The Japanese government had enslaved, raped and murdered thousands of Korean women during WWII. These women were rounded up in large numbers and shipped to military camps to "comfort" the men there. The first-hand accounts from the few survivors were terrifying and testified to the brutality they've endured.
Even decades afterwards, they suffered severe emotional and physical scars. Many became involved in successful campaigns to force the Japanese government to formally apologize and acknowledge its role in the slave trade.
In 2015, the Japanese government sent $8.3 million in reparations to the few survivors. Recently, actual footage of the comfort women surfaced on the internet, opening old scars.

Not to be cold about this topic, it's horrible what the Japanese did, but I find it fucking disgusting how there has never been war reparations from America or the allies in general.
Not to Germany in particular, which they definitely fucking deserve, but to France, Italy, etc.
Japan wasn't the only rapists, and that's actually what I applaud the Nazi Army as well as the Genuine Soviet Army.
They were professional and kind. They were still brutal and would kill who they were supposed to, however they did not senseless go around raping women and more-often young children.
The Americans, British, and later-Soviet troops did, as did the Japanese.
The sad thing is nobody acknowledges those crimes, and the only documentary I've ever found addressing it was a the following documentary done by a group that seems to be insanely supportive of Nazi ideology if I remember correctly.
But the documentary had it right from the books I've read and the people I knew who were there.
While I disagree with the who anti-jew part of the film, although it was actually the jews and thats not a myth, that wasn't because they were jews, but rather rich powerful people were often Jews.
Otherwise, however biased, it shows and describes the real events of what happend to the other side.
The exact same happened to Japan as well.
The Germans were vile, but at least their troops had some respect and at least they didn't do vile things to all when they were winning and already secured victory.
The Americans, The British, and the mogels continued to rape (literal) Germany and brutalize it for years.
Most soldiers deserved a bullet in the head upon returning to their home countries, not a reward.
