This book is the first book in the English version of the Northeast Asian History Foundation's History & Culture Series, and is an English translation of the 2021 volume of the series, 『조선민중이 체험한 ‘징용’』. In the current situation where the issue of forced mobilization during the Japanese occupation is becoming more common, we aimed to publish a book on forced mobilization from the Korean perspective in English to facilitate access to historical facts and promote understanding of the history of the Japanese invasion.
