Fire at Korean Cultural Center in Tokyo
도쿄 한국 문화원에 방화 사건 발생
An unidentified man tried to set fire to the Korean Cultural Center in Tokyo last night.
Nobody was hurt and the property wasn′t damaged， except for the stone wall near the side entrance， which was blackened by the flames.
According to CCTV analysis， the unidentified man poured lighter oil on the wall and set it on fire around midnight.
An employee quickly discovered the blaze.
The motive for the crime is not clear yet， but the Korean embassy in Japan and The Ministry of Foreign Affairs are working together to aid the investigation.
The center is asking the Japanese police for more security and a quick arrest of the suspect.

Japanese wartime sex slavery deal brings tension to South Korea-Japan FM meeting in Tokyo
한일외교장관 도쿄회담…韓,위안부TF 설명 vs 日 합의이행해야
South Korea's Foreign Minister met with her Japanese counterpart on Tuesday in Tokyo.
They are said to have discussed various bilateral concerns, including North Korea, but the subject of Japan's wartime sexual enslavement of Korean women was once again the thorniest issue.
Kwon Jang-ho has this report.
A short, terse handshake began the first Seoul-Tokyo foreign ministers' meeting on Japanese soil in over 2 years.
Seoul's foreign ministry revealed that the two foreign ministers, Kang Kyung-wha and Taro Kono, discussed various issues, from strengthening economic, cultural and human exchanges, to reaffirming their pledge to resolve the North Korean nuclear crisis peacefully.
They also discussed Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's possible visit to Korea for the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics next February, and agreed on close cooperation to further develop the relationship between the two countries.
However, there remained a contentious issue on the table concerning the issue of Japan's wartime sexual enslavement of Korean women.
On December 28th 2015, a landmark agreement between the two governments was thought to have been reached to draw a line under the issue, involving an indirect apology from Prime Minister Abe, and the establishment of a foundation to compensate the victims.
But the agreement has been under fire in South Korea ever since, especially with the victims themselves saying it did not go far enough and was reached without their consent.
President Moon had pledged during his presidential campaign that they would review the agreement, and a task force was formed in July to handle the issue.
It's been announced that the results of their review will be released on December 27th, a day before the agreement's two year anniversary, and it's expected to be critical of deal.
On arrival at Haneda Airport on Tuesday morning, Kang told reporters that she will be informing Kono of the details of the task force, but said that the results will not necessarily fall in line with the administration's stance on the matter.
Kono meanwhile told reporters before the meeting that the 2015 agreement was final and irreversible, and that Seoul should sincerely carry out its terms.
The two foreign ministers are said to have concluded Tuesday's meeting, pledging to continue discussions on the matter.
After the meeting, Kang visited the Korean Cultural Center in Shinjuku to see the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics promotional booth,... and she is also expected to make a courtesy call with Prime Minister Abe before she returns on Wednesday.

Japan, China, S. Korea to co-host cultural events during Olympics
The culture ministers of Japan, China and South Korea have agreed to co-host cultural events during the Olympic and Paralympic games in their countries between 2018 and 2022.
Japan's culture minister, Yoshimasa Hayashi, and his Chinese and South Korean counterparts, Luo Shugang and Do Jongwhan, adopted the Kyoto declaration after meeting in Japan's ancient capital on Saturday.
The three countries will run joint cultural programs, coinciding with the 2018 Winter Games in Pyeongchang, the 2020 Summer Games in Tokyo and the 2022 Winter Games in Beijing.
During the Pyeongchang games next year, they plan to hold an art exhibition, a calligraphy exhibition and a theatrical performance featuring tigers that often appear in Korean legends.
Kanazawa City in central Japan was chosen to be one of the three Culture Cities of East Asia for next year, and will host exchange programs.
A committee of experts has been set up to consider tie-ups with cities in Southeast Asia and Europe.
Hayashi told reporters after the meeting that although various issues exist among the neighbors, deepening cultural exchanges will help to promote friendship.

