On the 11th, South Korea's Supreme Court handed down a final judgment on a lawsuit brought by the survivors of Japanese forced labor recruitment during World War II against a Japanese company. It upheld the results of the second instance judgment and demanded compensation of 100 million won from the defendant. The survivor of Jung, a Korean victim of forced labor recruitment in World War II, filed a lawsuit against Nippon Steel in April 2019. In September 2021, the court of first instance ruled that the plaintiff lost the lawsuit on the grounds that the survivor's right to claim damages had expired. The court of second instance quoted a judgment of the Supreme Court of Korea in August 2024, holding that the case had not exceeded the statute of limitations, overturned the first instance judgment, and demanded that the defendant pay 100 million won in compensation to the plaintiff.
