His poetry was translated abroad, including into Russian where some of the poems were set to music as a movement the Requiem of composer Mieczyslaw Weinberg. As a foreman at the plant supervising Korean forced labour, he later in the 1970s began a movement to obtain compensation for conscripted labourers.[2]
