Abstract
Takeshima Bunwa, a collection of epistolary discussions on Ulleungdo between Suyama Shoemon, Hanshi of Tsushima, and Kishima Hyosuke, a fellow Hanshi from Tsushima, confirms that Tsushima was certain that Korea had more convincing historical sources proving that Ulleungdo is Korean territory and that Ulleungdo and Dokdo constitute a unitary territory. Dokdo is not subject to contention as Japan claims, and because Ulleungdo is a representation of Dokdo as a liveable space, Ulleungdo-Dokdo is the proper name for the Korean territory.
