History
In 2017, Jikai Taketomi, a Japanese man who runs a private war archive in Japan, donated 30 items from his collection to the museum, and offered his apologies for Japan's role in World War II.

In 2018, a bronze statue that had been illegally erected in protest in front of the Japanese Consulate General in Busan was moved to the museum, despite pushback from the protestors who installed it.

In October 2019, former Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama visited the museum. Hatoyama said after the visit:

"I hope that Japanese people visit this place, and humbly face the historic truth... I deeply apologize for the fact that 8 million of about 20 million Joseon (Korean) people at the time were forcefully mobilized as military personnel, civilians attached to the military, and forced laborers, and many lost lives... Japanese people should learn many things from history like this, and should open up the future with a sense of responsibility as perpetrators."
