This Second Korea-OECD Conference commemorates the 5th anniversary of Korea's entry into the OECD. We have two things in mind for this seminar. First, we hope to assess what Korea has achieved over the past five years as an OECD member and we hope to identify what we want to further achieve in the future. Second, we want to broaden the Korean people's understanding of the overall trends in international economic governance of which the OECD has been at the forefront.
