- Abstract
- This paper aims to falsify the Japanese Government's argument that Japan
has already completed the compensation of the damage on the side of Korea
during the Pacific War, by showing that the Korea-Japan agreement on the
damage claims in 1965 does not conform to the international customs, and did
not fully take the victims into consideration. Henceforth, this paper argues that
the Korean Government must claim the newly identified damage against Japan
by resuming the negotiation. Specificallyl things to be discussed in this paper
include the following: First, we briefly review the present situation of the
damage compensation, especially for the Sakhalin residents, the A-bomb victims,
the women in 'Cengsindae,' and the Korean residents in Japan, Second, we look
into the illicitness of the treaty in 1965, by showing that it did not respect the
international customs. Finally, we seek for the solutions that may support the
victims and their concerned families. In connection with this, we will examine
the role of the Korean and Japanese Governments, and moreover the
cooperation between the south Korea and the North Korea to cope with the
issue of the damage claim.
