South Korean media like to commend Germany's of their apology and compensation for the World War II in order to accuse Japan like "See Germany still apologizes for the war crime, but Japan doesn't!" Korean media often ask Japan to express more apoligy and pay more compensation as if Korea was a victim from Japan. But it's totally a wrong idea. Why? Because Korea was a part of Japan, and fought with Japan. Korea was involved in the war, took part in what Japan did during the war. So, Korea had same responsibility as Japan. Korea should apologize instead of accusing Japan.
To understand Korea's position during WWII, it helps to compare Korea with Belguim. Belguim was also merged to Germany during WWII and faught together with, very much just like Korea during WWII. What Belguim has done after the war? Let's read the following news article.
Belgium’s PM apologizes for state’s Holocaust-era complicity - Israel News | Haaretz Daily Newspaper
Belguim apologized for what they did with Germany during WWII. See what Korea is doing now. Korea has not apologized at all. Korea has always asked Japan's apology and compensation. Even worse, they have faked stories of comfort women to exaggerate what Japan did during WWII.
