Paperless trade is a new trade paradigm that has innovated on traditional trade procedures, which relied on manual work in the past, and applied an IT-based e-document standard. To realize paperless trade in Korea, a lot of efforts have been made. Korea has overcome many difficulties, a lack of awareness, trials and errors, etc. at the initial introduction stage and strived to establish a stable infrastructure through the government's policy support and active cooperation with the trade business communities and related organizations. Now, Korea became a well-known leader in IT industry, especially in the paperless trade infrastructure and strategic policies. The one-stop trading system named 'uTradeHub' is operated by a paperless trade service provider, Korea Trade Network(KTNET). uTradeHub includes trade finance and settlement, customs clearance and export and import logistics, improving trading procedures and reducing related expenses. Private-Public joint efforts from Korean government and private sectors which have respectively fulfilled their role and function with market-oriented practical policies and strategies has lead Korea a world leading country in paperless trade. Moreover, Korea expended its efforts to the global areas. Korea has started to activate multi-national paperless trade alliances such as PAA(Pan-Asia e-Commerce Alliance), ASEAL(Asia Europe Alliance for Paperless Trading) as well as established the bilateral cooperative networks with China and Taiwan. The one-stop trading system, uTradeHub should keep close cooperations between nations since trade itself is implemented in a cross-border ways. In the near future, it is expected uTradeHub can achieve best results in the simplification of procedures and cost savings when an international linkage is completely established with international cooperations.

This article begins that previous literatures of South Korea's paperless trade differ from those of other developed countries' paperless trade. Some scholars in South Korea have studied on the relevance of documentary credit in the paperless trade and operability of electronic documentary credit. But Some other scholars in other developed countries have studied about e-customs and e-air logistics. As a result, The current situation of South Korea's paperless trade differs from that of other developed countries' paperless trade. The South Korea's paperless trade has tried to achieve the operation of electronic documentary credit as well as e-customs through the establishment of Korea Trade Network(KTNET) and Customs service's Single Window known as Uni-pass. and other developed countries's paperless trade has made an effort to develop an e-customs and e-air logistics through customs service's Single Window. So, this article describes the current status and characteristics of South Korea's paperless trade and next, this article aims to find out the obstacles and countermeasures in the operation of South Korea's paperless trade. Therefore this paper provides a clear understanding of the problems and solutions associated with South Korea's paperless trade.

Mosts of export/import cargo has been moving using maritime transport means. Korea had been driven the system automation project using EDI document since the mid-1990s. However, this automation system comes upon about 40-50% against overall maritime business process, manual or paper document processing work is existing as ever. International e-business environment also has changing into electronic form document transaction from paper document-based transaction. International standardization organization, UN/CEFACT proposed UNeDocs for paperless jtransaction. UNeDocs is a specification to define XML data model as well as electronic form. With UNeDocs, it is not necessary to generate the duplexed data, and it can support user convenient and guarantee the flexibility. This paper defines the UNeDocs data model for EDI and Off-Line processing at the current maritime business. Then, it have to check XML syntax and structure for the defined data model through quality of document check system. Also, it explains the applying plan about the defined UNeDocs data model. It is possible to support paperless transaction as defining UNeDocs-based standard data model and converting into paper document, XML and EDI document using UNeDocs data model.

점차 종이 서류 기반의 전자거래 방식에서 전자적 메시지를 통한 전자거래 방식으로 업무가 처리되고 있다. 그러나 업무의 특성 상 여전히 종이 서류로 처리해야 하는 경우가 존재하고 있다. 즉 전자 문서를 통해 데이터를 수신받았다 할 지라도 증빙을 위해 사용자는 이와 별도로 종이 서식 문서를 제출해야만 한다. 이에 국제 표준화 기구인 UN/CEFACT은 paperless transaction을 위해 UNeDocs를 제안하였고 종이 서식으로 유통되는 여러 업무에 대해 전자적인 서식 데이터를 정의하고 있다. UNeDocs 기반의 전자 서식 데이터는 데이터 뿐만 아니라 서식 정보까지 포함하고 있으며 이를 바로 출력할 수 있도록 하고 있다. 이로서 이중으로 데이터를 생성할 필요가 없고 표준화된 데이터가 교환됨으로 인해 사용의 편이성을 제공하고 확장성을 보장할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 UNeDocs 기반의 데이터 모델을 UN/CEFACT에서 권고하는 방식으로 정의하고 정의된 데이터 모델을 기반으로 다양한 형태로 변환할 수 있는 시스템을 설계하고자 한다. 설계된 시스템을 통해 입력 데이터를 UNeDocs 기반의 데이터로 변환할 수 있게 됨으로 e-비즈니스에서의 paperless transaction을 지원할 수 있게 된다.

One of the most important paradigms in society has recently been a set of efforts to prepare for the future and to protect the environment by saving carbon that occurs in everyday life as well as in the industry. In order to successfully deal with this new paradigm, Korean government has adopted and implemented various policies including the green certification, the development of green technologies and green growth. Many agencies and organizations in both public and private sectors have established plans about the carbon savings and performed a lot of research using IT technology. For example, attempts have been made in Korea to use as electronic documents instead of paper documents using these green IT and mobile devices. This paper proposes a 'Paperless' waiting order count system using QR code and mobile phone as an example of green IT for 'Low carbon and Green growth'.

Recently regarding the ownership and proper operational forms of paperless trade infrastructure has become an issue. In this research the structural separation approach, different from the behavioral regulation approach, has been adopted. Following the structural separation, the core e-trade infrastructure which is separated from a vertically integrated provider, can be operated by three different forms such as a private sector; a public sector; finally a consortium among participants. As another option, the separated whole infrastructure including both core and non-core can be operated by a independent private entity. However, this option is not interesting case to us. As the last option, it can be considered that a new wholesale independent company for the separated core-infra can be set up for running. Additionally, three other alternative ways such as accounting separation, division separation, or corporation separation with keeping same ownership are also demonstrated. However the cautious investigation on cost and benefits of vertical separation are strongly recommended by OECD and agrees with the conclusion of this study.

In the past, when the credit card was delivered to the customer, the postal agreement and receipt were signed by customer. The repossessed documents were sent back to the card company through the reorganization process. The card company checks the error by scanning and keeps it in the document storage room. This process is inefficient in cost and personnel due to delivery time, document print out, document sorting, image scanning, inspection work, and storage. Also, the risk of personal data spill is very high in the process of providing personal information. The proposed system is a service that receives a postal agreement and a receipt to a recipient when signing a credit card, signing the mobile image instead of paper, and automatically sending it to the card company server. We have designed a system that can protect the cost of paper documents, complicated work procedures, delivery times and personal information. In this study, we developed 'u-paperless' and secure credit card delivery system applying electronic document and security system.
