South Korea and China have agreed to launch joint research on the Japanese military's sexual enslavement of women during World War Two.
Korea's foreign ministry-funded Northeast Asian History Foundation and China's Jilin Provincial Archives signed an agreement on Monday that calls for researchers to "find the truth" regarding the dark history.
According to Xinhua news agency, the research agreement, which appears to be the first joint history study between the two countries, cites the comfort women issue as a human rights abuse.■
