On March 29, Foreign Ministry in S. Korea opened diplomatic documents around 1993.
According to the documents related to the Japan-S. Korea foreign ministerial meeting held in Tokyo in April that year, immediately after the Kim Young-sam administration inaugurated, in which comfort women issue was also on the agenda, even though it's positive to settle the matter, the S. Korean side made much of making Japan acknowledge "coerciveness."
The Japanese side was also ready to show certain level of recognition, and conveyed its intention to consider an expression as much as possible.


> 日本は同年8月、河野洋平官房長官談話で慰安婦の募集や管理は「総じて本人たちの意思に反して行われた」と表明した。
> 一連の過程は日本政府による 2014年の検証で公表済みだが、韓国側の文書でも改めて確認された。

In August that year, Japan expressed that >"their recruitment, transfer, control, etc., were conducted generally against their will, through coaxing, coercion, etc." in the Kono Yohei Statement.
The series of process was already published by the inspection by Tokyo in 2014, and it's re-confirmed by the documents on the S. Korean side.
