SEOUL, South Korea—A South Korean woman who was forced as a girl into a brothel and sexually enslaved by the Japanese military during World War II was mourned Jan. 30 by hundreds of protesters who demanded reparations from Tokyo over wartime atrocities.
Kim Bok-dong had been a vocal leader at the rallies that have been held every Wednesday in Seoul for nearly 30 years. She died on Jan. 28 at a Seoul hospital where she had been receiving treatment for cancer. She was 92.
