Koreans never seem to stop lambasting the Japanese over the so-called Korean comfort women. As usual their voices are very loud and persisting. It's so annoying and ridiculous that we Japanese are sincerely hoping to move far alway from the Korean peninsula riding on the Japanese archipelago. What makes our feeling even worse is the fact that their blames over the "comfort women" are made up of patent lies.
When talking about the so-called comfort women, Koreans always hide up some plain fact: many Korean volunteer soldiers and civilian employees, as well as no less than 9 high rank military officers, were serving in the Imperial Japanese Army at the time.
Towards the end of WWII, there were a total of 242,341 Koreans serving the IJA - 116,294 volunteer soldiers and 126,047 civilian employees (Ministry of Welfare of Japan). As far as I know, 6 Korean lieutenant generals and 3 major generals were also in the IJA.
Before the recruitment of Korean volunteer soldiers started in 1938, colonel Kim Seok-Won (金 錫源), who had graduated from the military academy in Japan, commanded his all-Japanese unit in China front and achieved amazing war results. The Korean volunteer soldiers were motivated by those brilliant war achievements of Korean army officers.
I think it's ridiculous to believe that the IJA promoted Korean male officers to generals while forcing their fellow Korean girls into sexual slavery. It'd be even more ridiculous to believe that the Korean military men were the clients of Korean sex slaves.
I believe that the IJA would never have recruited young Korean men for soldiers in the first place if they really had forced Korean girls into sexual slavery.
Besides the presence of Korean soldiers in the IJA, there are also some other side proofs:
For instance, no evidences have come up that support the ex-comfort women's testimonies. We have never heard or read about Koreans who claim their female family members were tricked or kidnapped into sexual slavery by the IJA. Why have no family members of ex-comfort women ever come out and raised their voices of protest?
The so-called Korean "comfort women" are just a myth. I can't believe many people still believe this far-fetched story. The biggest surprise is how Koreans dare to go on spreading this patent lie all over the world knowing very well that it's a patent lie. They even built a statue of Korean comfort girl in front of the Japanese embassy in Korea and a couple of monuments in the U.S. Why don't they put one right in front of a Korean massage parlor in Texas?
It's time for Koreans to stop telling patent lies. Or is that the last straw they can never let off?
