Initially, Jugun Ianfu itself was divided into 3 recruitments. First , voluntary: where Japanese women themselves voluntarily became part of Jugun Ianfu because they felt it was a devotion to the country. Second, the lure of a better future: where Korean, Chinese and Malay women eventually became victims because of the guise of getting a decent education and a bright future.

There may be many more women who witnessed the cruelty of Jugun Ianfu in Indonesia, but their names are never known.
