Talk:GRSJ224/Comfort Women and Colonial Japan

I was very interested in your blog post as I am South Korean, and know a few things about the discussion and issue of comfort women in South Korea. From my knowledge, there are only a handful of women who revealed themselves as comfort women, forced into sexual slavery by Japanese officials during the colonial period. Even with these personal accounts, the Japanese government refused to formally acknowledge these actions, feigning ignorance of this affair. You did a good job in providing insight into this historical affair, but I think you should integrate your sources better (citations) to give more validity to your information, and also give additional historical context of the whole issue of the comfort women (for example, possible reasons or methods of the Japanese government hiding/refusing the whole affair; possible signs of reconciliation that the Koreans attempted to make with the Japanese, etc.).
