서론 |
Dear webmaster,
Hello. This is Younjun Kang and I'm a high school student in South Korea. I have a project and research about marine environment and ecosystem, using your website. I really thank you for your website which provides useful contents for my research.

| 본론 |
However, I have found some minor different information in your website from other sources during the research. In the news article of your website, the name of the sea between Korea and Japan is described as "Sea of Japan". It seems unreasonable to use the name "Sea of Japan" which is decided in the period of imperialism because its original name is "East Sea" which has been used throughout history.
It is clear that the East Sea is not Japan's territorial sea, but Korea's territorial sea, in the old maps and old geography books of Korea and Japan. Through this, it can be seen that historically, the fact that the East Sea is a territorial sea of Korea has already been proven and is a clear truth that no one can deny. |
Therefore, I believe that the body of water between Korea and Japan should be described as the “East Sea” or at least with the simultaneous use of both names; “East Sea/Sea of Japan.”

| 결론 |
I hope that errors in your website will be corrected.
Thank you again for your help. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely, Younjun Kang. |
