On the 19th, Professor Seo Kyung-duk of Sungshin Women's University said, "Our government should urge Japan to correct this."Professor

seo said, "We confirmed this after visiting the Aikawa Local Museum in Sado City over the weekend," adding, "In short, it is full of errors."

In particular, the museum emphasized that although Koreans had done harsh work, the expression "forcedness" could not be found.

He also argued that the term "Korean" used in many of the exhibition contents should be changed to "Korean," and that ethnic discriminatory expressions that disparage Koreans, such as "Penarians are inherently dull and have extremely low functional talent," and "The unclean habits peculiar to the Korean people do not change."Professor

said to UNESCO that Japan will display the entire history of the Sado mine in close consultation with South Korea, adding, "We will file a complaint with UNESCO about Japan's behavior."
