'Comfort Women' Statue Near Japanese Consulate In Busan

BUSAN, SOUTH KOREA - FEBRUARY 21: The statue of a girl symbolizing 'comfort women' is seen in front of the Japanese consulate-general on February 21, 2017 in Busan, South Korea. Japanese diplomats have been demanding South Korean counterparts to make efforts removing the statue of a girl symbolising 'comfort women' that was erected in front of the Japanese consulate in Busan in late 2016. The statues of comfort women set up in diplomatic establishments in Seoul and Busan by South Korean civil groups symbolise the dispute over the comfort women - Japan's euphemism for the Korean females organised for Japan's military brothels during Japan's 1910-1945 colonial rule of the Korean Peninsula.
