This paper aims at assessing the causes of promoting FTAs in Korea and seeking strategies of GyeongGi-Do. Korean government pursues FTAs with many countries at the same time. The reason for doing it that the Korean government would like to actively react to the regionalism and to create driving power for Korea’s economic growth through FTA strategy. GyeongGi-Do has historically been subject to capital region regulation and it continues to constrict the industries in GyeongGi-Do. Therefore, it should remove the capital region regulation in order to maximize positive effects of FTAs.
