한국의 현행 대외무역법은 1986년 제정된 이래 29차례의 개정을 거치면서 무역의 확대와 국제수지의 균형에 기여하였다. 반면 1994년 제정된 이래 중국의 대외무역법은 WTO가입 이후 2004년 한 차례의 개정만을 거쳤으며 현재 변화하는 국제무역환경에 대응하기 위해 개정논의가 진행중에 있다. 한중 양국의 역사적, 사회적 배경이 다르기 때문에 양국의 대외무역법 체계는 구성요소와 특징 면에서 차이가 있다. 이러한 양국 대외무역법의 역사적 발전과정에 대한 이해는 중국의 현행 대외무역법에 대한 이해를 제고시킬 뿐만 아니라 향후 개정방향에도 시사점을 제공할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 한국과 중국의 대외무역법의 역사적 발전과정을 살펴본 후, 양국 대외무역법의 발전배경, 행정관리체계, 무역촉진 및 무역제한, 수출입질서, 무역업 자유화 등을 비교분석하고 있다.

With the evolution of industrial structure and industrialization in developing countries, some trade has become intra-industry between developing and developed countries. The level of intra-industry trade between China and South Korea has also become an essential indicator of the country’s economic development and industrialization.

It suggests accelerating the sustainable development of China-Korea trade from the perspectives of strengthening trade communication between the two sides and accelerating Chinese enterprises’ investment in Korea.

Integrated circuits are the cornerstone of the development of information and communication technology industries in various countries, and to a large extent affect the development of the future technological industry revolution, and are known as “industrial food”. With the transfer of the global integrated circuit industry chain, emerging economies in East Asia represented by China and South Korea occupy a core position in the global integrated circuit trade. In recent years, although the scale of China’s integrated circuit trade has expanded rapidly, it has been in an unbalanced state for a long time, and the trade deficit is extremely high. The domestic demand for high-end integrated circuits can only be met by imports. The development of my country’s integrated circuit trade is large but not strong. Thanks to the financial support and preferential policies of the Korean government, in the 1980s, Korean integrated circuit companies took the lead in breaking through the international technology of memory integrated circuits. After that, the Korean government developed other integrated circuit products on this basis. Export of foreign exchange earning products. In order to measure the gap between China’s IC trade international competitiveness and South Korea more accurately. Next, a literature study is conducted on the comparative analysis of the development status of integrated circuit trade between China and South Korea. It was found that the development of South Korea’s integrated circuit industry was later than that of China, but the latter came ahead.
