Picture of the Day: Comfort Woman Protest in Seoul
Protestors from an anti-Japan civic group, the Korean Council for Justice and Remembrance for the Issues of Military Sexual Slavery by Japan, stage a Wednesday rally in front of the Japanese Embassy in Seoul on Nov. 9, 2022, to demand Japan offer a formal apology for “comfort women,” who were forced into its wartime military brothels during World War II, and urge the government to stop what critics say is low-profile diplomacy toward the neighboring country.

If the Yoon administration can get the double whammy with Dokdo ownership protests, everyone will forget about Itaewon.
Or we can go for the teifecta and include American rice import demonstrations as well.
Teenagers can get crushed every week and nobody would notice.
So they want Japan to apologize *again*. An apology which they once again will not accept, and the cycle will continue.
“Statements that the Japanese government has made on the issue of the enslavement of women in military brothels during World War II.”

All these protests do is weaken South Korea against attacks from North Korea and China.
Which is why they’re organized.
A smart South Korean National Police commander would arrange helicopter rides for the spokespeople for the protestors.
