Relations between the two countries have worsened due to the end of the Korea-Japan Military Information Protection Agreement (Jisomia and GSOMIA), and Western media reports that radioactivity resulting from the Fukushima nuclear plant accident in Japan is becoming a new frontier for the conflict between the two countries.

In the article entitled Radioactive Sushi: The Korean-Japanese Conflict Extends to the Olympic Diet, the Washington Post says the two countries are fighting for the radiation problems of the Fukushima nuclear power plant ahead of the Tokyo Olympics next year.

The newspaper said South Korea's sports authorities raised concerns about the safety of radiation on and off the stadium to the Tokyo Olympic Organizing Committee, which will host the 2020 Olympics, at the Olympic Games, which ended on the 22nd. It is said to be used as another means of attack.

The newspaper also introduced that the Korea Sports Council is considering running its own restaurant because of the possibility of radioactive contamination of local foods during the Olympics.

In addition, South Korea's Ministry of Food and Drug Safety decided to double the safety inspection on Japanese foods imported from Fukushima due to radioactive contamination.

In the wake of Prime Minister Abe's efforts to make Japan's revival a chance to show off after the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, which caused the Fukushima nuclear accident, South Korea's action is to attack Japan's weak spots. Rated it.

The Japanese government, however, dismisses such concerns as unfounded, claiming that it is thoroughly checking food safety and the safety of the Olympic stadiums under strict radiation standards.

Data from the Japanese government suggest that Fukushima's radiation levels are similar to those of Seoul and Hong Kong, while Tokyo's radiation levels are around Paris and London.

The Washington Post also has strict standards for food safety, including setting the cesium content in foods to about one-twelfth of the US and EU limits.

Newspapers say environmental groups and local fishermen strongly oppose the Fukushima nuclear power plant's plan to discharge contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant.

The newspaper was also served by President Moon Jae-in, and Fukushima rice was served during a working luncheon at the G20 summit in Osaka in June, but President Moon cited Blue House officials as saying that he would leave before rice. Introduced.

Bloomberg, a US economic media, also reported in a recent article that the radiation emitted from Fukushima nuclear power plants is a new source of conflict between the two countries, which has weakened Japan's efforts to launch the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. .

The British media guardian also details the fact that the South Korean government, which is concerned about radiation, asked Japan to allow international organizations, such as Greenpeace, to inspect their own radiation levels during the Tokyo Olympics.
