This is a view from the 28th floor of the Shinjuku L Tower where the photo exhibit for Ahn Sehong "Comfort Women in China" was being held in the Nikon Plaza. No photographs were allowed and there was a strong security presence due to the the fear of protest or sabotage by right wingers. It is a sad story of women taken from Korea to China to be used as sex slaves in WWII, and then left there to fend for themselves. The fact many young Japanese are totally unaware of these war crimes is a point of contention since it is rarely mentioned in textbooks.
