While the frozen relationship between Korea and Japan remains unresolved, efforts are being made to improve relations, mainly in the political world.

Lee Nak-yeon, head of the Democratic Party, met with Takeo Kawamura, secretary of the Japanese-Korean Congress, known as an aide to Prime Minister Suga.

Representative Lee is a representative Ji-Japanese politician and it seems likely that various measures have been discussed to resolve the conflict between Korea and Japan.

Since Suga’s inauguration, there has been no progress in relations between Korea and Japan.

Representatively, since the beginning of this month, Korean-Japanese businessmen traveling to and from the two countries were exempted from quarantine measures.

Prime Minister Suga has been advocating for the Abe regime’s succession, but has focused on the importance of Korea-Japan relations, sparking interest in whether it will provide an engine to improve relations.

However, the perception of history, the root cause of the conflict, is the dominance of the Abe regime.

The position is that while the foreign minister has been aggressively working on historical issues, such as the demolition of the girl’s statue in Berlin, the issue of mandatory compensation for compulsory military service has been resolved through the agreement. Of claim.

As the schedule for the Korea-China-Japan summit has not yet been scheduled due to the deterioration of the Korea-Japan relationship, it is noteworthy whether we can find clues to improve the relationship through communication through various channels, including political circles.
