As long as the map doesn’t include Parangdo.

[...] -South Korea has agreed to add the disputed Dokdo islets to it’s unity flag, which is used when the South/North Korean combined team attends international sporting events. It’s great to see the Koreas working together to stir up nationalist hatred of Japan, isn’t it? [...]

I think I figured out why all the other Korean islands (other than Cheju) are missing - the map represents Korea after the polar ice caps melt due to global warming. Although what we know of as Dokdo now would almost certainly be covered by water deep enough to cover most of Korea’s other islands, the Korean government intends to actually make Dokdo tall enough not to go completely underwater. Why, you ask? Well, so that they can keep fighting about them with Japan.

I’m not sure if I mentioned it before but both North Korea and South Korea released Dokdo postage stamps.
