Korea's Island Dokdo

Dokdo, the easternmost territory of Korea, is very meaningful to Koreans. It is mainly composed of two islets and the total area is about 187,450 square meters. Today, Dokdo remains as a place of heated disputation in between Korea and Japan. Although, there are strong historical evidence and records that Dokdo is indisputably Korean territory since the 6th Century, Japan now insists that Dokdo is Japanese territory called Takeshima. The purpose of this blog is to spread the awareness of Dokdo.
