The entrance to Annandale, a Korean town in the Washington DC area.

The girl statue, which had been wandering for three years due to Japanese interference, took place here in October 2019.

Members of the Korean American group gathered in front of the Washington’Peace Girl Award’ this time to condemn Professor Ramsey.

They also recalled that in 2007 the US House of Representatives passed a resolution calling for Japanese government accountability with regard to comfort women.

At the same time, we plan to receive signatures from people from all walks of life and send them to Professor Ramsey, Harvard University, and academic journals to request correction and apology of the distorted facts.

This is to make the truth of the Japanese military sexual slavery issue known at this opportunity in the face of historical corruption.
