Don't be too quick to judge any US-North Korea deal
We live an in era of instant analysis. When a major event occurs there is an inclination to immediately declare whether it was a success or a failure. If an agreement is reached, to say whether it is a good or a bad deal. But that can often be hasty.

Time to look beyond KORUS FTA

2019 will be critical
A little more than a year ago, the prospect of war still hovered over the Korean Peninsula. North Korea had demonstrated the ability to strike anywhere within the continental United States with its November 2017 missile test, despite U.S. President Donald Trump only a month earlier warning North Korea, “Do not underestimate us.

Shifting the South Korean economy
Despite President Moon Jae-in's successes with North Korea, the last two months have been difficult for the Moon administration on the economic front. The OECD recently downgraded expectations for South Korea's GDP growth in 2018.

Rethinking economic engagement with North Korea
Can North Korea set aside its nuclear ambitions for economic prosperity? Is North Korea willing to engage in the types of economic reforms that could transform its economy?

International trade rules matter for South Korea
South Korea has been one of the major beneficiaries of the trading system that developed after World War II. The reduction in tariffs and opening of markets helped to lift South Korea's economy from the depths of poverty at the end of the Korean War to the world's 11th-largest economy today.
