In the Japanese government, which has carefully prepared economic retaliation for Korea, a slightly different atmosphere has been detected. Local media reports say things are going bigger than expected and that the Japanese government has admitted that the calculations are wrong.

Let's look at the report of correspondent Yoo Sung-jae first and see if there is any real change.

<Reporter>

The Mainichi Shimbun, a leading Japanese newspaper, reported largely on the Japanese government's one export license yesterday.

The section citing Japanese government officials stands out.

The official said the government acknowledged the miscalculation, saying, “The situation has become more disturbing than expected.

He also analyzed that the export permit was intended to promote a more calm response to the Republic of Korea and to help resolve the issue of forced recruitment.

Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs officials also met with Korean correspondents today.

"I want to solve the current situation," "To do that, South Korea must provide solutions to the problem of recruitment victims."

It feels a bit different than before, which even refused to talk.

There have been reports of Japanese companies struggling with export control measures to make their own plans.

Morita Chemical, which produces high-purity hydrogen fluoride, plans to export its products from China to Korea, and Tokyo Oka Industries, which manufactures resists for semiconductors, is also considering ways to increase production at its plants, according to the Nihon Geizai newspaper.

You just saw a report from correspondent Yoo Sung-jae, and a Japanese government official said he wanted to solve the situation. Is the mood changing now?

<Reporter>

That statement is what Japanese Foreign Ministry officials are calling only Korean correspondents today.

In fact, I've delivered a message to the Korean government that the Japanese government wants to convey.

This background seems to have caused some embarrassment to Korea's stronger backlash than expected, and the Japanese government will be concerned about finding my way to live.

I have been running for about 40 days without brakes, and I think I should find a solution.

Of course, Japan is not going to do something first to find an exit.

It seems that the air current is felt, and then the Japanese government seems to be turning a little bit. Where can I find such a sign?

If Korea's export controls are not properly maintained, individual licensed items can be increased.

It's important to keep an eye on which of the list-regulated items that make up and manage lists will be difficult to export by returning them to individual permits.

This is because it reveals whether or not there is a willingness to expand.

In addition, it is the so-called anniversary of the end of the Liberation Day next week.Abe Prime Minister's remarks and the direct or not, if not a direct signal, visit the Yasukuni Shrine by Prime Minister Abe and other Japanese ministers. Seems to.
