Upon careful review of your website, I was troubled to discover a notable inaccuracy in the labeling of the body of water adjacent to Korea. Instead of accurately using the term 'East Sea,' it has unfortunately been misrepresented as the 'Sea of Japan.' It is imperative that we address this error without delay.

Specifically, while examining one of your insightful posts titled "<Tonghae Satellite Launching Ground>," I came across a concerning oversight where the 'East Sea' was inaccurately referred to as the 'Sea of Japan.' It is crucial to understand that the 'East Sea' has been under Korea's jurisdiction since ancient times, dating back to the 6th century with the discovery of Dokdo, an island situated within its waters. Dokdo undeniably belongs to Korea, as evidenced by historical documents such as Imperial Edict No. 41, issued in 1900, which explicitly designates Dokdo as Korean territory. Furthermore, Korean authorities have consistently administered and protected the island for centuries.

Despite the overwhelming evidence supporting Korea's sovereignty over Dokdo and the East Sea, the Japanese government persistently asserts its claim to Dokdo, often citing outdated documents. However, it is crucial to recognize that Japan's occupation of Korea for 35 years resulted in the deliberate destruction of countless Korean historical records, thereby invalidating their claims.

A longstanding dispute over the ownership of Dokdo and the East Sea continues. Nevertheless, it remains an indisputable truth that Dokdo and the East Sea rightfully belong to Korea, both historically and legally.
