A Buddhist monk dies after setting himself on fire during a weekend rally against South Korea’s impeached president, Park Geun-hye.

在周末的一个针对韩国总统朴槿惠的集会中，一个和尚自焚以表抗议，朴槿惠已被弹劾。

His severe burns caused multiple organ failures and a Seoul hospital pronounced him dead on Monday, Jan.9th.

他严重烧伤，导致器官衰竭而死，首尔的一家医院于1月9号，周一宣布了他死亡的消息。

In his notebook recovered from the scene,

警方在现场找到了他的笔记本，

the monk criticized the government’s 2015 agreement to settle a long-standing dispute on ’comfort women’ with Japan.

这个和尚在笔记本中批评2015年韩国政府就慰安妇这个历史争端与日本达成协议。

South Korea’s comfort women were captured and forced to provide sexual services to the Japanese Imperial Army before and during World War Two.

在二战前和二战期间，韩国慰安妇被日本帝国军队强行抓去并被迫为日本军人提供性服务。

Japan apologized and pledged to fund a Seoul-based foundation that supports surviving comfort women.

日本为此表示道歉，并承诺在首尔成了基金会，用于支持那些还在世的慰安妇。

The decision is apparently connected to security concerns over the full-face Islamic garment.

同时，韩国政府同意不再提此事，

and find a solution concerning a bronze statue representing comfort women in front of the Japanese embassy in Seoul.

并同意将韩民间组织放在日本驻首尔大使馆门前的慰安妇铜像移走。

But many Koreans are not so ready to forgive.

但是很多韩国人还没有准备好去原谅日本。

Students have been holding sit-in protests around the statue to keep the government from removing it.

学生围坐在铜像旁表示抗议，防止政府将该铜像移走。
