In this momentous year, the ASEAN- Korea Centre (AKC), the Korean Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (KISEAS), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea and JoongAng Ilbo, organised the International Conference on ASEAN- Korea Partnership under the theme Partnering for Tomorrow, covering the three pillars of cooperation: political-security, economic, and socio- cultural. The Conference gathered policymakers and scholars from both ASEAN and Korea, to review the last 50 years of ASEAN’s progress and the evolution of regional cooperation, and to discuss the prospects of enhancing cooperation between ASEAN and Korea. This book is a compilation of the research presented at this Conference and the discussions that followed. It hopes to provide insight to its readers on the development of ASEAN over the last five decades, how ASEAN-Korea relations prospered since their beginning in 1989, and the direction this partnership should take in the next decades to come. The common understanding among all policymakers and scholars was the significance of ASEAN-Korea relations to both ASEAN and Korea, as well as to the East Asian region as a whole. In the uncertain and unpredictable era we live in today, with major power rivalries, growing protectionism and anti-globalisation sentiments, it is important that ASEAN and Korea do not seek immediate profits, but work toward sustainable relations that will last for centuries. ASEAN and Korea are 13 partners that want and need each other for regional peace, stability and prosperity. ASEAN and Korea relations have developed by leaps and bounds during the past decades. The security, stability and prosperity of ASEAN and the Korean peninsula are closely interconnected, and the two regions are substantially interdependent. However, for a sustainable partnership between ASEAN and Korea, it is important to build a strong foundation of socio-cultural cooperation.

As of November, the market share for Korean films in the domestic market stood at 55 percent, which indicates that the yearly market share of Korean films will be over 50 percent for the third year in a row. In the international arena as well, Korean films were invited to major international film festivals including Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Locarno, and San Sebastian and received a warm reception from critics and audiences. It is often said that the current prosperity of Korean cinema is due to the strong commitment and policies introduced by the KIM Dae-joong government in 1999 to promote Korean films.

  • The Next Growth Strategy for Hallyu 79
    Lee & Kim / The Next Growth Strategy for Hallyu 79 THE NEXT GROWTH STRATEGY FOR HALLYU A Comparative Analysis of Global Entertainment Firms Yeon W. Lee Seoul School of Integrated Science and Technology [email protected] Kyuchan Kim Korea Culture and Tourism Institute [email protected] Abstract Previous policy approaches on Hallyu have been focused on the role of government engagement, particularly in fostering diversity and equal business opportunities for small-and-medium enterprises (SMEs). However, a more strategic approach to the cultural industries should be implemented by carefully examining the role of the private sector, particularly the role of large enterprises (LEs). his is important because LEs have an overarching and fundamentally diferentiated role in increasing the size of industry through their expansive value-creating activities and diversiied business areas. his study focuses on the complementary roles of SMEs and LEs in facilitating the growth of Hallyu by bringing in the perspective of value chain diversiication and the modiied value chain framework for the ilm industry. By conducting a comparative analysis of the global entertainment irms in the US, China, and Japan, this study reveals how LEs in the global market enter and explore new industries within culture and continue to enhance their competitiveness. By forming a business ecosystem through linking their value-creating activities as the platform of network, this study looks into the synergistic role among enterprises of diferent size and scale and suggests that Korea’s policy for Hallyu should reorient toward a new growth strategy that encourages the integrative network of irms where the value activities of LEs serve as the platform for convergence.

Old Boy (Park Chan-wook, 2003) 358 | Introduction to Korean Film Growth in Quantity Over the past decade, Korean cinema has shown incredible growth. Its renaissance has come after a long period of stagnation after the heyday of the 1960s. With regard to quantity, the number of films produced did not increase greatly but audiences for Korean films surged to ten million people for some films. The market share for Korean cinema was 23.1 per cent in 1996. In 1998 it increased to 35.8 per cent, and in 2001 it passed 50 per cent. Although Korean cinema was on a consistent upward curve from 1996, the success of Swiri (Kang Je-kyu, 1999) triggered a boom. Ever since Swiri became the biggest box-office hit in Korean film history, new records for Korean films have been set every year. Amid talk of “Korean block- busters,” Joint Security Area / JSA (Park Chan-wook, 2000) and Friend (Kwak Kyung-taek, 2001) topped the box-office. Silmido (Kang Woo- suk) in 2003 and Tae-guk-gi (Kang Je-kyu) in 2004, inaugurated the ten million-audience era. Kang Woo-suk and Kang Je-kyu have played an important role in the box-office history of Korean films.
