If you really want to know what's the story behind the discord between Japan and Korea especially in historical issue, read this. a bit long though.
Meme aside, Japan's official perception of modern history is very clear, consistent and logical. Japan, abolishing centuries-lasting isolationist policy, reluctantly joined the rampant international power game in the 19th century due to tenacious invitations, or interferences, from the West, most notably the US. Seeing Russian expansion not only to Manchuria but also to Korea, which was strategically the Achilles' heel of Japan for its proximity, Japan kicked Russians out of inner Manchuria and annexed Korea to prevent her from becoming Russian sphere of influence (pro-Japan factions in Korea pretty welcomed this too, saying "Korea is a Great Power now", even though they are branded as traitors today). This was done in complete conformity with the game's rule (kinda jungle law in retrospect though), and so Japanese annexation of Korea was approved by international society of the time, in other words, major players of the game, namely the US, UK and France, and they mutually recognized each other's possessions (the Philippines for the US on Taft-Katsura Agreement, for example). So, the government and Japanese people don't find any fault in this age. It might sound a bit harsh, but that's what the world was like back then, and Japanese people find it unreasonable to judge the past by contemporary standards, not to mention the fact that Japan itself was literally the last bastion of fully independent nations of non-European origin (it's a harsh reality). The game, however, ended after WW1, which resulted in Pact of Paris/Kellogg-Briand Pact in 1928, which stipulates a ban on use of military to resolve international disputes including expansion from then on, and this the very ground that negates the cause of 30's Japanese expansionist policy that led to the WW2, for which modern Japan apologizes.

As for Koreans, it's all about WE WUZ VICTIMZ; almost everything boils down to this sentiment, and, culturally, sentiment is given great importance in Korea, in which politics and even judicial system revolve around what they call national sentiment, and courts are really allowed/expected to somewhat defy the laws and principles when it comes to satisfying it. So, they don't, or don't want to, see larger picture and circumstance they had been in before Japanese annexation: it was, objectively, an abject, sub-africa tier shithole on the verge of collapse subject to equally tottering China, shithole around which Russians already began to build naval fortresses and railways to make it possible for them to mobilize large forces rapidly in East Asia. For this reason, they don't even understand what Japan's been apologizing for, and often get butthurt when some Japanese politicians affirm pre-30's things like annexation and development of Korea, saying that Japan always overturns its remorse. This is, however, not true, because from Japan's perspective, it doesn't regret the annexation in the first place. This is the crux of the issue. There exists really a huge perception gap between Japan and Korea. In a way, Japan-China history dispute is easier to be settled, because Japan admits its political mismanagement in the 30's and invasion of China, no matter what radical nationalists say, except for some details like death toll in Nanking Massacre or whatever, while it's almost impossible for Japan and Korea to reconcile their premises. This is why their history talk always ends up this kind of monkey fight:
Korea "Japan please apology, we have a moral high ground now (even though we do enjoy the fruit of modernization)!"
Japan "What? there is no free lunch, every modernization accompanies pros and cons, deal with it, faggot!"
