of forced mobilization demanded that the government confirm the details of the Korea-Japan agreement.
As a result, Japan's compensation issue, which was temporarily settled after the signing of the Korea-Japan Claim Agreement in １９６５, and compensation in the １９７０s, has resurfaced.It's a kind of second round.
At that time, the government appealed on the grounds of its impact on bilateral relations.However, in August ２００４, former President Roh Moo Hyun abandoned the appeal after consulting with Cheong Wa Dae, the chief civil society office, and the National Security Council (NSC) at a meeting of senior aides.
After the release of the claim agreement in January ２００５, public opinion began that the amount of compensation paid by the government in １９７５ was very small compared to that received by Japan.From １９７５ to １９７７, the Park Chung-hee administration spent ９０ percent of its ３００ million dollars on economic development and only １０ percent on compensation.Only ８,５５２ of the estimated １.０３ million victims of forced mobilization benefited.
Accordingly, the Roh Moo Hyun government has prepared follow-up measures.At that time, former President Roh Moo-hyun and Prime Minister Lee Hae-chan set four criteria: (１) support in other ways than legal compensation, (２) support through national compromise and consultation, and (４) support in parliament.To this end, the organization organized is the Public-Private Joint Committee.It consists of ２１ people, including １０ private committee members, including Yang Samsung Law Firm Hwa-woo, Prime Minister Lee Hae-chan, and １１ government officials.
On ２６ August ２００５, the Joint Committee on Civil and Government Affairs announced the results of the following discussions.
(１) Anti-humanitarian illegal activities involving Japanese military forces such as Japanese Military Sexual Slavery, Sakhalin compatriots, and atomic bomb victims are not included in the Korea-Japan Claim Agreement.
(２) The $３００ million loan received from Japan reflects the South Korean government's claim to Japan, such as personal property rights (insurance, deposits, etc.), bonds with Japan, and funds related to the resolution of forced mobilization damage.
(３) The South Korean government is morally responsible for using a considerable amount of free money received from Japan to help victims of forced mobilization (the South Korean government calculated $３６０ million in compensation for forced mobilization out of $１.２２ billion requested from Japan in １９６１).
(４) While continuing to hold the Japanese government accountable for the issue of Japanese Military Sexual Slavery, it will continue to raise the issue through international organizations.

Who is the comfort women issue?
Kim Byeong-heon, director of the National History Textbook Research Institute, Lee Woo-yeon, research committee member of the Rakusei University Economic Research Institute, Juok-soon Mama Corps representative, Kenji Yoshida (Korean name Kim Min-suk), etc. He will visit the city of Berlin from the 25th to the 30th, meet with the ward office officials, and formally request the removal of the statue of the comfort woman girl installed in the area.
Director Kim and his colleagues formed the "Comfort Women Fraud Clearing Solidarity" last year and held a weekly confrontation rally for the Justice Federation's rally, revealing the falsehood of the comfort women issue symbolized by the image of comfort women.
Lee Woo-yeon is the co-author of "Anti-Japan Tribalism," which has become a bestseller in Japan, and Juok-soon held a demo rally in Korea
"Prime Minister Abe, our leader was helpless and ignorant and destroyed Japan-South Korea relations. I sincerely apologize," he said, denying the Korean government's response and defending the position of the Japanese government.
They are an organization that is in direct opposition to various anti-Japan movement groups, and are familiar with the history of the Japanese rule, such as Professor Yanagi of Yonsei University, who was sued for saying "comfort women are prostitutes". He will also collaborate with Lee Young-hoon of "Anti-Japan Tribalism", Professor Mark Ramseyer of Harvard Law School, and Tsutomu Nishioka, a visiting professor of Reitaku University in Japan.
Thorough demonstrations such as uncovering the lies of the comfort women in the immediate vicinity of the former comfort women's Wednesday rally, and securing applications for the same place all night before the notification of the Wednesday rally is issued to obstruct the activities of the comfort women. It's the first time.
As with the comfort women issue and the recruitment issue, Japan and South Korea have agreed to comprehensively resolve these issues through the 1965 Japan-Korea Claims Agreement. The problems that have arisen since then are not the problems of both countries, but the domestic problems of each. The Japanese way of thinking is that domestic problems should be solved domestically.
Will it really be a solution when their activities expand and the truth of history becomes clear? At least this is a problem that Koreans should solve. It is clear from the past that Japan's apology has twisted the facts and was only a temporary measure.
South Korea's UNIQLO turns into a large profit.Where did the boycott movement go?Have we forgotten the past?
FRF El Korea, which operates Uniqlo in South Korea, has announced its results for fiscal year 2021 (September 1, 2020 to August 31, 2021).
Operating profit was 52.9 billion won (approximately 5.1 billion yen), a significant turnaround from a deficit of 88.4 billion won in the previous fiscal year. The company aimed to improve profits by reorganizing existing stores, and strengthened sales at its online store in response to increased demand for online shopping due to the spread of the new coronavirus.
One industry source said in an interview, ``The year after the boycott movement, the new coronavirus broke out.Uniqlo's shift to online was a blessing in disguise.''
Even in the midst of a country-wide boycott movement, it is amazing to see a return to surplus. The reason behind this seems to be the expansion of online shopping due to the coronavirus.
Fast Retailing's CFO Ken Okazaki said that ``boycotts will not last long,'' which infuriated the Korean media, and the fierce criticism of UNIQLO became heated.
Also, in the Korean UNIQLO commercial, a 13-year-old woman asks, "How did you used to dress when you were my age?" and a 98-year-old woman asks, "How did you use to dress when you were my age?" The woman further sparked a boycott by saying, "Oh my god, I can't remember that far back." as insulting to comfort women.
