South Korea court rules in favor of victims of wartime sexual slavery

A South Korean court on Thursday ordered Japan to compensate 16 women for forced sexual slavery during World War II, overturning a lower-court ruling that had dismissed the case. The ruling comes after a lower court in 2021 said the women forced to serve Japanese troops – euphemistically labeled “comfort women” – were not entitled to compensation, citing “sovereign immunity” for Tokyo.

There's this read to go through https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_war_apology_statements_issued_by_Japan with the relevant bit being

Both stated that this agreement will "finally and irreversibly" resolve the contentious issue and that "on the premise that the Government of Japan will steadily implement the measures it announced", both countries "will refrain from accusing or criticizing each other regarding this issue in the international community, including at the United Nations".[56]

I think it will be better when the geezer ultra-nationalists finally die out, but there are of course younger ones as well that they raised.

On the other hand, this kinda goes against the "finally and irreversibly resolve" bit.

There's also the political theatre aspect. Korea likes to rile up the ultra-nationalist left as Japan does with their right for domestic political points.
