Japan continues to distort the past, rather than reflect on it.

In particular, the Japanese right-wing powers are spreading fake news on the Internet, and recently, they even made absurd claims that South Korea killed Japanese fishermen and took Dokdo.



This is Yoo Seong-jae's correspondent from Tokyo.

is a YouTube channel operated by DHC TV, a subsidiary of DHC, a Japanese cosmetics conglomerate.



Since last January, a one-hour talk program called'News Women' has been published every week, and the appearance is as good as a terrestrial broadcast by inviting famous celebrities to a gorgeous set.



However, if you look at the contents, the far right figures are filled with injecting a distorted view of history into the young performers.



In the broadcast on the 23rd of last month, which dealt with the Dokdo issue, fake news that Korea killed and stolen 45 Japanese fishermen came out in subtitles, and the host even made a statement that the Self-Defense Forces should move.



[Takeda/Progressor: (In Korea) You have to say that the Self-Defense Forces are going to take it because you are illegally occupying it.]



In another broadcast, a famous far-right actor appeared and denied forced labor of Koreans.



In addition, content that promotes disgust by dealing with comfort women and the Rising Sun Flag from a far-right perspective is spreading on the Internet.



[Professor Tsukamoto/Obirin University: It is difficult for the right wing to use the existing media as a propaganda medium, so they are actively working on the Internet.]



It is pointed out that the Japanese right wing, who felt a sense of crisis as the number of young people who feel close to Korea due to the Korean Wave, etc., continues to seek new channels to spread the distorted history, so caution is needed.
