a type of forced labor called comfort woman for the officers at the front

It became the problem by the remark of the Japanese politician, but were they really abducted?

Recruitment of charity dames advertisement at the time of World War II

According to this image, their then monthly income is approximately ¥900, 000 (About $9500)
But, they say that they get nothing

Remark of a taken person

1992 I got red dress and leather shoes from the man of an army cap and the Korean men's national uniform during World War II
Because I was glad, I followed it immediately

December, 2000 I was deceived by a Japanese

June 26, 2002 A bayonet was thrust I was taken at the age of 14 years old

December 4, 2004 I was taken to the man who wore the clothes such as the military uniform 

August 3, 2005 I was threatened with a rifle by the man who wore the clothes such as the military uniform and was taken

February 22, 2007 A neck was caught by a Japanese soldier and was dragged out of a house at the age of 14 years old

March 2, 2007 a soldier and a woman entered the family at late-night 2:00 or 3:00  
A sword was thrust, and the tongue was blocked up, and I was taken out from the home
I was made to take a train in a soldier who caught three women

March 6, 2007 The Japanese soldier blocked up my tongue and could not call mother and dragged it out of a house

This is quotation from an article announced formally
Their remark is considerably suspicious

Korea abandons all the rights of the request to Japan in a Japan-Korea treaty
In the case of a Japan-Korea treaty, Japan does compensation of 800 million dollars to Korea(When it is current value, it is approximately 6, 400 million dollars)
Japan added it and paid 670 billion yen under the pretense of money of economic cooperation of various form
Does everybody think that the compensation does not terminate in this either?

Then how about Korea?

Traditional culture 「舞妓」"maiko"


I introduce "Maiko" today
Because the "Maiko" does not have a successor, the number of people decreases year by year and follows a course of the decline now
The "Maiko" is culture born now in Kyoto in the Edo era 300 years ago
Originally the person who waited on table came to show a song and Classical Japanese dance mimicking Kabuki.
The maiko plays an active part in a severe rule now in Gion of Kyoto
In the old days, they began training at 9 years old - 12 years old
They make a maiko only after junior high school graduation now
Anyone can experience a maiko now
Experience it at the time of trip to Kyoto by all means
However, there is much manner violation recently
Don't disturb her. She is at work right now

Then, please watch the photograph of the "Maiko" last
