Lee Jung-jin Joins Campaign to Protect Dokdo Islets

According to the production company of the movie "Mapado", actor Lee Jung-jin will participate in an event on March 25 aimed at protecting the Dokdo Islets. The idea of holding the event was proposed by the cast of the movie "Mapado" as part of the nation's efforts to protect the islets recently claimed by Japan.

Actor Kim Eul-dong, who plays a lead role in the movie, said that he hoped the movie will inspire the Korean people to defend Dokdo, just like elderly women defended the picturesque island of Mapado in the past. At the event, the movie's cast members, including Lee and Kim, will present their opinions about the Dokdo issue to the audience.

All proceeds from the event will be donated to funding the Dokdo Coastguard. Messages written by visitors at the event will be delivered to the Japanese embassy in Korea.
