With the rapid growth of high-tech, the development of cultural and creative industries has gradually become the focus of national industrial development. With the proposal of China's "Belt and Road" strategy, the role of cultural and creative industries in the provinces and cities along the "Belt and Road" in the entire international trade is becoming increasingly critical. It is necessary to explore solutions to improve the competitiveness of China's cultural and creative industries, factoring the surrounding cities of the "Belt and Road" as an example. Thus, this paper proposes the six-element diamond model based on innovation capability and government support to render a comprehensive evaluation of the competitiveness of the cultural and creative industries in the 31 provinces and cities across the country. The results show that the overall competitiveness of the 18 provinces and cities along the "Belt and Road" cultural and creative industries is weak. Focusing on the 18 provinces and cities along the "Belt and Road", using the linear regression measurement model quantitative analysis, the four types of influencing factors affecting the development of the competitiveness of cultural and creative industries along the "Belt and Road" were obtained. Finally, according to the four types of influence, the competitiveness improvement plan is proposed from the four aspects: government role, consumption preference, industrial innovation ability, and the introduction of high-quality talent.

This paper analyzes the social cohesion effects of creative industrial as a core role player of emerging new economic paradigm of the creative economy using the case of Seoul Metropolitan Area(SMA) that is a typical cluster of creative industries in Korea. This study reclassified the creative industries in a Korean context into 13 industries in 6 sectors. Based on this reclassification, the study found out that the spatial pattern of creative industries in SMA is spatially much differentiated in terms of specialization, which demands more differentiated cluster strategy with different policy mix. This paper also investigates the social cohesion effects of creative industries using structural equation modelling. It turns out that the growth of creative industries is likely to contribute to the regional development capacity and also to provide positive effects on various aspects of the social cohesion.

First, the primary city, Seoul, has too much eminence than the citysize rule suggests, and the creative-industry elasticity is very high compared to population and all industry. Second, Seoul is reinforcing the uneven growth with adjacent cities. Third, the local main cities have little power to enhance creative industries and the local small cities grow randomly. Fourth, each city should have more deliberation in accepting creative industries as an urban growth strategy.

This paper attempts to review some key concepts related to the creative economy, and examines some issues on the creative economy and regional development from the perspective of economic geography. The main findings are as follows. First, as creative industries, in general, demonstrate the complex structure of value chain in which various industrial sectors are inter-connected, it tends to show that those are place-specific. Second, in policy context, creative industries are required to have four institutional conditions: hard infrastructure(physical infrastructure, skilled labor pool and related industrial sectors), social infrastructure, super-structure and policy governance. Third, as creative industries are affected by related variety than other industrial sectors, there is a strong possibility that those are concentrated in a small number of large metropolitan cities.

The purpose of this paper is to show the role of aesthetic experience from appreciating the creative products in the creative economy. The paper has found that the universality of creativity is a very basic foundation of the creative economy and anyone can enhance his or her creativity from appreciating or consuming the creative products and apply such acquired creativity to the non-creative industries. From these findings we can derive two public policy implications. The first one is that the government should support people to pursue a diverse and unique experience, i.e. aesthetic experience with creative products. And the second one is that art education both inside and outside of the school curriculum should be emphasized.
