中韩的经贸合作与政治互信受到“萨德”入韩的影响都出现了不同程度的倒退。此 后,中韩经贸合作和政治互信都得到了修复。然而比起经贸关系的快速修复,政治互信的 改善却进展缓慢。中韩经贸关系与政治关系分属不同的领域,彼此相互独立,有着各自的 运作逻辑与规律。具体来说,中韩经济关系由市场主体主导,而政治关系则由政治主体主 导,市场主体与政治主体行为偏好上的差异形成了中韩政经关系不同步改善的现象。“萨 德”后,受到泛政治化的影响,快速修复的经贸关系却始终未能有效拉动中韩政治关系的 改善。然而,当前中韩政经关系存在的问题依然可以改善。首先,针对官方交流存在的泛 政治化倾向,可以通过去政治化实现官方交流的理性回归;其次通过活跃民间交流可以遏 制民族主义情绪的蔓延,改善民间的对立情绪,从而重构中韩关系的民意基础。
The entry of THAAD into South Korea has had an impact on economic cooperation as well as political trust between China and South Korea, and both have regressed to varying degrees. Since then, economic cooperation as well as political trust has been restored thanks to the joint efforts of the two governments. However, compared to the speed at which economic cooperation has improved, political trust has improved more slowly. Political and economic ties between China and South Korea fall under separate, autonomous domains that each have their own logic and rules of conduct. Specifically, market players dominate economic relations between China and South Korea, while political players dominate political relations. The difference in behavioral preferences between market players and political players has resulted in the phenomenon that political-economic relations between China and South Korea have not improved concurrently. Additionally, since politicization has a negative impact on economic ties, the rapid improvement of economic relations following the THAAD crisis has not been successful in fostering greater political mutual confidence. The political and economic issues currently plaguing China-South Korean relations can yet be resolved. First and foremost, in response to the trend towards politicization of official exchanges, the rational return of official exchanges can be achieved through depoliticization. Second, by encouraging private exchanges, the spread of nationalist sentiment can be slowed and public antagonism reduced, thereby rebuilding the public opinion base of China-South Korean relations.
