International trade is an important conduit for international technology diffusion. Considering the endogenous growth theory, a rapid increase of foreign patent application, and international trade in Korea, it seems meaningful to study the role of international trade in the technology diffusion from foreign countries to Korea. This paper investigates the relationship between the trade and technology diffusion by using Korean patent data and trade data. We found that the international trade of Korea with foreign countries was very significant variable.