The 98-year-old woman was 13 years old during the Japanese colonial era, but she thought it was an insult to forget that. Looking at the results, CFO Okazaki's prediction was correct.
If he asked the boycotters about this, would he say, "I can't remember that far back"?
FCO Okazaki seems to have a good understanding of the Korean national character of getting hot easily and getting cold easily. In addition, there seem to be many people who completely ignore self-contradiction.
Agreement Japanese Military comfort woman without the letter coercion. The two governments of Japan and South Korea do not recognize coercion.
In Japan, politics does not recognize or evaluate history.This is because politicians do not have no such authority.Historical data stored in government agencies will be accepted by Congress after confirming the facts.Starting with Yoshida's testimony, Kono's discourse was about compulsion.The biggest flaw in Kono's speech was that he was a government minister who spoke without historical information.In other words, history is recognized arbitrarily.
In 2007, the Cabinet decided that no evidence of compulsory Japanese Military comfort woman recruitment was found under the Abe administration.This means that some of the amendments were made to the Kono Statement in accordance with a Cabinet decision higher than the Kono Statement.Former Prime Minister Abe did not say that there was no forced arrest.He's just saying there was no evidence.
The 2015 Japanese Military comfort woman Agreement did not include the word coercion.This compulsory part of the Korea-Japan issue is the most important issue.In other words, Japan followed the Cabinet decision and held talks, and South Korea agreed to omit the statement because it failed to provide evidence of compulsion.An important part of the Japanese Military comfort woman agreement is that the two countries did not recognize the compulsion rather than that the issue was finally and irreversibly resolved.If enforcement cannot be confirmed, the Japanese Military comfort woman problem does not exist from the beginning.
The Japanese and South Korean governments did not approve of evidence of coercion.Japanese Military Sexual Slavery The problem itself is no longer valid.
Japanese Military comfort woman recruited through a newspaper contest. There are many questions about forced arrests from a necessity point of view.
The most questionable point is whether forced arrest of Japanese Military comfort woman was necessary.Lee Yong-soo, who is said to be a former Japanese Military comfort woman, said that the sex industry exists in modern countries and Japan, and that the balance between supply and demand seems to be balanced.In other words, the percentage of men who seek this and women who provide services as a profession.How about in Korea?It is not a situation where people should be forcibly taken away even if they omit ethical issues related to sexual morals.By the way, Japan's unemployment rate stood at 2.8 percent in September.
At that time, many people on the Korean Peninsula were too poor to find jobs, but the unemployment rate dropped dramatically due to Japanese investment, and Joseon itself was surprisingly modernized and developed.Japan was never rich during the war, but men would have to hire them first to get a job.Are there more women who need jobs financially than now?The proportion of men and women after birth or in nature is about 1:1 .It's a simple arithmetic problem.
Japanese Military comfort woman is open to the public through newspaper advertisements, as left as data from that time.And prostitution itself was legal under the laws of the time.In addition, they are paid several times as much as college-graduated men.That seems to have gathered enough people.There are many questions as to why 300,000 people were forcibly taken away.
At that time, Japanese Military comfort woman was paid a lot of money, and when I returned to Korea, I got enough money to buy a house in just about two years.
Professor Ramseyer's negative statement [There is no evidence of forced abduction of comfort women] is a complete lie. [Translated excerpt of Yonhap News article]
On January 5th, Mark Ramseyer, a professor at Harvard Law School in the United States, who defined South Korean comfort women as "prostitutes" and received international backlash, has now proven that "comfort women were forced to be recruited." It is expected that there will be a stir by asserting that there are no contemporary documents that do so.
Professor Ramseyer made this clear on the 5th in his article ``Sexual Contracts in the Pacific War: Responses to Criticism'' posted on the Harvard Law School website.
In this paper, which is a rebuttal of previous criticisms directed at her, Professor Ramseyer argues that ``Korean women were drawn into [comfort women] by the Japanese military who fought against their will, regardless of their will.'' I will respond to the allegation,'' and declared, ``This allegation is false.''
At the same time, he asserted, `` Korean women were not forced to serve as comfort stations due to planned coercion by the Japanese military.''
He specifically argued that the 1983 book ``My War Crimes'' by Japanese author and activist Seiji Yoshida was the de facto basis for the forced recruitment of comfort women.
For 35 years after the end of the war, there was no evidence (proving forced conscription). It was only in the late 1980s that some Korean women began to advocate this."
He added, ``The comfort women debate started with Yoshida's 'fraud'''' and ``Most of the experts who criticized me were from Japan and South Korea, but even though they knew about this book, no one He also didn't mention this book."
Regarding the paper in question, Professor Ramseyer said, ``The core of the paper was about the contract, such as why the comfort women received advance payment and what conditions under the contract determined the women's working hours.'' ``However, none of the criticisms leveled at me were aimed at this kind of economic analysis.''
In a paper published that day, Professor Ramseyer cited a study last year by Lee Yuken, a co-author of ``Anti-Japanese Tribalism'' and a research committee member at the University of Economics Research Institute, which received support from far-right groups in Japan.
Professor Ramseyer also claimed that comfort women victims, who remained silent for a considerable period after the war, changed their words after they began demanding reparations from Japan.
In a situation where there is no document proving forced recruitment, the only evidence, the testimonies of victims, lacks credibility..
In particular, he referred to comfort woman victim Lee Yong-soo as ``the most notorious (of all the people who changed their words)''.
[Excerpt above]
Professor Ramseyer says that no evidence of her forced abduction or her contract has been found anywhere. Similarly, the Japanese government has made a cabinet decision under the Abe administration that there is no evidence of forced recruitment.
