    "The rocks, which are fertile seal breeding grounds, were at one time part of the Kingdom of Korea. They were annexed together with the remaining territory of Korea when Japan extended its Empire over the former Korean State. However, during the course of this imperial control, the Japanese Government formally incorporated this territory into the metropolitan area of Japan and placed it administratively under the control of one of the Japanese prefectures. Therefore, when Japan agreed in Article II of the peace treaty to renounce "all right, title and claim to Korea, including the islands of Quelliat, Port Hamilton, and Dagelet," the drafters of the treaty did not include these islands within the area to be renounced. Japan has, and with reason, assumed that its sovereignty still extends over these islands. For obvious reasons, the Koreans have disputed this assumption."

    "There therefore exists a fair chance that some time in the near future American bombs may cause loss of life or other incidents which will bring the Korean efforts to recapture these islands into more prominent play,...."

  • 1954 - Report of the Van Fleet Mission to the Far East
    "The Island of Dokto (otherwise called Liancourt and Take Shima) is in the Sea of Japan approximately midway between Korea and Honshu (131.80E, 36.20N). This Island is, in fact, only a group of barren, uninhabited rocks. When the Treaty of Peace with Japan was being drafted, the Republic of Korea asserted its claims to Dokto but the United States concluded that they remained under Japanese sovereignty and the Island was not included among the Islands that Japan released from its ownership under the Peace Treaty. The Republic of Korea has been confidentially informed of the United States position regarding the islands but our position has not been made public. Though the United States considers that the islands are Japanese territory, we have declined to interfere in the dispute. Our position has been that the dispute might properly be referred to the International Court of Justice and this suggestion has been informally conveyed to the Republic of Korea."

Wikipedia Switches from "Dokdo" to "Liancourt Rocks"

Last week, Korea's Chosun Ilbo warned Korean "netizens" that there was a vote being taken at the online encyclopedia "Wikipedia" to use the name "Liancourt Rocks" instead of "Dokdo" as the name of the article describing the dispute between Japan and Korea over a small group of rocky islets in the Sea of Japan. (See the Wikipedia article here.) You can find a translation of the Chosun Ilbo article here.

Even though the Chosun Ilbo article seemed to have mobilized a great many Korean netizens to go to the Wikipedia site to try to influence the vote, it appears their efforts were in vain because when I checked the Wikipedia site this morning, I noticed that "Liancourt Rocks" had replaced "Dokdo" as the name of the article describing the dispute. Now, even if you type "Dokdo" in the search window at the site, you are directed to the "Liancourt Rocks" article.

I think it was a good decision on the part of Wikipedia since "Liancourt Rocks" is a more neutral name than "Dokdo," the Korean name for the islets. The Japanese name for the islets is "Takeshima." Even though I believe that Japan is the rightful owner of the islets, I think Liancourt Rocks should be used until the dispute is settled.

Dokdo Residents Talk about the Islets

The following is a May 29 article in the Korean newspaper Hankyoreh. Here is my translation:

"Dokdo is not lonely...Here until we die"

Village Head Kim Seong-do and his wife Kim Sin-yeol attending a 1-day "Dokdo Discussion" at Gyeongil University

"The Dokdo village head has come to college."

Dokdo Village head and only permanent resident Kim Seong-do (67 - on the right), together with his wife Kim Sin-yeol (69 - on the left), came ashore on the 29th after being invited to be special lecturer for a day at a "Dokdo Discussion" lecture at Gyeongil University in Gyeongsan city.

The university's Department of Land Registration invited Dokdo Village Head Kim and his wife, together with Dokdo Volunteer Force member Oh Yun-gil and his wife Yun Mi-jeong, to the school and conducted the "Dokdo Stories of the People Who Love Dokdo" with more than fifty of the school's students.

