The Star Trek character Hikaru Sulu is named after the Sulu Sea. According to Sulu actor George Takei, " Roddenberry's vision for Sulu was to represent all of Asia, being named for the Sulu Sea instead of using a specific country-specific name".
In the radio serial Jack Armstrong, the All-American Boy, the Sulu Sea was the locale for the episodes of "The Luminous Dragon Eye Ring".