Ōkubo,Shin-Ōkubo Tokyo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shin-Ōkubo: Tokyo's historic ethnic Korean neighborhood.
Shin-Ōkubo (新大久保?) is a neighborhood within Tokyo's Shinjuku ward known for its extensive Korean community. It is built around Shin-Ōkubo Station and is accessible on the Yamanote Line. Shin-Ōkubo is home to both Korean residents in Japan as well as Korean immigrants, and has seen an upsurge in popularity due to Hallyu pop-culture. Unlike most of the Tokyo metropolitan area, where signs are bilingual Japanese and English, many signs in Shin-Ōkubo are trilingual: Korean, Japanese and English.
Shin-Ōkubo Station (新大久保駅 Shin-Ōkubo-eki?) is a railway station on the Yamanote Line in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan, operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East).[1] Opened on November 15, 1914, it is close to the large local Korea ethnic neighborhood. Shin-Ōkubo station has only one exit.
Koreatown Tokyo
According to official statistics in 2002, the Korean population in Tokyo amounted to 80,000, which was the second largest following that of Osaka.
Tokyo's Korean-oriented commercial centre is located in the district of Okubo around the area of Shin-Okubo Station and Okubo Station in Shinjuku Ward. Shinjuku Ward itself has over 14,201 registered Korean residents[4] this is over 20% of the registered Korean residents in Tokyo; Unlike other Japanese Koreatowns, the Okudo Koreatown developed after World War II and is dominated by new-comers - recent immigrants from South Korea who have retained their ethnic and cultural identity, as can be seen from the ubiquitous signs written in hangul.
One of the contributing factors in the development of Okubo into a Korean area is the low rents and a reputation as a seedy area with many Love Hotels south of Okubo station. The low rents and willingness of landlords to accept foreign tenants has attached Korean and other Asian migrants to the area [5] . These Businesses cater of the migrant community and increasingly Japanese who come to experience ethnic cuisine. Other immigrants from China, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, and various other nationalities makes this one of the most colourful and multicultural areas in Tokyo.
The area around Mikawashima station on the Jōban Line, to the north of the city, is a Koreatown dominated by Zainichi immigrants from Jeju island.
Also noteworthy is a smaller-scale Zainichi Korean quarter to the southeast of Ueno station, and to the southwest, a community of South Korean new-comers.

Shin-Ōkubo Station (新大久保駅 Shin-Ōkubo-eki?) is a railway station on the Yamanote Line in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan, operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East).[1] Opened on November 15, 1914, it is close to the large local Korea ethnic neighborhood. Shin-Ōkubo station has only one exit.
Koreatown Tokyo
According to official statistics in 2002, the Korean population in Tokyo amounted to 80,000, which was the second largest following that of Osaka.
Tokyo's Korean-oriented commercial centre is located in the district of Okubo around the area of Shin-Okubo Station and Okubo Station in Shinjuku Ward. Shinjuku Ward itself has over 14,201 registered Korean residents[4] this is over 20% of the registered Korean residents in Tokyo; Unlike other Japanese Koreatowns, the Okudo Koreatown developed after World War II and is dominated by new-comers - recent immigrants from South Korea who have retained their ethnic and cultural identity, as can be seen from the ubiquitous signs written in hangul.
One of the contributing factors in the development of Okubo into a Korean area is the low rents and a reputation as a seedy area with many Love Hotels south of Okubo station. The low rents and willingness of landlords to accept foreign tenants has attached Korean and other Asian migrants to the area [5] . These Businesses cater of the migrant community and increasingly Japanese who come to experience ethnic cuisine. Other immigrants from China, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, and various other nationalities makes this one of the most colourful and multicultural areas in Tokyo.
The area around Mikawashima station on the Jōban Line, to the north of the city, is a Koreatown dominated by Zainichi immigrants from Jeju island.
Also noteworthy is a smaller-scale Zainichi Korean quarter to the southeast of Ueno station, and to the southwest, a community of South Korean new-comers.
