Jeomyeon Ha, one of Korean victims of Japanese military sexual slavery passed away in the morning on 26th October 2018. 


She was born in Hadong Gyeongsanbuk-do province in Korea in 1922.


When she was 15 years old, the late Ms Ha visited her old sister's house in Osaka, Japan.

In Japan, she followed a neighbor who said they would send her home, but she discovered that it was a factory when she finally arrived. 

That was where her nightmares began.  


After arriving, she was sent to a comfort station in Taiwan and victimized as a sexual slave by Japanese military.

She was taken to several comfort stations in Hainan, Hongkong and Indonesia until she was 24 years old. 

 

Ms Ha was reported herself as a survivor to Korean government in 1993 and started to live at the House of Sharing in 2016. 

When she died, she was 96 years old. 

Now 27 survivors are still alive in Korea.
