change from "Sea of Japan" to "East Sea" in all history textbooks to educate young generations with correct information.

Created by D.D. on September 19, 2012

In history classes, students read history textbooks that contains false information. Textbook is a primary source of learning which should have correct history. It has been already 67 years since Korea was liberated from Japan. However, still, Japan refuses to give back the original identity of East Sea. Naming issues are very sensitive to any country; however, United States should remain committed to both alliances and respect the shared values between Republic of Korea and Japan. Please deeply consider about changing name from Sea of Japan to East Sea. Thank you very much!
