News about the article in the Japanese newspaper, “San-in Chuo Shimpo,” to which I submitted a Usando map debunking Korea’s claim on “Dokdo” (see a post on the article here), has found its way to “DreamWiz News,” a Korean news site. If you would like to read what “some” of Korea’s “netizens” are saying about it, you can find their comments at the following link:
미국 교수, 독도가 일본땅이라는 증거 지도를 제보 (2C)
Many of the comments are hateful comments against the Japanese and me, and almost all of them are negative and show an extreme degree of ignorance of the facts surrounding the Dokdo/Takeshima debate. However, there were a few comments from people who showed surprise at and interest in the map, though not many. Judging from the comments, it seems obvious to me that the Korean education system and the Korean media are doing a terrible job of explaining the geographical and historical facts of the debate.
