Dokdo issue


Today, there were two presentations. I would like to talk about one of them. It`s about Dokdo issue. Actually, Dokdo has always been a hot issue between Japan and Korea. Korea government insists that Dokdo belongs to Korea`s territory based on its history but Japan also insists that Dokdo is their island. So, this issue seems endless until one side gives up and Korea-Japan relationship is worsening due to the dispute over possession of Dokdo.

Actually, theses days, there is an increasing number of people in Korea who want to let all the people around the world know Dokdo is Korea`s territory and revise all the maps which are being marked Dokdo as Japan`s territory. Even some famous entertainers like Jang Hun Kim insisted on advertising Dokdo around the world and many people raised money to post Dokdo advertisements in The New York Times.

But, I don`t think it`s a good idea to announce Dokdo is our island. As Morgan said people are not interested in the matter of Dokdo`s owner. I totally agree with Morgan and I`m pretty sure that almost all people around the world do not care about Dokdo issue. said Only Korean and Japan are arguing each other. So, we don`t need to put much effort to advertise to them.

In my opinion, before we insist Dokdo is our territory The first thing we do is that we should know about Dokdo in details like why we should protect it and why it is so important to us. These days not only young people but also many other people say that Dokdo is Korea`s island not knowing the reason. They just keep saying that because other people do. I feel sorry for them. We must know about ourselves first. I mean our history and our territory. That`s the way to be a winner someday in the future.
