Innocence Lost by Yegina Whang


Listen Later

The stories of Korean comfort women were left untold for decades, until one woman broke the silence in 1995, 50 years after the end of World War II. Since then, several brave women have come forward with their experiences of forced prostitution for the Japanese army. This is the story of one woman, Gil Won-ok, after she was taken at the age of 13. She speaks for the women and girls whose stories were left untold, and the victims of human trafficking today.

Featuring: Gil Won-ok, Claire Schoen

Producer: Yegina Whang
Music: Sound effects and music from freemusicarchive.org, all other ambient recorded by Yegina Whang