Coming ashore after more than seven months, Mr. Kim Seong-do said, "The drinking water supply equipment started operationg fifteen days ago, so our worries about water have been alleviated." He added, "Before I had to spend a lot of time climbing to the top of the mountain peak on the west island to draw water at a place called "Mulgoli" [water trough], but there was not much, so I had to go without washing my face for twenty days once. That answer got a laugh. Mr. Kim also said, "The Dokdo ureok [a kind of mollusk], which was famous for its size, has become extinct." He added, " The tropical fish kodom (Dokdo sea bream) has been fished so much they are now like beans growing during a drought." He said, "So many "ghost fishing" traps have been set in the waters around Dokdo that it is ruining the fishing grounds in the area." He said that authorities needed to establish some kind of measure to regulate the fish trapping.

Mr. Kim said, "Recently, interest in Dokdo has grown, so there are now so many visitors and people involved in contructing various facilities coming and going that Dokdo is no longer lonely." He said, "Dokdo has been a part of my life for forty years, so it is now my second home. I plan to continue living the way I have until my body gives out."

In a Yonhap News article of the event, which can be found on the KBS News site here, Mr. Kim also talked about the difficulties of tying up to the dock on Dokdo.
Especially, in regard to the docking facilities on Dokdo, Mr. Kim said, "They
have built docking facilities, but when the waves are high, docking is impossible, even though you are close enough to stare at each other. It makes me sad when I see boats having to turn away."
I found the interview interesting because Mr. Kim confirmed the lack of drinking water on Dokdo and the difficulty of docking there. Also, it also sounds like the Korean government is doing a lousy job of protecting the surrounding enviroment.

"Shimane Prefecture Research Committee Report 'Takeshima is Japanese Land'"

In a May 29 article, SBS News reported the following:

"Shimane Prefecture Research Committee Report 'Takeshima is Japanese Land'"

Kyoto News Service has reported that the Takeshima Problem Reseach
Committee, which was set up by Japan's Shimane Prefecture to research the history of Takeshima, has submitted its final report to the prefecture. The report says, "Takeshima is Japanese land."

The news service reported that in the report the research committee
recommended that the government create an organization to solve the problem because the Takeshima problem is related to the history problem between Korean and Japan.

The research committee also said that the contents of the report would be posted on Shimane Prefecture's Web site this fall to get feedback from the people living in the prefecture.

Searching for Solutions or Cheerleaders?

The following Jungbu Ilbo article, "Inha University, Int'l Academic Conference in Search of Solutions for Dokdo Problem" was written the day before the May 28th conference. Here is my translation:

"Inha University, Int'l Academic Conference in Search of Solutions for Dokdo Problem"

On the 27th, Inha University announced that, together with Northeast Asia History Foundation (Chairman Kim Yong-deok), it would hold an international academic conference on the topic "Towards a Framework for the Resolution of the Territorial Dispute between Korea and Japan over the [sic] Dokdo"at the Seoul Grand Hilton Hotel on the 28th

Larry A. Niksch, Asia Expert at the US Congessional Library; Jon M. Van Dyke, Professor of Law at Hawaii University in the US; and Kentaro Serita, Professor of Law at Aichi-gakuin University in Japan, will attend the conference and present papers entitled, "The Korean-Japanese Territorial Dispute as Part of Korean-Japanese Estrangement," "A Study of the Legal Issues Related to Sovereignty over Dok-Do," and "Historical Changes in Use of the Seas and an Island."

Professor Van Dyke, especially, considers the Korea's exercise of sovereignty and historical evidence to be stronger than Japan's. He is expected to assert that it is necessary for Korea to exert greater effort in voicing her claims to international law institutions.

Hong Seung-yong, president of Inha University, said, "Though they differ in their preceptions and the way they arrive at their conclusions, this conference is important in that all the international scholars insist that Korea's sovereignty over Dokdo be recognized."

Yes, I guess in Korea it is important to know the conclusion of a conference before it even begins, especially when you expect all the international scholars to agree that Korea's sovereignty over Dokdo should be recognized.

Welcome Message

Welcome to my blog.

