Today, CNN's online story is about 81-year-old Kim Sin-Yol's story of the only permanent resident of Dakdo or Takeshima Island. Because the two names of the island are named because they are in disputed territory, the two parties named it as their own will. Nobody calls anyone's name. As the ruler of the island, the claimant called South Korea, called Dakdo. Japan's name is Takeshima, another claimant on the island. 
It is said in the news that if the weather is bad, the island is separated from the week after week, from the world. There is abundance of fish in the water around the island (Sea of ​​Japan). Kim Sean was a free diver in profession. Locally, such professionals are called 'Heineiu'. He left his career in the year 2017 due to his illness. She became alone after her husband Kim Sung-Do died in October last year. Still he refused to leave the island.

The island has been under South Korean control since 1950. They kept the armed security guards there. According to the country, there are gas reserves below the island's oceans. 
However, there is a dispute between the two countries, but the location is closer to Korea's mainland than Japan and there is more to visit the Korean tourists.

The authorities did not allow many of the country's citizens to go to South Korea to establish domination of Dakdo Island. An official said that the island has only one arrangement to stay.
Although Kim Sin's body is now mostly bad, his daughter and son-in-law are planning to register as permanent resident on the island. Kim Kim received a business license from his father, inheriting his wife Kim Jinn. Using the license, he plans to sell stamps, soap and marine food to tourists. 
But there is something bigger than the opportunity for the Dakdo Island business in the family. Kim Kim Jinn said, "We can not even think of leaving Dakdo Island completely."
