What is the Japan-Korea Youth Conference?
ISAK Project Japan-Korea Youth Conference is in Karuizawa
International School of Asia Karuizawa (ISAK)
It is an international non-profit organization that was established mainly by the students of
The purpose is to be a bridge between Japan and South Korea.
At ISAK, students from more than 83 countries gather and live together in a dormitory.
So, Japanese students and Korean students will be in the future
I had the opportunity to discuss Japan-Korea relations.
However, the territorial and historical issues of Japanese and Korean students,
Opinions on trade etc. did not mesh at all,
The discussion didn't move forward at all.
Therefore, Japanese and Koreans have different ways of thinking about various problems.
We talked about a completely different reason.
As a result, the media and education in Japan and South Korea are completely different.
I learned that it is being conveyed as a "fact".
At this time, I realized that the reason why Japan-South Korea relations did not improve was that the people of both countries did not have the opportunity to talk about the differences in the "facts".
It consists of 11 Korean and Japanese students who noticed it.
Our project team
I want to improve the ever- deteriorating relationship between Japan and South Korea
With that in mind, we established the Japan-Korea Youth Conference.
In the past year, Japanese and Korean students have been able to communicate through dialogue.
Skills to understand each other correctly and become future leaders of Japan and Korea
I have been working every day to provide a place where I can wear it.
