13/10 Resources 4 : Rhee Line (Peace Line) The Korean Government ’ s declaration of “ Peace Line ” in January 1952 was followed by repetitive diplomatic and military disputes between Kor ea and Japan for the possession of Dokdo. When the Korean War broke out, the Korean Government could no longer spare their forces to prote ct Dokdo from Japan. It was the Dokdo Royal Defense Team that defend ed Dokdo from the invasive intrusion of Japan. They fought over 50 batt les to protect Dokdo over a period of three years and eight months. Tha nks to their somewhat reckless devotion, Dokdo has remained a territor y of Korea and under the administration of the Korean Government unti l today. Topic 2. Dokdo is the territory of South Korea

14/10 Resources 5 : Treaty of San Francisco Dokdo is annexed island to Uleungdo, to record just Uleungdo is that they recog nized its annexed island Dokdo as a Korean territory automatically. As the same li ne, Jejudo for example, has annexed island Udo and just to reocrd Jejudo is that its annexed island Udo is automatically included as a Korean territory as well. Th us, the fact that thousands of Korean islands were not specifically named in the peace treaty should not and does not mean they became the territories of Japan by default. Moreover, since 『 Agreement Respecting the Disposition of Former Japanese Ter ritories 』 (1950) drafted in preparation for the San Francisco Treaty, stated Dokd o as a ‘ Korean territory ’ in substantive enactment, although Dokdo was not mentioned in San Francisco Peace Treaty, you can say that Dokdo was recognize d as a Korean territory. Accordingly, Dokdo clearly belongs to Korea under international law, and the int ernational society except Japan has shared the same view. Topic 2. Dokdo is the territory of South Korea

15/10 Topic 3. Dokdo is conflict area of between Japan and South Korea

16/10 [condensation] The conflict that Dokdo is the conflict area of between Japan an d South Korea has been still continuing because of the different sides of the argument based on different views. Topic 3. Dokdo is conflict area of between Japan and South Korea

17/10 Resourses 1: Korea-Japan argument( 한 일 협정 ) 첫째, 독도 는 앞으 로 대한민국과 일 본 모두 자 국 의 영 토 라 고 주 장 한 다. 이에 반론 하는 것 에 이의를 제 기하지 않 는다. 둘째, 장 래 에 어업구역 을 설 정할 경우 양국 이 독도 를 자 국 영 토로 하는 선 을 획정 하고, 두 선 이 중복 되는 부분 은 공동 수 역으 로 한 다. 셋째, 현재 대한민국 이 ' 점거 ' 한 현상 을 유 지 한 다. 그러 나 경비원 을 증강 하 거 나 새 로 운 시설의 건축 이나 증축 은 하지 않 는다. 넷째, 양국 은 이 합 의를 계속 지 켜 나 간 다. The agreement did not mention Dokdo. Therefore Dokdo ownership is for everyone Topic 3. Dokdo is conflict area of between Japan and South Korea

18/10 In my opinion, Japan ’ s argument has significant errors. Considering historical background, Korea's sovereignty insist that Dokdo is the territory of Korea. Unfortunately, South Korea government did not treat i t appropriately to defense from Japanese approach. We need to know what it is going on and how we dea r it considering history background. Dokdo(takeshima) problem, my conculsion.
