This study estimates the economic impact of sea-level rise on Jeju island and suggests the optimal protection level based on the FUND model. There exist a number of studies that estimate the impacts of sea-level rise on global scale, but their results are of limited use for local scale such as Korea. Therefore, this study applies some specific indicators and data of Korea into to FUND model for deriving site specific estimates. The results show that 2.01%~2.25% of land could be inundated by sea-level rise until 2100. The value of affected land is about 6.4%~7.2% of total land value. The discrepancy between the figures indicates that the area affected by sea-level rise is much more valuable than the rest of Jeju island. The optimal protection level in Jeju city is higher than that in Seguipo city, even though the coastal length of Jeju city is longer than that of Seguipo. This is due to the fact that the economic value of Jeju city is much higher than that of Seoguipo city.

WiBro will speed up Ubiquitous era that will have positive effects in our economy such as increase in general production, consumer spending, general export, service qualify, and employment rate. Considering the fact that Wibro is currently commercialized in only few selected countries, Korea has advantage in standardizing technology, accumulating the related know-how, producing domestic parts, and technology marketing experience. I believe developing Wibro technology in Korea will deliver a significant amount of contribution to the future IT technology.

In this paper. we consider the multi-view video technology. The technology, which is a field of 3-Dimensional video processing, enables the user to watch the various view-point of video. We expect that the technology will be applicable to a lot of video services. The economic effects of new technology are very important concern for the technology developer and the technology development policy makers. We, therefore. propose a general method for the economic repercussion effects of the multi-view video technology. The method is based on the expert opinion and input-output analysis. The results for the multi-view video technology are included.

This paper analyse the economic inducement effects of aviation industry using Input-Output Model. For measuring economic inducement effects of aviation industry on korean economy, this paper divides air transport industry as two - manufacturing industry and service industry. we also use Input-Output Table of year 1990 through 2003 from Bank of Korea. Empirical results tells that aviation manufacturing industry have high product inducement effects to national economy although its low value-added coefficient such as 0.486 for aviation manufacturing industry and 0.447 for aviation service industry. public R&D doesn't have much effect to each of aviation industries.

Power system outages can lead to huge economic losses for various industries. Jeju island power system outage in 2006 also caused significant social and economic impacts in Korea. There have been numerous attempts to evaluate the economic costs of power system outages. Power system outages can also have financial impacts on electric power industry. This paper attempts to analyze the economic impacts of the 2006 Jeju island power system outage on the values of the firms in the power industry using event study. Empirical analysis results are presented to show the economic impacts of the 2006 Jeju island outage on the values of the firms in the power industry.

In these days, the interest on health industry is increasing around the world. This paper attempts to estimate the economic effects of the Cosmetic Industrydusing the Input-Output Analysis. Especially, 78*78 Sector Tables were used as the first analysis tool. So then, 79*79 Sector Tables adjusted were used for that industry. The main analysis tools of this study are comparing and analyzing backward and forward linkage effects, the induced effects of the self industry and other industries and the induced coefficients such as product, value-added, job and employment. According to the result of analysis, the cosmetic industry has great economic impacts which affects the major macroeconomic factors such as product, value added and backward linkage effect. And the induced effects of the self cosmetic industry are significant compared to other industries in aspects of product, value-added, and employment.

This paper examines the process of embodied technology spillovers in terms of supply and demand of technology For the purpose, this paper develops a consistent framework to estimate intersectoral R&D spillovers, and to pinpoint the sectors that are the most important for innovative activities and the sectors that produce most technologically intensive products. Based on an input-output framework, the technology intensity of fourteen sectors and the interaction between the sectors in terms of technology spillovers are measured. The results indicate that knowledge-based service sectors are highly supply-pulling and value-additive, but low in terms of employments. The study found that computer services, telecommunications, technology services, and art-related services are the most technology intensive sectors.

This paper analyses the Korean information and communication technology supply side across the economy using 1995, 2000 and 2003 input-output tables. Input-output analysis considers inter-industry relations in an economy, depicting how the output of one industry goes to another industry where it serves as an input, and thereby makes one industry dependent on another both as customer of output and as supplier of Inputs. It can be evaluated that the recent growth of Korean ICT sector has come from the development of communication service and equipment industry and software industry. Although the high performance and positive revealed comparative advantages in ICT manufacturing sector, the value added and employment in that sector are not satisfactory. It may reflect in part high portion of imported intermediate goods in ICT manufacturing. However, it is fortunate that ICT services, which accounted for relatively high value added, induce the development of ICT manufacturing and follow strong export performance. Moreover, it is expected that the software sector with high value added and employment will be a major driver of ICT growth.

This study evaluates the economic impacts of regional festivals and cultural events by utilizing regional input-output models of Seosan and Chungnam, which are derived by using a location-quotient approach. Tourism industry has modest forward and backward linkages with other industries, but its impacts on regional income and employment are much larger than other industries including manufacturing industry. Strong impacts on income and employment seem to provide rational for promoting tourism industry in Seosan and Chungnam. The Seosan Migratory Bird Festival increased city outputs approximately by 3929 million Won, increased employment by 56 people, and increased total income of the province by 774 million Won. All of the economic impacts were mostly concentrated in service related industries,

The food-service industry in Korea has experienced remarkable growth during the past few decades. The objectives of this study were to analyze the influence of the food-service industry upon the national economy by using an input-output analysis and to find the industrial position of the food service industry. This paper analysed the economic effect of the food-service industry using 168 items arranged in a transaction table based on producer's prices in the 1995 input-output tables. The results of this study showed that the food-service industry had a major influence on the national economy of Korea. Based on the calculation of the following five coefficients; Korea's production inducement coefficient ranked as 50, its import inducement coefficient ranked as 28, its value added inducement coefficient ranked as 32, its worker inducement coefficient ranked as 2 and its employee inducement coefficient per final demand ranked as 5 in a total of 168 industries.
