Dear Physical Map of Asia

With my deepest respect and gratitude, I take it as an honor to write to your website. I am Ye-Won Jung, and I am proud to introduce myself as one of the people of the Republic of Korea and a student of Hana Academy Seoul.

I also work as an active member of the Dokdo Cyber Press, a non-governmental and voluntary organization with the mandate to provide correct information about Korea to the international community, including text book publishers.

I am writing to you as I have important suggestions to make in regards to your articles titled the “Main facts about the geography of Japan”.

To my great surprise, I found out that an article of yours have wrongly named the “East Sea” as the “Sea of Japan” in the pictures of your article.

The name of the sea between the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese archipelago, currently named as the “Sea of Japan” in your article, should be corrected to the “East sea”.

At present, as many international organizations including U.N. agencies have corrected “Sea of Japan” to “East sea”, I’d truly appreciate if your website could join this trend.

I would like to once again appreciate your time or reviewing my letter and will be more than honored to get reply from your university via my e-mail (yewonj0809@gmail.com).

Yours sincerely,
Ye-Won, Jung
