The national land survey of Japanese imperialism was carried out in earnest in 1907, when the temporary Bureau for the royal house-hold and national property research was promulgated. The purpose of this organization was to distinguish between and investigate the royal house-hold and national property. People could appeal if they had an objection to this decision. The administrative disposition of the bureau was given absoluteness as in Article 15 of the Land Survey Law. The Japanese imperialism gave national land the legal effect of the original acquisition and the exclusive ownership. The Japanese government conducted the survey of the real estate, based on Yeokdunto register, and drew up the register of state-owned land. It confirmed this in the land survey. The Bureau system did not express the legal effect as a provision clearly, so the appeal of its decision was frequent. In 1915, it was on this account that people of Gungsam-myeon raised a lawsuit against the Oriental Colonization Company. At this time, the High Court interpreted the decision of the bureau as a measure given absoluteness in the judgement. Thus, it can be deduced that the land registered in the national land register was excluded from the object of state-owned and private land dispute.
