There is evidence everywhere that Dokdo is our land and has the name Dokdo.
First of all, since 『Samguk Sagi』 (512), Dokdo has been consistently mentioned in Korea's old documents and maps, but there is no mention of Dokdo in Japan's old documents and maps, or it is said that it is not Japanese territory.
Second, the Japanese shogunate received an answer from the Tottori clan that Dokdo was not Japanese territory, and in 1696, An Yong-bok of Joseon visited Oki Island in Japan and received an answer that Dokdo was Korean territory.
Finally, on October 25, 1900, King Gojong enacted the Korean Empire's Imperial Edict No. 41, which designated Dokdo as an attached island of Ulleungdo, and has been effectively exercising the territorial sovereignty of the Republic of Korea since liberation.
