Description

Voices of the Korean Comfort Women: History Rewritten from Memories provides a profound look into a dark period of the Pacific War. This Routledge publication explores the lived experiences of young women, including teenagers, who were taken from Korea to provide sexual services to Japanese soldiers across occupied territories. From Northern China to Myanmar and the South Pacific Islands, these women faced immense hardship on vastly expanded battlefronts. This book documents the difficult journeys of these individuals, many of whom died, were killed, or were abandoned during and after the war. For the small percentage who returned home, the struggle continued as they faced the devastation of post-war life and lasting social stigma. This work serves as a vital historical record, bringing the voices of these women to light and offering a necessary perspective on their survival and the social impact of their experiences.
