When Japan introduced industrial heritage, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs officially protested the distortion of the history of forced punishment.

Foreign Minister Lee Tae-ho, today (15th), summoned Japanese Ambassador Tomita to Korea and expressed regret that Japan's Industrial Heritage Information Center, which was released to the public today, exhibited material that denied forced recruitment.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also protested that Japan did not implement UNESCO World Heritage Committee recommendations and follow-up measures in a statement.
