  "summary": "The Korea Times reported on Sunday that promotional footage of a massive Korean flag, measuring 30 by 20 meters, was unveiled on Dokdo Island to commemorate Dokdo Day. The footage, captured via drone, showed the Taegeukgi flag being unfurled by 70 Koreans at a pier on the island. The video also included images of Dokdo Island in the East Sea and a call for foreigners to visit as part of a global promotional campaign for the territory. Korea maintains that Dokdo is its historical, geographical, and legally recognized territory, rejecting Japan's claim to the islets. A small police detachment remains on Dokdo to demonstrate the country's effective control over the area.",
