Question: What kind of efforts can Korea and Japan make to have a desirable relationship with each other?
Answer from the Ascended Master Saint Germain through Kim Michaels. This answer was given during the 2021 Webinar – Being the Open Door for Planet Earth.
Well, if you look neutrally at the two nations, you need to ask yourself: ”Which of the two nations is the most likely to be able and willing to change the equation of the relationship?” And quite frankly, when I look at the two nations, it is clear to me that Japan is far more stuck in a certain mindset than South Korea is. It is clear that the nation that has the greatest potential to change the equation is Korea.
In order to do this, Korea as a nation and Koreans in general need to completely and unconditionally forgive the Japanese nation and the Japanese people for anything that happened in the past. You can see that the whole issue of comfort women and the other events during the Second World War is still a very big issue and even some older issues are still there. But I am simply telling you that if the relationship is to change, Korea needs to forgive Japan. Also, if Korea will forgive Japan, it will set Korea free from this attachment to the past and it will help the progress of Korea, even if nothing changes in Japan.
A relationship is, of course, always a two-sided process. It is possible that Korea could completely forgive Japan and Japan still would not be willing to change and therefore the relationship would not change. But there would still be positive effects of this forgiveness in Korea itself and it will also improve the relationship between Korea and other nations. It will especially enable Korea to have a tighter relationship with some of the more modern democracies who have to a large degree forgiven those who have wronged them in the past.
