Recently opened to the public was a testimony made by the former commander of defense corps of the Imperial Japanese Army more than 20 years ago.

According to it, the Japanese imperialists took lots of Koreans to Okinawa, Japan in labor conscription and forced them to carry explosives and do other dangerous work.

At a time when the Japanese army was fighting ground warfare against the U.S. army that landed on Okinawa in 1945, it forced the Koreans to dash into the U.S. tanks with explosives on their back, threatening to kill if they run away.

Over 10 000 drafted Koreans were forced to the battle against the U.S. army.

Pak Su Nam, a Korean-Japanese documentary film director, collected relevant data on the basis of the testimony and buckled down to producing a documentary film.

Despite the Japanese authorities' pressure, Pak made public the film to disclose the Japanese imperialists' brutal crimes after more than 50 years.

The Japanese reactionaries can not curtain off the truth of history no matter how hard they attempt to deny and distort the crimes they committed against the Korean nation and evade the responsibility for them.
