[Conclusion of argument of Dokdo Island problem between Korea and Japan]

Foreigners will be able to comprehend from this report that the assertions of
the Dokdo conflict between Korea and Japan are very different from one another.

Korea claims that the recording that states that Shilla's General ???(Isabu), who appeared
in ????(Samguk Sagi), occupied ???(Usan-guk) is the evidence that Dokdo was occupied
by Shilla in 512. On the other hand, Japan claims that Dokdo Island was never included
in ???(Usan-guk). Moreover, Japan publicly opposed Korean's assertion that ‘???(Usan-do)’
is the past name of present-day Dokdo Island, and claims that ‘???(Usan-do)’ is the post name
of present-day ???(Ulleung-do).

Japan claims that they started fishery for the first time around Dokdo when no one live there
(around the beginning of the 17th century), and established its dominance of the island
in the middle of the 17th century. They presented the license given to Japanese fishermen
in 1618 that gave them permision to legally cross the sea around Ulleungdo as an evidence
supporting their stand on the Dokdo issue. Moreover, they mentioned that issuing the license
to cross the sea also means that sovereignty over Dokdo was Japan's.
However, Korea claims that Japan is interpreting this matter from a one-sided view,
and presented many documents and maps of Japanese government that indicated Dokdo Island
is the territory of Joseon as evidence.
Also both countries have different ideas about ???(An Yong-bok), who got the written oath
that Dokdo Island is the territory of Joseon from the viceroy of Oki Island of
Japan as an ordinary fisherman. In Korea, ???(An Yong-bok) was informed as a guardian or patritot
who protected Dokdo. In Japan, however, ???(An Yong-bok) was known as the root of all evil.
Japan insist that ???(An Yong-bok) fabricated all the comments about Dokdo while being
in a position of a prisoner. However, the record about the party of ???(An Yong-bok)
arriving at the Japanese coast shows that ???(An Yong-bok) never fabricated anything.

Using the unfair documentary record of the command 41 practiced in 1900 that ascertained
the property right of Dokdo to be Japan's with an official name of Seokdo,
Japan tries not to admit Dokdo as a Korean island. However, the name Seokdo(rock island)
itself was actually a Korean dialect used in Ulleungdo to refer to Dokdo.
But, Japan still does not accept this inevitable fact, and keeps on asserting that
Japan gained Dokdo in 1905 through the Shimane Command.

Also, quoting that Dokdo was not mentioned in the San Francisco Treaty, Japan claims that
Dokdo was excluded from the category of the properties that needed to be returned.
Moreover, Japan says that other countries including the United States had admitted
Japan's property right for Dokdo. Although it is wrong to deny that Dokdo was not
mentioned in the San Francisco Treaty, this happened only because of Japan's continuous lobbying.
The assertion that other nations admit Japan's rights about Dokdo is totally baseless:
recent records and documents firmly prove that there had never been any admittance about
the Japan's property right from other countries.
