comfort woman
A comfort woman is a term used to describe women and girls forced into sexual slavery by the Imperial Japanese Army before and during World War II. The women came from several countries across Asia, predominantly Korea and China, and were often deceived or coerced into serving at military brothels, known as "comfort stations." This issue remains a major point of contention in relations between Japan and its neighboring countries.
