the island is called dokdo in korea and takeshime in japan ( 1 island which 2 different names)
The East Sea. There have been fierce debates over names and ownership of places in this region between South Korea and Japan, most significantly the Dokdo/Takeshima islands, which both nations claim as their own.
Japan never took Liancourt Rocks, also known as Dokdo or Tokto in Korean and Takeshima in Japanese. The island is administered by South Korea and has been since 1954, though there continues to be contention between Japan and Korea over which country Laincort Rocks belongs to.
Sea of Okhotsk to the north, Pacific on the east, Sea of Japan on the west, Pacific on the south. →Hello, I'm Korean. While I just searching on the internet, I discovered an error, therefore I modify this answer. The sea which is around Japan is 'East sea' of Korea, not 'Sea of Japan'. South Korea and Japan have been fighting over the Dokdo Islets in the East Sea for some time. However, there are few things we have to talk about! East sea is a sea of Korea sea, Japan is distorting our and their history. So please know that the sea is not 'Sea of Japan', it is 'East sea', thank you! :-)
Ever since 1951, when North Korea invaded South Korea.
North & South Korea
This has been a controversial issue for Japan and Korea for over 60 year's and yet still are fighting over the volcanic island Takenshima. Maybe one day they can resolve this by agreeing to compromise the land and make it 50/50 between the both of them..
Yes, in 2002. South Korea and Japan hosted the world cup
Yes japan have been to the world cup. They even hoisted the world cup along with S/ Korea in 2002.
Korea has been copying Japan for century's now. From Anime, Music, Pop, food,Snacks, Traditions,Culture, products, and almost about everything else and anything else you can think of. Korea has copied Japan in it all. Korea is literally copying Japan in every way imaginable. From Fashion to designer, clothing, style. Korea has taken and has stolen the identity of Japan. ~Resource~ Japanese/Korean Has lived in Both Japan and Korea for more then a year. Ps~Korea just imitates Japan in everything and claims it as there own. I find that rather lame and a lack of creativity and self standard. Koreans sicken me. I am ashamed to be Korean because there just the copy of Japan and just the artificial fake version of Japan.
North Korea had been urged into invading South Korea by Soviet's (Russia's) Joseph Stalin. Stalin supplied MIG-15 jet fighters, T-34 tanks, and tons of Soviet Artillery and small arms, along with ammunition and fuel for the war machines. Korea has been "NOT BLESSED" by being geographically located between warring nations nearly all of it's existence; China, Russia, and Japan. Again, due to Korea's location, the conflicts involving those countries have led to easy access by outside nations such as Germany, France, or the United States, due to Korea being a peninsula, thus allowing ANY nation to reach Korea by SEA. If Korea had been a "Land Locked Country", any fighting would be RESTRICTED to the surrounding nations. But the peninsula of Korea is open to any nation with a navy. Korea was a colony of Japan prior to WW2. WW2 brought the Soviets into war with Japan which involved Korea. Japan's defeat in WW2 enabled the Soviets (Russians) to occupy NORTH KOREA; while the US/Allies preserved South Korea. When Joseph Stalin died in 1953, the Korean War ended by Armistice (in 1953).