This blog was created to provide a forum for sharing information and for discussing current and historical issues related to the dispute between Japan and Korea over Liancourt Rocks, which are a small grouping of rocky islets in the Sea of Japan. Japanese refer to the islets as "Takeshima" while Koreans refer to them as "Dokdo." All views are welcome, and comments may be made in any language, but personal attacks, foul language, and comments dealing with unrelated issues will be unwelcome and may be deleted. The goal is civil discussion and debate.

So far I have only created a frame for the blog, but I will slowly be filling it in as time goes on. The goal of the blog is not just to discuss and debate the issues, but also to collect and organize the old documents and maps related to the issues. That means I may be reposting things that some people may have already seen.

If you have any suggestions or have any good links to old documents or maps, please let me know by using the "Suggestion Box," which can be found on the right side of the page under the "Labels" category. If there are many suggestions, I may have to create a new suggestion box for each new month. I'll will just wait and see.

I hope this blog helps encourage healthy discussion and debate on the Dokdo/Takeshima Issue.

Sincerely,

Gerry Bevers

Japanese Map of Ulleungdo, Date Unknown

The map on the left is a Japanese Map of Ulleungdo that is believed to have been made in the late Edo Period (1603 - 1869). The map is the property of the Sanin History Museum in Yonago City of Tottori Prefecture, where it is stored and displayed.

To enlarge the map, click on it twice. The first click will enlarge it to a certain extent, but it is the second click that makes it large enough to be readable.





I would like to thank Kaneganese for sending me the above scanned copy of the map, and I would like to thank the Sanin History Museum in Yonago City for giving me permission to post the map on this site.

The Korean map posted below is called the Cheonggudo (靑邱圖 - 청구도). It was made by Kim Jeong-ho (金正浩). It is the largest of Korea's old maps still in existence at 8.7 meters tall and 4.62 meters wide.

The map is made of hundreds of individual sheets of ruled paper panels. It is twenty-two panels wide and twenty-nine panels high.



The height of each panel represents a unit measure of 100 Korean ri, and the width of each panel represents a unit measure of seventy Korean ri. One Korean ri is equivalent to 400 meters (0.4 kilometers).



The scale of the map is about 1/216,000th of actual size.



Each panel has a 10-segment rule for the height and a 7-segment rule for the width. Each segment represents a distance of ten ri. Two panels are used to rpresent Ulleungdo (鬱陵島) and its neighboring island of Usan (于山 - 우산).



The above panel shows the west coast of Ulleungdo.



The above panel shows the east coast of Ulleungdo.



Notice that the small island off the east coast of Ulleungdo is labeled "Usan" (于山), which is an abbreviation of Usando (于山島 - 우산도). The map shows Usando to be about ten ri off of Ulleungdo's east shore since there is about one segment distance between Ulleungdo and Usan. Ten ri would be about four kilometers, which means that the Usan on the map was almost certainly Ulleungdo's neighboring island of Jukdo (竹島 - 죽도), which is about 2.2 kilometers off Ulleungdo's east shore. The writing below Usan translates as follows:
“In the 11th year of Yeongjo (1735), Gangwon Provincial Governor Jo Choi-su
reported to the king: ‘A survey of Ulleungdo has found that the land is wide and
fertile, and there are signs that people once lived there. Also, to its west is
Usando, which is also wide and spacious.’ The so-called “west” character is
different on this map, where (Usando) is to the east.
Koreans usually claim that Usando was the old name for present-day "Dokdo" (Liancourt Rocks), but the above map clearly shows that Usando was the old name for Ulleungdo's neighboring island of Jukdo, which is about 2.2 kilometers off of Ulleungdo's east shore.

The following graphic shows that the Usan on the above map was almost certainly Ulleungdo's neighboring island of Jukdo (竹島), not Dokdo (Liancourt Rocks), which the Japanese presently refer to as Takeshima (竹島). The fact that Koreans use the same Chinese characters to refer to Ulleungdo's neighboring island of Jukdo as the Japanese use to refer to Takeshima (Liancourt Rocks) may be part of the reason for the present-day confusion.



The Cheonggudo is currently located at Seoul National University's Kyujanggak (규장각) Museum. Here is a link to the museum's Web site, which is excellent:
