Korea must apologize

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.

What do you think?

Endangered Japan (Book 2): Sex, Lies, and Comfort Women

If you are a citizen of US and happened to see any Korean political advertisement about "comfort women", then turned out to consider as old Japanese people as such cruel people, watch this video before blaming Japan. At least you have to understand what was really happening first. Since letters in the video are small, I recommend you to visit YouTube and watch it in large size.



The following text is cite from this video around 16:23.

It was not only Japan which introduced the same system. The South Korean Army and US Forces introduced the same system during the Korean War and the Vietnam War. Sex-trafficked women can be seen in prostitution establishment for the U.S. troops in South korea still now. Accusing others of some problems when they have the same problem is called "hypocrisy" normally.

Yes, I agree with this statement. If you are a Korean citizen or US citizen and you think "comfort women" system is inhumane, please blame the government in your country first.

By the way, army of China, German and ex-Soviet had the same system as "comfort women" too. In my personal opinion, they were the same system but some of them seemed much worse than Japanese one in humanistic point of view. None of these countries compensate comfort women later. (While you may be surprised, but Japan did.)

Story of Japanese refugees raped in Korea

While Korean people blame Japan as if Koreans didn't do anything wrong in the past, however, reality was not just what they say. You can find what they had done to Japanese people in the following Youtube video.



Feel sad? No matter how much Koreans cry out against Japan, it's not possible to sweep the whole thing under the carpet. We will never forget!
