Korean Request
Three demands from the South Korean government to the U.S. government were as follows:
- Provide that Japan "confirm that it renounced on August 9, 1945, all right, title and claim to Korea and the islands which were part of Korea prior to its annexation by Japan, including the island Quelpart, Port Hamilton, Dagelet, Dokdo and Parangdo."
- The legal transfer of vested properties of Japanese in Korea to Korea and the United States Military Government in Korea.
- Admit the continuation of the MacArthur Line in the Treaty of San Francisco.

Famous quotes containing the word request:
“Were all the worshippers of the gold calf to memorialize me and request a restoration of the deposits I would cut my right hand from my body before I would do such an act. The gold calf may be worshipped by others but as for myself I serve the Lord.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
