Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida expressed his desire on October 23 to open a "new era" in bilateral relations with South Korea, which have rapidly improved after Seoul pledged to resolve long-running wartime labor disputes with Tokyo, Kyodo reported.

In a message at a meeting in Tokyo attended by political and business figures from both countries, Prime Minister Kishida said: "Japan and South Korea are important neighbors in jointly addressing various challenges in the international community."

Meanwhile, Japanese Foreign Minister Yoko Kamikawa said close cooperation between Japan and South Korea has never been more necessary given the serious security situation in East Asia.

In a message to the conference, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol expressed a similar view, expressing his willingness to cooperate with Japan on a wide range of regional and global issues, including security, economy and advanced technology.
