Korean island "Dokdo" is a clearly Korean territory. Historically, Korea has been taking full control over Dokdo for 1500 years except the Japanese Occupation Period(1910~1945).
Then you may wonder why Japan claimed that Dokdo belonged to Japan?
Unfortunately, when a country dominates another, the main thing lost is the territory. Such was the case of Korea, when Korea was occupied by Japan (1910~1945).
However, After the Second World War, Korea, being liberated from Japan, recovered its territory, including Dokdo. In spite of that history, Japan claimed that Dokdo belonged to Japan distorting historical facts. It's because of Japan's hidden policy of imperialistic expansion.
We cannot sit back and watch Japan justify its history of aggression and colonization and pursue hegemonic power, because the issue concerns the future of the Korean Peninsula and Northeast Asia.
If international society pays no attention and connives about Japan's hidden policy of imperialistic expansion, It would pose a great obstacle to amicable relations between all the family of Asia and Japan in the 21st century.
