The following is from 'anti-Japanese tribalism,' which asked a friend who is one of Japan's leading readers to purchase.
The myth of 'forced mobilization.'
The departure of historical distortion
The contents to be described now relate to over 730,000 Korean workers who worked across Japan during the war for about six years from the end of the colony, from September 1939 to August 15, 1945.
In academia, this is called 'labor mobilization.'
Korean researchers argue that most of the mobilized Koreans were forcibly taken or 'forced mobilization' by the Japanese government.
They also claim that it was overworked like a slave in Japan, that is, 'slave labor.'
'Military policemen and police officers come where Koreans are sleeping at night or where Koreans are working in the field, Koreans were taken to Japan and were forced to work to the extent that they were killed, abused like animals, and returned home without any money.', it is an assertion.
In 1965, Pak Kyŏng-sik (note 14), a Chongryon affiliated Korean university teacher in Japan, made such a statement for the first time.
'The Japanese Emperor cruelly exploited the Koreans,' he instigated.
It was to stop the normalization of Korea-Japan diplomatic relations at that time.
It is because North Korea is besieged when diplomatic relations between the two countries are normalized.
Such an assertion is called a compulsory entrainment theory.
The title of Pak Kyŏng-sik's book is 'Record of Korean Enforcement.'
This claim, which began there, remains the most potent academic standard view to date.
It has had a profound impact on all Korean government agencies, schools and other educational institutions, the speech community, and the cultural community. It has come to take root as a common sense of our people.
But this is an obvious historical distortion.
The historical distortion of 'forced mobilization' played a significant role in creating anti-Japanese tribalism.
Anti-Japanese tribalism also made this historical distortion more serious and diffused widely.
