Comfort Woman in Korea

Add to Cart Add to Lightbox Download

A photo of a woman who was forced to work as a "comfort woman" hangs in the War & Women's Human Rights Museum in Seoul, South Korea. She and thousands of other women were forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese military during World War II. The quotation is a reference to Japan's refusal to pay compensation to the women, claiming there is no solid evidence of their mistreatment.
