The ruling in which victims of comfort women in the Japanese military filed a claim against the Japanese government for compensation for damages was confirmed.
The Seoul Central District Court ruled on the 8th that 12 victims of comfort women, including the late grandmother Bae Chun-hee, filed a lawsuit against the Japanese government for damages claiming compensation to the plaintiffs by 100 million won each.
On the day of the sentencing, the court “delivered the judgment by public notice,” and the Japanese government was able to appeal until midnight yesterday, but the first trial decision was confirmed without filing a letter of appeal.
Service by public notice is a system in which service is deemed to have been made if the reason for service is publicly posted when service is not performed in the usual way.
The Japanese government has refused to comply with lawsuits under the principle of international law that sovereign states do not stand in courts of other countries.
Accordingly, the court judged the case after considering the case as being delivered by “service by public notice,” and because the case was a crime against humanity at the national level, it decided that it had the right to try it in a Korean court and raised the hands of the victims.
