Please refer to Chris Wood's letter to you of 21 January

For the record two of the three ROK officials named in para 4 are known to us:

3.

Kim Ha-joong is Director of North East Asia Division II at the MFA and is responsible for China.

Major-General Shin Woo-sik is Director of the Strategic Planning Bureau in the Ministry of Defence.

The other Korean identified, Rhee Jee-chul, is not known to us. But there is a diplomat of that name who was formerly Korean Consul-General in Kobe (Japan) and is now Special Assistant to the Prime Minister (sic).
