8 In the late 19th century, Korean government NEVER clearly
marks
Ulleungdo
and Liancourt Rocks(Takeshima/Dokdo)
as its territories.
Anyway, check by yourself its own
location, distance and figure.
It is clear that Usan on 大韓全図 and 大韓與地図
is Ulleungdo’s Jukdo
Usan on those maps are never Liancourt Rocks.

See the 大韓全図 and 大韓與地図. The Ulleungdo’s description is quite similar with typical detail map of Ulleungdo.
Usando
on two maps above are just a simplified design from Typical
detail maps of Ullunegdo series.
Cutout of Ulleungdo
and Usan, Cmpare between Usan and Ulleungdos Jukdo.

Also same design with 江原道圖,attached with 大韓地誌1899.1901.1906
1899.大韓全圖

On this map, Liancourt Rocks is no described. Usan is surely Ulluengdo’s Jukdo.
1900.大韓與地圖
On this map, Liancourt Rocks is no described. Usan is surely Ulluengdo’s Jukdo.
Ulleoungdo
and Ulluengdo’s Jukdo.

most prominent adjunctive
