연합인증

연합인증 가입 기관의 연구자들은 소속기관의 인증정보(ID와 암호)를 이용해 다른 대학, 연구기관, 서비스 공급자의 다양한 온라인 자원과 연구 데이터를 이용할 수 있습니다.

이는 여행자가 자국에서 발행 받은 여권으로 세계 각국을 자유롭게 여행할 수 있는 것과 같습니다.

연합인증으로 이용이 가능한 서비스는 NTIS, DataON, Edison, Kafe, Webinar 등이 있습니다.

한번의 인증절차만으로 연합인증 가입 서비스에 추가 로그인 없이 이용이 가능합니다.

다만, 연합인증을 위해서는 최초 1회만 인증 절차가 필요합니다. (회원이 아닐 경우 회원 가입이 필요합니다.)

연합인증 절차는 다음과 같습니다.

최초이용시에는
ScienceON에 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 로그인 (본인 확인 또는 회원가입) → 서비스 이용

그 이후에는
ScienceON 로그인 → 연합인증 서비스 접속 → 서비스 이용

연합인증을 활용하시면 KISTI가 제공하는 다양한 서비스를 편리하게 이용하실 수 있습니다.

Abstract AI-Helper 아이콘AI-Helper

For the past 12 years, China and South Korea have significantly improved their bilateral ties—to such an extent that China is now South Korea's largest trading partner. Furthermore, China's role is essential to any progress in the ongoing Six-Party Talks over the North Korean nuclear issue. O...

  1. Unless noted otherwise, all statistical data concerning China's relations with the two Koreas are based on the official publications of the ROK Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MOFAT). Occasionally, such primary sources as the data compiled by the Trade Research Institute (TRI) of the Korea International Trade Association (KITA) are employed; but they can be easily corroborated with those of MOFAT. 

  2. This is the term used by Brad Glosserman for describing the longer-term nature of the Sino-ROK relationship. See his “U.S.China: The Next Alliance?”South China Morning Post, Oct. 30, 2003.

  6. According to the recent data released by MOFAT, South Korea's trade with China in 2004 was US$79.3 billion, with a surplus of US$20.2 billion. According to the Chinese statistics-which includes the ROK's trade portions with Hong Kong, it was US$90.1 billion. China's accounts showing the size of the trade imbalance with South Korea in 2004 have not yet been released to date. 

  7. The ROK's accumulated amount of investment in China up to 2004 was US$17.8 billion, which is close to its total investment in the United States (US$17.1 billion). 

  8. The figures are drawn from an interview with the ROK's ambassador to the PRC. See Yonhap News, Feb. 13, 2004. 

  9. The increase in China's exports to North Korea over the past few years should be interpreted as a form of Chinese assistance. The question of North Korea's dependency on Chinese oil and food has recently taken on new relevance in light of the discussion of possible international sanctions against North Korea. According to various official documents of the ROK, North Korea imported an average one million tons of oil from China in 1991-96 and it fell to a half million tons and below since 1997. Its grain imports from China are a far more complicated issue to account for, due in part to China's own harvest level and export policy, but approximately 300,000 tons of grain have been imported from China since 1997. For a series of recent, but higher-level, accounts of North Korea's oil and grain imports from China, see John J. Tkacik, Jr. “China Must Pressure Pyongyang (Dec. 17, 2002),” available atwww.heritage.org/Press/Commenrary/ed123102b.cfm;Phillip P.

  16. The Chinese government's position is that there are no North Korean “refugees,” let alone “dissidents,” in its territory. Its position has triggered a series of strong protestations from various NGOs based in South Korea and elsewhere. See the editorial, Chosun Ilbo , Dec.11, 1999, p. 2. The latest attempt by the Korean religious groups to invite the Dalai Lama was apparently foiled due to the ROK's concern over Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji's October 2000 visit to Seoul. See Chosun Ilbo , Oct. 19, 2000, p. 3.

  18. After the election for General Assembly members, 63 percent of the ruling party members (Uri Party) favored closer ties with China compared with the United States. After the Goguryeo affair escalated into diplomatic row between the two countries, the figure plummeted to 10 percent or below. Similar results can be found in other opinion surveys. See, for example, Yonhap News , Aug. 10, 2004 and Media Daum , Aug. 19, 2004.
