Japan forcibly mobilized 120,000 Koreans as laborers: panel
SEOUL, Jan. 30 (Yonhap) -- Nearly 120,000 Koreans were forcibly mobilized as laborers under Japan's colonial rule of the Korean Peninsula in the early 1900s, a state investigative committee said Friday.
Historical records have shown that Japan drafted hundreds of thousands of Koreans to work at coal mines and military facilities or serve as sex slaves in and outside of Japan in the later years of its 1910-45 colonial occupation of the peninsula.
