Dear RTÉ staff,

Hello. I’m So-eon Park, a student of Hana Academy Seoul in the Republic of Korea.

Thank you for the interesting articles that you provide.

However, I found a error in articles <North Korea fires ballistic missile into Sea of Japan>, <North Korea threatens Japan with 'real ballistic missile'> and more, so I would like to ask for your correction.

I hope you correct 'Sea of Japan' to 'East Sea'. If it is difficult to replace, I suggest a method of marking at the same time.

‘East Sea’ is used for 2,000 years, and about 75 million people are using that name today. According to the United Nations, the International Hydrographic Organization and other international organizations, ‘marking at the same time’ is recommended if the parties fail to agree on a single name for the terrain they share. Therefore, I ask you again to mark 'East Sea' and 'Sea of Japan' at the same time.

I hope that the error in some articles will be corrected. If you do not mind, could you send me a reply with your opinion to this e-mail address, please?

Thank you for reading this e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

So-eon Park
