Chairperson of the House of Councilors

As Japan-Korea relations deteriorated, Chairman of the House of Councilors Shandong has decided not to meet with the Korean President of the Moon, Mr. Hyung-san, who will visit Japan, to attend the G20 National Assembly next week.

South Korea ’s Chairman of the Moon, Mr. Hyung-san, over the comfort women issue, said in February that the emperor of the emperor said “If you apologize, it will be solved.” And protested against the Korean ambassador to Japan.

According to the Secretariat of the House of Councilors, in response to this, in October, Mr. Mun received a letter that included the phrase “Apologetics for those who have been hurt”.

On the other hand, Chairman Shandong sent a letter saying “Not enough answers to the Japanese people” and asked again to apologize and withdraw the remarks, but there has been no response so far.

Chairman Moon said on November 4 that he would like to have a personal meeting with Chairman Shandong when he visited Japan to attend the G20 Congress held in Tokyo. It means that you have decided.
