The haunting legacy of the Second World War lives on in the South Korean 'comfort women' who were forced into prostitution by the Japanese army.
Gil Won-Ok, 88, was taken to a Japanese army brothel in 1940 - when she was just 13.
She has demanded an apology from the Japanese government for the years of sexual abuse she suffered, during which time she caught syphilis and developed tumors. A military doctor then removed Gil's uterus, leaving her unable to bear children.
Lee Ok-Sun, also 88, was taken to a Chinese airfield in 1942 - when she was 15 - where she was repeatedly raped. Later she was taken to various Japanese army brothels.
Now 70 years on from Japan's World War Two defeat on August 15, 1945, hundreds took part in a rally outside Japan's embassy in South Korea's capital - demanding an apology on their behalf - where an 81-year-old man lit himself on fire.
