*UPDATE*
I genuinely dont know how your desire for sex could ever outweigh destroying another persons life. I can not fathom this concept
It's not confort. It's rape
Im from Greece and today I learned all this tragic and inhuman tragedy.. I wish that her soul has been calmed after so many difficulties..
This really gives me a reality check. It truly makes me see what’s important in life. Safety, love, kindness, and hope.
Damn, I am Chinese and my grandma used to tell me scary story about the Japanese army invaded our village when my grandma still a little girl. My great grandmother had to shave all of the girls hair in order to let the Japanese soldier believe they are boys not girls.
Im japanese and i want to apologise on behalf of my people it’s disgusting how some of Japanese still think this is not important or amusing
Her strength, composure, and wisdom are incredible.
Bless her Lord!!! My 3rd daughter is a sex trafficking survivor who is half Asian and this made me cry and think of my daughter. My daughter was 16 and is 21 now.
The fact that the Japanese Government STILL won't make a formal apology just increases the shame for Japan...
The saddest thing is she only wanted an official apology & history book rewritten, she didn't even have her wish fulfilled. May you Rip Angel. Prayers for you.
I love how she, despite going through so much still thought of her other partners suffering if she got married :') just what are these people made of. So strong, so so strong and kind. I wish she had lived a better life.
I cried while watching this. These poor women. My heart 😭

If it's not because of Asian Boss, this story would have died with her.
They owe you a life, I hope you are experiencing the peace you deserve. Our hearts are with you from Turkey 🇹🇷 🙏🏻💕
She is so courageous and brave for sharing her story to the world. It breaks my heart knowing at such a young age she experienced such horrible acts.
All I can think about is how many men participated in that vile act and that some of them are still alive in this world, living quietly happy lives and will die very soon without even remembering or even feeling guilty about what they did. Millions of men.

Give this lady the apology she deserves ! So heartbreaking to hear her pain
