This study aims to analyze international trade papers published in Korea during the past 2002-2022 years. Through this study, it is possible to understand the main subject and direction of research in Korea's international trade field. As the research mythologies, this study uses the big data analysis such as the text mining and Social Network Analysis such as frequency analysis, several centrality analysis, and topic analysis. After analyzing the empirical results, the frequency of key word is very high in trade, export, tariff, market, industry, and the performance of firm. However, there has been a tendency to include logistics, e-business, value and chain, and innovation over the time. The degree and closeness centrality analyses also show that the higher frequency key words also have been higher in the degree and closeness centrality. In contrast, the order of eigenvector centrality seems to be different from those of the degree and closeness centrality. The ego network shows the density of business, sale, exchange, and integration appears to be high in order unlike the frequency analysis. The topic analysis shows that the export, trade, tariff, logstics, innovation, industry, value, and chain seem to have high the probabilities of included in several topics.

This study aims to analyze Latin America and the Caribbean papers published in Korea during the past 2000-2020 years. Through this study, it is possible to understand the main subject and direction of research in Korea's Latin America and the Caribbean area. As the research mythologies, this study uses the text mining and Social Network Analysis such as frequency analysis, several centrality analyses, and topic analysis. After analyzing the empirical results, there has been a tendency to change the key words and centrality coefficients between 2000-2010 and 2011-2020 years. During 2011-2020 years, the most frequent keywords were changed from Neoliberalism and culture to policy education, and economy related words. The degree and closeness centrality analyses appeared the higher frequency key words. However, the eigenvector centrality appeared very different from the order of frequency key words. The topic analysis shows that the culture, language, and Neoliberalism were the most important keywords during 2000-2010 years but economy, labor trade, industry, development became the most important keywords during 2011-2020 years in topics.

This paper empirically investigated the factors that may affect art forgery, using 5,130 authentication request data drawn from Korean Art Appraisal Board (KAAB) during 2003 and 2012. Living status of artists and trade frequency of artworks of the artists were considered as explanatory variables that may affect authentication requests and forgery ratio. We found that artists' death has significantly positive impacts on both authentication requests and forgery ratio, while trade frequency of artworks of the artists has the impact only on authentication requests. These results imply that art forgery may have multidimensional characteristics.

This study is focusing on the trade-offs between the passband ripples and transition bands of the Chebyshev BPF, which is converted by using the Chebyshev LPF that is well known as a proto-type analog filter. It is also focusing on the trade-offs between the passband ripples and transition bands of the cascading Chebyshev BPF, as well as, the trade-offs between the two BPFs. The study finds the frequency responses of the proto-type analog LPF, the Chebyshev BPF and the cascading Chebyshev BPF. The study shows the results as comparative analysis tables. The study designs the 10th Chebyshev BPF in order to analyze it easily. The simulation results show that the Chebyshev BPF decreases about 55% of the transition band for the -2.5[dB] passband ripple comparing to the -0.5[dB] passband ripple. This study shows the effectiveness and economic feasibility in the restricted frequency communication environment for the decrease of the transition band as providing the passband ripple margin.

In this study, a trade-off analysis of a power conversion system (PCS) is performed in accordance with a power semiconductor device to establish the suitable operating frequency range for the anyplace induction heating system. A resonant network is designed under each operating frequency condition to compare and analyze the PCS losses depending on the power semiconductor device. On the basis of the simulation results, the PCS losses and frequency condition are calculated. The calculated results are then used for a trade-off analysis between Si-MOSFET and GaN-HEMT based on PCS. The suitable operating frequency range is determined, and the validity of the analysis results is verified by the experiment results.

The purpose of this paper is to study the impact of trade openness on foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows into Vietnam, an emerging country with relatively high trade openness in recent years. The study used the vector autoregression (VAR) model to examine the impact of trade openness on FDI in Vietnam, in the period from 2005 to 2019. The research data are time-series data, with quarterly frequency, from 2005:Q4 to 2019:Q3. The FDI data were collected by International Financial Statistics. The data of trade openness were calculated based on Vietnam's export, import, and GDP data collected by the General Statistics Office of Vietnam. The estimated result shows that the trade openness has a positive effect on FDI. The current FDI is heavily influenced by FDI in the past with an average explanation of 74%. The main findings indicate that trade openness has a positive effect on FDI inflows into Vietnam. The findings also show that FDI in Vietnam is significantly affected by the shocks of the FDI itself in the past. The findings of the study suggest the Vietnamese Government improves the quality of trade openness and FDI, continues and maintains economic relations with other countries to increase trade openness.

Recently, each country has been using non-tariff barriers (Non-Tariff Barriers, NTB) as a new protection trade policy. In particular, TBT lies at the center of NTB. In this context, we examine the impact of Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) on Korea's exports to ASEAN. Using 10-year statistics from 2007 to 2016 that came into effect with the ASEAN FTA, we analyze the impact of TBT on the Korean exports in the electrical machinery industry (HS85), which accounts for more than 30 percent of Korea's total exports to ASEAN. The results of the empirical analysis using a gravity model showed significant and positive effects in the variables of GDP and real effective exchange rate in each ASEAN country on Korea's exports to ASEAN. As expected, the tariff rate has a negative effect. As for TBT, the key variable of this study, the results are as follows. Although many previous studies reported that TBT has negative impacts on exports, this study could not find any significant impact of TBT and found that Korea's exports of electrical machinery to ASEAN countries are not affected by TBT. Various implications of these results are suggested.
