Sixteen years after winding down, Korea’s Investigative Commission on Pro-Japanese Collaborators’ Property will restart operations this December to examine and seize assets illegally amassed during Japan’s occupation of Korea.
The commission’s reactivation follows the scheduled enforcement of the Special Act on Asset Confiscation for Pro-Japanese and Anti-national Collaborators to the State on Dec. 3. The law targets wealth and property accumulated through cooperation with Japanese imperial forces during the 1910–1945 colonial period.
2. How is this related to the sub
(1) Decolonization: Korea plans to seize the assets of colonial collaborators.
3. My opinion
Japanese media having a meltdown over this is quite fun to watch.
