Many foreign embassies in Seoul have maps on their websites showing the Dokdo islets as the “Liancourt Rocks” and the East Sea as the “Sea of Japan,” a study finds. The Daegu and North Gyeongsang Province chapters of the Justice Party held a press conference at their Daegu office on the morning of Feb. 11 to announce the findings. “We examined 17 websites for foreign embassies with maps and found that all but one of them listed Dokdo and the East Sea in a way that is favorable to Japan,” they announced. They went on to urge Seoul to take action on the matter.
