South Korea and Japan are likely to hold director general-level talks in Seoul next week to discuss the issue of Japan's wartime sexual enslavement of Korean women, Seoul government sources said Saturday. South Korea and Japan have been trying to set up a director-level meeting to try to resolve a series of pending issues arising from their shared history. Seoul reportedly wants the meeting, if held, to focus on the so-called "comfort women" issue while Japan insists that the topic should include territorial and other issues as well.
