A 34-Year vigil to demand justice for 'comfort women'

The Wednesday Demonstration is a weekly protest held in Seoul, capital of the Republic of Korea, to demand Japan apologizes for its military's use of sexual slaves during World War II. Crowds have amassed across from the city's Statue of Peace without fail for 34 years. Since the issue of "comfort women" was first raised, the Japanese government has refused to accept responsibility. In 1991, Kim Hak-sun stepped forward to become the first "comfort woman" to provide public testimony in the ROK. The demonstration, which began the following year, today attracts people from all walks of life, all age groups, as well as supporters from Korea and beyond. 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA
