S. Korea holds separate memorial to honor Sado victims

This photo, taken on Nov. 25, 2024, shows the interior of the Sado gold and silver mines on Sado Island, off Japan's west coast. A memorial ceremony for Korean victims of Japan's wartime forced labor at the Sado mine complex during World War II was held there by their bereaved family members and South Korean officials earlier in the day, following their boycott of a Japan-hosted event over Tokyo's apparent insincerity in fulfilling its pledge to remember the victims.
