Five million Samsung Galaxy III a month!

Croatian writer Giancarlo Kravar: Five million Smartphones Samsung Galaxy III began to produce South Korea's Samsung, the largest mobile phone manufacturer in the world.

Do not equate a private company with the country. If you want to update contents for Samsung Electronics, and leave your comment on the company's talk page. Wikipedia isn't a forum, and the talk page should be used to discuss on how to improve the article. Anyway, many thanks for your comments, --- PBJT (talk) 01:52, 20 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

about Dokdo / Takeshima　Comfort woman

Please see the video was created using historical primary source material. Please assess the facts and well.

Dokudo/Takeshima

South Korea says "Dokdo" Takeshima is not,that of the small island to the west of Ulleungdo called "Jukdo". This month, South Korean President has landed. South Korea is now and has been sent to the army Takeshima. However, Takeshima is Japanese territory historically also international. Some of them are multiplied by the pressure to come to know it yet. Will be arrested Koreans are brainwashed Takeshima and Dokdo from infancy, and point out a mistake in Korea. Takeshima is Japanese Territory. Does there exist any old Korean map which depicted Dokdo?

Comfort woman

"Korean women were forced to the war front to serve the Imperial Japanese Army as sexual slaves, called comfort women." This is not true. Was investigated over the years by the Japanese government, the evidence that the women forced draft has not been discovered. Asahi Shimbun reported that when a lie, I have field survey at a university in Japan and South Korea, was not found even one person. Testimony of women themselves as "former comfort women" also is the first "I am. Was sold to (Okiya say in Japan) Kenban Kisen some of Pyongyang at the age of 14 by the mother" was, forced draft to the Japanese soldiers for some reason and changed. The three rolling forward the testimony of two forced draft that can not be trusted at all.

Orphaned references in South Korea

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of South Korea's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
