A while ago, while surfing the internet, I happened to visit your company¡¯s animal planet blog and viewed a news written years ago.
http://blogs.discovery.com/animal_news/2009/07/gigantic-jellyfish-invade-the-sea-of-japan.html
To my great surprise, I found out that ¡®East Sea¡¯ is wrongly named ¡®Sea of Japan¡¯ while looking into maps of Asia. Therefore, I am writing to ask you to correct it to ¡®East Sea¡¯.
The name, ¡®East Sea¡¯, has been used most frequently for the world maps made in the West since 16th century when western countries started an oriental exploration in earnest. It was named ¡®Sea of Japan¡¯ by IHO (International Hydrographic Organization) in 1929 when Korea was still under the Japanese colonial rule, but in 1957, Korea joined IHO, and since 1992, Korea has made objections to its incorrect name, ¡®Sea of Japan¡¯, in international conferences, including IHO Conference and UN-related conferences, further having the effect of spreading its correct name to the global community. At present, as many international organizations including U. N. agencies have corrected ¡®Sea of Japan¡¯ to ¡®East Sea¡¯.
Although the news was written years ago, I'd truly appreciate if the Discovery.com could edit the news and join this trend.
I am sincerely looking forward to seeing you correct the wrong name in the Asian map, and I am sure that millions of Korea visitors to your website, including me, will see such a change with constant interest and affection.
