S. Korea demands 35 revisions to Japanese textbooks

SEOUL, South Korea - South Korean Foreign Affairs and Trade Minister Han Seung Soo (R) hands over documents to Japanese Ambassador Terusuke Terada at his ministry in Seoul on May 8, demanding Japan make 35 revisions to eight controversial history textbooks. South Korea feels the textbooks justify Japan's colonial rule of the Korean Peninsula and whitewash wartime atrocities committed by the Imperial Japanese Army.
