About this book

About this book

The economic relationship between Japan and South Korea has not been active in recent years. One of the reasons is that the countries' industrial relationship has shifted from one based on vertical division of labor to a competitive relationship. At the same time, however, new activities have started to emerge that are aimed at horizontal division of labor between the two countries. This book traces the economic relationship between Japan and South Korea since the 2000s, focusing on developments in trade and direct investment and on competition and cooperation in, for example, the IT, steel and silver industries. The book also clarifies issues to be addressed to revitalize the two countries' economic relationship.
