Comfort women
In 2015, Park reached an agreement with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe regarding the Comfort women issue. Japan apologized to former comfort women and provided 1 billion yen ($8.8 million) towards an assistance fund as terms of the agreement. The two governments agreed that the issue would be “irreversibly resolved”. However, in 2017, Park’s successor, President Moon Jae-in, stated that the deal was seriously flawed and unilaterally terminated it.
