Photo taken on March 19, 2018 shows 90-year-old Pian Huanying at home in Nuanquan Village of Qinxian County, north China's Shanxi Province. In the autumn of 1942, Pian was abducted and abused by Japanese invaders at the age of 14. She was rescued by her relatives about 20 days later. After that, she was captured for three times. Some 400,000 women across Asia were forced to become sex slaves for the Japanese army during WWII. Nearly half of them were Chinese, according to the Research Center for Comfort Women.
