The purpose of this paper is to verify the Japanese Hachiemon(八右衛門)'s recognition on Ulleungdo and Dokdo by chase him of the central role in the Case of Tenpo-Takeshima-Ikken(天保竹島一件). There was least Japanese invasion to the islands of Ulleungdo·Dokdo after the event of Ahn Yong-bok. But Korean(Choseon) fishers continuously landed on the island and Japanese might have landed secretly on the islands to fish often. They should have smuggled secretly but the fact was not revealed until Hahiemon event breaking out. This paper revealed as follows. First, as known the purpose of Hachiemon to cross to Ulleungdo was logging trees on the island but his main activity on the island was to smuggle the products from Philippine, China, and Southeast Asia. Second, Hachiemon at the time crossed to Ulleungdo on the basis of Ohya(大谷) family map during the Kenroku period and he created new map. The map he used and submitted to the court during the Bafuku lawsuit explain the recognition of Hachiemon on Ulleungdo and Dokdo. The two maps also expressed the two island red color as the same color of Korean (Choseon) territory. This fact reflected the recognition of Japanese who have lived around Sanin region on the two islands.

This is the study on Ulleungdo Island researched two households of Japan in the 17th century. It was called the 『Jukdo Magazine』study.『Jukdo magazine』 recorded information confirmed and handed down on Ulleung Island in the middle of the 19th century. The work analysised 『Jukdo Magazine』. I wish the review which at the time the Japanese tried to recognition Ulleungdo and Dokdo through this study. First, the purpose of 『Jukdo Magazine』 written to extend as Japanese territory on Ulleungdo Island because there are many products which are not produced in Japan. Second, Jukdo is near by the Joseon Dynasty rather than Japan. But the Japanese thought Ulleungdo Island is Japanese territory because Japanese went to Ulleungdo Island to take license from Tokugawa for 70 years. The status of Ulleung island by lack of territory by the Tokugawa became Joseon's territory. two families of Oya and Murakawa went to Edo against the decision of the Tokugawa for a voyage again. Third, 『Jukdo magazine』is evident of Dokdo territory because Ulleung Island in the same vicinity as Dokdo.

I observed Japan's regional culture policy in terms of Hokkaido's culture policy. As a case in point for Japan's regional culture policy, I categorized the island's culture policy into its establishment and development. Hokkaido has established and developed the culture policy from the 1990's ardently when Japan's regional policy has begun unfolding at full throttle. In 1994 prefectures enacted Hokkaido Culture Promotion Act, regulating culture policy on the whole relatively early. Then they appropriated Hokkaido Culture Promotion Guidelines, leading to detailed administrative plans and eventual establishment of the culture policy. Besides, they appropriated and implemented yearly culture promotion measures in order to execute the established culture policy. Concretely put, they have been implementing 90 businesses with regard to 7 items of culture promotion guideline out of Hokkaido Culture Promotion Act and 14 items concretely suggested in Hokkaido Culture Promotion Guidelines. Under this circumstances Hokkaido Culture Review Committee brought attention to three problematic areas: Firstly the planned businesses can not be sufficiently executed because of budget cuts. Secondly, because the culture policy has not been reviewed on the whole, creativity is desired for the policy. Lastly, the policy lags behind current Japanese regional culture policy, because it barely strikes a core with industry policies. These are unavoidable obstacles to surmount in order for Hokkaido to realize its banner pledges: creation of regional culture and construction of everyday cultural sphere.
