I like both of them. The second does look better though.

The source at Occi doesn’t work Peter, is there any other places with the pic? Just asking ’cause that site has used doctored photos before.

Anyway, glad they changed the pic, though I think the flag and ship are ok, the chopper is awkward though.

Better. But they really should make it more abstract. Cut out the helicopter. Make the ship simpler and not be a long stick that goes outside the circle. Maybe even take out the ship - replace it with some symbol or other. The flag doesn’t need to be photorealistic. Take out those wrinkles. If English need be there, get someone who can make it sound less dumb.

Depending on the role of the Dokdo, they could also have said, “Sea Command.”

Typical! Incorrect use of the determiner. (Or lack thereof.) Lead THE Fleet, Command THE Sea. Project Power is good though. (As long as the stress is correct.)

Maybe “ROKS Dokdo” would look/read better than “Republic of Korea Ship Dokdo”, but nothing too strange about the English. Anyway, I think the new logo looks pretty sharp.

Nevermind, now see the small print…

I don’t think “ROK Ship Dokdo” should be considered Konglish.

“I like that new one, I actually do.”

Good for you.
