PENGARUH PENINGKATAN JUMLAH WISATAWAN TIONGKOK KE KOREA SELATAN TERHADAP PEREKONOMIAN KOREA SELATAN

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the increase in the number of
Chinese tourists in the South Korean economy through a series of international economicpolitical
relations conducted by both parties in various sectors, especially tourism.
This research uses liberalism perspectives. This perspective is an economic system
in which the market is an autonomous scope of society that runs in accordance with its
economic laws. Economic exchange is a positive sum-game (everyone gets more profit than
they expect). The market will tend to maximize its profits for all individuals and companies
participating in the market. Liberal economy is a space of cooperation for mutual interests,
both between countries and between individuals.
Tourism is an activity that has grown by about 25 percent in the last 10 years. It
currently accounts for about 10 percent of the world's economic activity and is one of the
main generators of labor. The rise of Chinese tourists has affected South Korea's economic
development. This can be seen from the increasing number of exports and imports, the
country's foreign exchange reserves and the income per capita of South Korea.
