We empirically investigate the determinants of a firm's exit from exporting, using Korean manufacturing firm-level data for the period from 2006 to 2014. Specifically, we estimate the effects of not only firm-level and industry-level characteristics, but also macroeconomic variables on the probability that a firm stops exporting by applying a Complementary Log-Log Model analysis. The results of our estimation suggest that firm-level heterogeneity, such as workforce size, capital intensity, intangible assets and foreign ownership, industry-level variation, such as the labor displacement rate, and macroeconomic variables, such as domestic demand and world demand, significantly affect the possibility of a firm ceasing exports. Also, we show that market interest rates increase the possibility of an export cessation and that the effects of market interest rates are more pronounced on firms with a higher debt ratio. In the primary exporting industries, the probability of a firm ceasing exports decreases as productivity at the firm rises.

In this study, I empirically analyzed the factors affecting export performance with domestic ICT companies. I set up 3 variables - companies' factors, marketing factors and factors of export supporting system - as the factors affecting export performance, based on findings of precedent studies; and I set up non-financial performance as a dependent variable. As a result of analysis, I found out that companies' factors(market orientation of CEO, competitiveness in export, experience of export) and marketing factors(diversification of overseas market, barriers to marketing), among the variables affecting export performance, were the variables affecting non-financial performance, set up as the export performance; but the factors of awareness, availability and difficulty, set up as the detail factor among factors of export supporting system, do not affect non-financial performance.

지난 1972년 6월에 전기기기 특히 전동기의 수출을 목적으로 동남아제국을 여행하였다. 이기회에 어떻게 하면 우리나라 전기기기 특히 전동기를 수출 할 수 있는가하여 그 시장에서의 특징을 살필 기회를 가졌다. 이제껏 우리나라에는 전동기는 수입하는것이지 수출한다하면 곧이듣지 아니하는 경향이었는데 특성으로보나 외형으로보나 이제는 우리 전동기를 수출할 수 있게끔 되었다는것은 기쁜일이다. 여기에 실리는것은 해외시장조사보고가 아니라 전동기의 현황과 수출할 수 있는 여건을 몇가지 고려하여 보고자 하는 것이다.

This study deduced an effect produced on the export performance of ICT company through precedent study. And the importance of each factor was analyzed, regarding the deduced influencing factors. And influencing factors in the export performance of ICT export companies were presented at a practical level on the basis of analysis results. According to the results of analysis, with regard to the influencing factor in the export performance of ICT company, companies' factors were interpreted as the most important influencing factor among the 1st hierarchical factors. According to the results of analysis after setting 12 factors for the 2nd hierarchical factor, 4 factors including export experience, CEO's market orientation, marketing strategy, and export market attractiveness were interpreted as very important factors. Therefore, it was possible to find that, with regard to the influencing factor in the export performance of ICT company, above all, enterprise internal factors- i.e., companies' factors, marketing factors- were more important influencing factors.

This study suggests a gateway strategy for transporting agri-food exports to expand exports after examining the patterns of Korean agri-food exports by commodities and the role of export gateways. Korean agri-food exports have increased, but processed food exports have increased significantly compared to fresh agricultural products during the last 17 years. More importantly, Busan port is the main agri-food export hub in Korea. Under these circumstances, this paper examines the determinants of processed cereal-based food (HS 19) exports through Busan port using classification and regression tree (CART) analysis. As a result, the main factors that help to predict the real value of Korean exports are the GDP of the export destination countries, their distances from Korea and their GNI per capita. The destinations of Korean agri-food exports are finally classified into eight groups, which reveals the characteristics of clusters and provides useful insights for the strategies to expand agri-food exports.

As global online business expands, direct overseas sales, where company directly sells products to foreign consumers, has become a new trend. The purpose of this study is to find out the characteristics of B2C Korean online exporters. This study analyzes export companies, 45,267 doing offline business and 205 online, and the two findings drawn from the study are as follows: First, B2C online exporters shipped 4-5 times more products to 10-13 times more countries than offline exporters. It also showed higher rate of export persistency. Second, from using gravity model analysis, it was found that export through online sales removes distance barrier by 60% more than offline. In addition, Free Trade Agreement appears to help boost online overseas sales. This study has significance in that it is the first analysis on B2C online export using actual proof, and it can be differentiated by other researches in terms of identifying the traits of Korean online export.

The purpose of the study is to identify the characteristics of films to be exported into a larger market abroad, especially the Japanese film market which occupies more than a half of the export costs of the Korean movies. Our analysis shows that the factors such as the reputation of a director and actors in Japan, the box-office record in Korea and genres have influence upon the export to the Japanese market. Among genres, comedy movies were less exported, while melodramas was more. We expect that this result will be helpful when film producers plan movies for export from the stage of pre-production.

Developing new technologies and launching new products require a huge sum of money for Research and Development, and there is also market uncertainty. Comparing to advanced countries' companies, Korea's exporting companies have less investment cost in size for R&D and insufficient technology assets accumulated. Therefore, through the open innovation, they should use external technology and enhance the efficiency of the relatively little R&D investment. This paper draws the factors influencing the innovations of Korea's exporting companies, and then it analyses how each innovation influences export performance. First, innovations are devided into two; closed and open innovation. Multiple regression analysis has been done, considering influence factors of innovation such as company's characteristics factors, research's characteristics factors and products characteristics factors to be independent variables, and export performance to be a dependent variable. It shows that firm size and new products launching period have positive effects on each innovation, but research capability and research performance have positive effects only on closed innovation. And open innovation has positive effects on export performance, but closed innovation doesn't have.

Rapidly growing cross-border e-commerce exhibits different characteristics from traditional trade. This paper empirically investigates influencing factors of CBEC trade between Korea and foreign countries including product characteristics, such as product type and unit price. We construct panel data based on Korea's e-commerce export data by country and product and analyze it by the OLS, fixed effect, and random effect estimation. Our main findings can be summarized as follows: geographical distance still remained as an obstacle to the CBEC trade, product unit price, and durable consumer goods dummy variables positively affect e-commerce export of Korea, and capital goods dummy variables negatively affect e-commerce export. This research can help us understand the characteristics of cross-border e-commerce and can be used as a basis for future research using product-specific data.
