공존의 지혜가 필요한 미래의 땅
Gando - land of the future where the wisdom to live in harmony is needed The issue of Gando(間島) was a hot topic in Korea during 2009, when it marked the centennial of the signing of the Gando Convention. There were widespread rumors that sovereignty claims can no longer be made after the centennial of the signing of convention. However, international law community discovered that there is no prescription to sovereignty claims. Since then, study on and interest in Gando, which is now part of China's Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture, has diminished to a large extent. People call this piece of land Yanbian or Yanji(延吉), and think that it belongs to China. Our territory, Gando, is being forgotten.

Exploring What Lies at the Heart of the Dokdo Issue A new book on Dokdo titled "Dokdo 1947" was published in August 2010, widening our horizons for the Dokdo issue by shedding a light on the relations among Korea, U.S. and Japan. Focusing on the events during the year 1947 and the three nations' dynamics until 1951, the book explores what lies at the heart of the Dokdo issue and adds momentum to resolving this issue. The author, Professor Jeong Byeong-jun received "Dokdo Protection Prize (독도수호상)" at the "Dokdo Research Awards Ceremony (독도연구상 시상식)" held by the Northeast Asian History Foundation. Taking this opportunity, we met Professor Jeong for an interview.

2011년 동계 동아시아사 교원연수 동아시아사 역사 교육의 길
2011 Winter Training Program for Teachers of East Asian History The Path for East Asian History Education At the end of each year, teachers ask themselves: Did I try my best to teach my students well this year? Will I be able to teach new students well next year? We get particularly anxious when curriculum change is scheduled next year. It was the case when the government announced on December 17, 2009 that a new subject, "East Asian History", will be adopted as one of the elective history courses as part of "the 2009 revised curriculum."

3·1운동을 지지한 일본의 지식인 요시노 사쿠조
Yoshino Sakuzo - Japanese activist who advocated the March 1 Independence Movement of Korea March 1st is just around the corner. The March 1st Independence Movement was indeed a milestone in Korean history, which not only gave us confidence but also showed the world our strong will and determination to achieve independence on our own. This year marks the 92nd anniversary of the movement, and to this day, the March 1st Independence Movement offers us with new perspectives and food for thought.

미국에서 한국지키기
Preserving Korean culture and traditions in the U.S. In February 10, more than 500 students and citizens gathered at New York University (NYU)'s Kimmel Center in Manhattan. Most of them were Asians, but there were also a number of Caucasians, African Americans, and Latin Americans. Regardless of race and nationality, everyone there mingled with each other, kicking around a "jegi", playing "yut" and eating "tteokguk". It seemed that the event was organized by the City of New York for Asian Americans.

홋카이도에서 만난 동아시아의 평화
Getting a glimpse of peaceful East Asia in Hokkaido It was February, and it was warmer than I thought in Hokkaido. The first impression of Hokkaido was that it felt dazzling and soft. Maybe it is because of the white snow that blanketed the whole world. I went to Hokkaido along with 25 history teachers and 30 experts and staff, and our visit was part of the workshop titled "Hokkaido – the land of Diaspora – and East Asia". The workshop was planned to offer history teachers with firsthand experience and field trips in advance of introduction of a new subject, "East Asian History", in 2012. A hundred and forty years ago, a group of Japanese were forced to move to Hokkaido and develop the region, which was inhabited by an indigenous people called Ainu. Also, more than 110,000 Joseon people were sent there when Korea was under Japanese colonial rule, and there were Chinese, too. Here in Hokkaido, teachers and citizens from Korea and Japan gathered together and envisioned a peaceful East Asia.
