Dear webmaster,

Hello. This is Seyeon Kim who studies oceanography 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.

However, I have found some minor different information in your website from other sources during the research. In the map of your website, the name of the island between Korea and Japan is described as "Takeshima". It seems unreasonable to use the name "Takeshima" which is decided in the period of imperialism because its original name is "Dockdo" which has been used throughout history. Therefore, I believe that the island between Korea and Japan should be described as the “Dokdo” or at least with the simultaneous use of both names; “Dockdo/Takeshima.”
