Musician gamin has created “Unforgotten Song,” a music and multi-media work, to commemorate the anguish of Comfort Women, enslaved local women throughout Japanese-occupied East Asia, from 1932 to 1945.
Korean “Comfort Women” synthesizes the previous major findings about Japanese military sexual slavery and legal recommendations, and provides new findings about the issues “comfort women” faced for an English-language audience. It also examines the transnational redress movement, revealing that the Japanese government has tried to conceal the crime of sexual slavery and to resolve the women’s human rights issue with diplomacy and economic power.
