I heard that there was a time that Korea was colonized by Japan, and Japan and China had a war!. Or maybe other nation!. Then Japanese forced Korean young women, even girls out and turned them into something like sex slaves for "tired", -sex needing- Japanese soldiers who were out in the battle!. the Korean girls were in brutal condition, bitten and forced to have sex that they did not want!.

With so many Japanese men away from home, they needed some kind of comfort to ease the stress of a harsh military life!. So why not just rape and kill beautiful women!. Anyway they are not Japanese and who will know!? That's the mentality of those people back in those days!. Many girls as young as 10 were repeatedly raped over and over until no longer useful, then murdered when finished!. Many girls killed themselves because of the shame put upon them!. This happened from the mid 1930's in Korea and China and later in the 1940's in the Philippines!.
