South Korea's capital metropolitan area accounts for more than half of the country's total population and GDP. To overcome this phenomenon, the Korean government implemented various policies for the balanced development of the country, a representative of which was the construction of Sejong City in Chungcheong Province. Sejong City was established in July 2012, and by 2021, 44 government organizations and 15 state-run research institutes had migrated from metropolitan areas. In addition, it actively interacts with various cities in Daejeon, Chungcheongbuk-do, and Chungcheongnam-do, increasing its influence on the size of the economy and surrounding cities. Despite the importance of Sejong City, economic analysis after its establishment of Sejong City is still insufficient. Sejong City is expected to have clear regional characteristics in the public administration sector and research and development (R&D) for construction purposes. The education service industry is expected to revitalize because of the characteristics of the newly created city. Therefore, by using the 2015 Korean Multiregional Input-Output table, this study analyzes the industrial structure of Sejong City and Sejong's industrial characteristics and economic relations with other regions by measuring the industrial linkage between Sejong City and Chungcheong area, Seoul metropolitan area, and other regions by major industry.
South Korea’s Seoul metropolitan area accounts for more than half of the country’s GDP and population. This phenomenon is getting worse annually. Regions outside the metropolitan area of Korea are not only decreasing in terms of economic size, but also becoming more dependent on the metropolitan area in terms of economic structure. In the past, the metropolitan area was based on the service industry and the size of the manufacturing industry was large in other regions, but the size of the manufacturing industry in the metropolitan area also increased over time. To analyze dependence on the Seoul Metropolitan area, this study conducts inter-regional production inducement effects, regional division of labor, and three regional structural decomposition analysis using Korea's 2005-2010-2015 MRIO to further analyze dependence on the metropolitan area. Furthermore, this research integrates industry classification and realizes price level of Input-Output tables to link three years MRIO in three industries: Wholesale and retail trade and product brokerage services, Motor vehicle, and Semiconductor and other electronic components. From the inter-regional production inducement effect, the effect between the metropolitan area and each region is calculated through the regional export and import effects of each region. Furthermore, the proportion of metropolitan areas in major industries and their changes are measured through regional division of labor, and through multi regional structural decomposition analysis, the growth factors of each region over the 10 years are determined by own region, metropolitan area, and other regions.
This paper aims to evaluate the culture and arts of the Kyoto prefecture from the economic point of view through the calculation of the cultural GDP of Kyoto prefecture in 2015. The method for calculating the cultural GDP in Japan is mainly based on the criterion of the UNESCO’s Cultural Satellite Account (CSA). Results reveal that the ratio of the cultural GDP to the total GDP in Kyoto prefecture is slightly higher than that of the whole country in Japan and each domain shows different characteristics from the national situation. Considering the growth strategies of cultural industries formulated by Japanese government, Kyoto prefecture should focus on developing its main industry and vigorously promote its cultural industries as well as activate the development of the traditional culture.
The rise of cultural industry is in the part facilitated by the rise of leisure and entertainment in the advanced industrialized economies. Recently western countries have been attaching importance to cultural industry and developing it as one of the growth strategies. Japan has also made numerous efforts to its cultural industry. Kyoto prefecture, as the ancient capital of Japan, is famous for its traditional culture, promoting the development of its cultural industry positively in these years. This paper is to analyze the impact and development status of Kyoto’s cultural industry, based on the compilation of the 2015 Input-output table of Kyoto prefecture with 110 sectors. First, the writer modified the 2015 IO table of Kyoto prefecture with 105 sectors to 110 sectors IO table. Second, some important IO analysis indexes derived from the matrix such as specialization coefficient, influence coefficient and sensitivity coefficient to show the characteristics of Kyoto’s cultural industry. Third, the writer compares the model of endogenization of consumption expenditure of household with the basic model of equivalence of the outputs, in order to analyze the impact on the more complex economic circle of cultural industry.
