The Japan Meteorological Agency marked Dokdo as Japanese territory on the tsunami forecast map.

Seo Kyung-duk, a professor at Sungshin Women's University, said on his SNS on the 29th, "It is a problem because Dokdo is always marked as Japanese territory on earthquake-related maps provided by the Japan Meteorological Agency."

"This time again, when marking the tsunami forecast area, Dokdo was painted blue like Oki Island, Japan, and marked Dokdo as if it were Japanese territory," he pointed out.Professor

Seo said, "The Japanese Meteorological Agency has marked Dokdo as 'Takeshima' (the name of Dokdo claimed by Japan)," adding, "In the event of an earthquake, tsunami, and typhoon warnings, many Japanese netizens visit the Korea Meteorological Administration site, which can lead to a misconception about Dokdo."

Also, foreign media and Korean media often report on the map of the Japan Meteorological Administration, he added, "We have continued to protest due to the use of photographs marked with Japanese soil, but it has not been corrected."
