From 1970 to 1990, North Korea’s trade mainly carried out maritime trade through ports for countries around the world. This trend is due to UN sanctions against North Korea, and after the third nuclear test in 2016, North Korea gradually became isolated from the outside world as it expanded to include maritime sanctions in the form of comprehensive sanctions targeting an unspecified majority of North Korea. The logistics structure of North Korea is due to the logistics infrastructure left during the Japanese colonial period in the 1950s and the political structure of the country, with railroads being the main source of logistics and passenger transportation, and roads being secondary. North Korea faced rapid deterioration and lack of facilities after 1990 due to the lack of investment in facilities and improvement of the operating system despite the advanced logistics infrastructure and operating system compared to the South. In particular, the power shortage in North Korea hindered the operation of the railroad and accelerated the aging of the railroad facilities, which has continued to this day. In the 2010s, 96% of cargo transportation in North Korea’s logistics infrastructure depended on railroads and roads, and ports that were developed until the 1980s have deteriorated with little investment since the economic crisis of the 1990s. Although some ports have been developed since 2010, North Korea’s east and west coasts are separated and there is no function of shipping to connect ports, so it did not have a significant impact on enhancing the nation’s port capacity. As North Korea’s trade dependence on China has increased, North Korea has largely relied on land transport, except for some cargoes that are advantageous for marine transport, such as coal. This structure again leads to a decrease in investment in ports, and the current vicious cycle of causing problems with North Korean port facilities is repeated. In this study, North Korea’s land and marine trade logistics system such as railway, road, and shipping and the trend of foreign trade due to sanctions against North Korea were analyzed. Through this analysis, it is planned to be used as a basis for developing the routes and scenarios through which major nuclear items can be transferred in the event of denuclearization of North Korea in the future.

At present, the social development speed is getting faster and faster, and the construction speed of many industries is gradually rapid, and excellent results have been achieved. Under the strategic background of the “Belt and Road” initiative, logistics trade has entered a more critical period of development, obtaining more opportunities and platforms, but also facing more challenges, which requires logistics trade enterprises to do more exploration and research. Maintain the status quo of steady operation of logistics trade. This paper explores the development path of logistics trade under the background of “Belt and Road” initiative, hoping to maintain a good situation of logistics trade.

The continuous development of international logistics of China and Korea trade have influence, because of the geographical position advantage of the two countries, the trade is very convenient, in this paper, based on the development of international logistics trade of China and Korea are expounded, and put forward the development strategy, including perfecting the infrastructure, strengthen personnel training, strengthening the technical cooperation efficiency, promote bilateral trade contacts.

"One belt, one road" initiative has the potential to create greater opportunities for the logistics sector in China-Korea FTA. According to the signing and negotiating of the China -Korea Free Trade Agreement will build a comprehensive institutional framework for the trade, investment and cooperation within the two countries, promote the opening of each others market and push forward the integral development and prosperity of the regional economy. The logistics related system in China is dispersed over different，regulations，international rules and technological specifications of every links of logistics；so there is the lack of system aticness，coordination，legal force and international perspective of this system. China should promote the standardization of logistics related system and regulation，establish an independent and uniformed logistics department，and accelerate amendment of related system to meet the requirement of the development of times.

우리나라도 1999년 관세자유지역 제도에 관한 특별법이 제정되면서 관세자유지역에 대한 제도적 기반을 마련하게 되었다 그러나, 이러한 연구의 대부분은 선진국 성공사례의 벤치마킹과 부산항을 비교 분석함으로써, 그 발전방안을 제시하고 있어 실제 부산항의 항만물류기 능을 수행하고 있는 현 업체 및 실제 시장에 대한 고찰은 매우 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 이러한 취지에서 부산시 관세자유지역 제도의 도입에 따른 항만물류관련업체들의 실제 시장실태를 구조적으로 파악하고, 그러한 분석결과를 기반으로 관세자유지역에 대한 업계의 의식을 고찰하는 것을 연구의 목적으로 한다.
