My name is KIM Bok-dong(2019)

My Name Is KIM Bok-dong is a documentary about a Korean woman's decades-long fight for justice. In 1992, KIM Bok-dong publicly revealed she was one of thousands of "comfort women"—victims of systematic sexual slavery imposed by the Japanese military during World War II. Seeking an official apology and accountability from the Japanese government, she faced denial and obstruction at every turn. The film chronicles her relentless activism alongside other survivors, culminating in 2011 when the Statue of Peace was erected outside the Japanese Embassy in Seoul after 1,000 consecutive weekly demonstrations. KIM Bok-dong's story is a testament to resilience and the ongoing struggle for historical recognition and human rights.
