According to Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency data obtained by Rep. Park Young-soon of the Democratic Party on Thursday, South Korean exports faced 210 restrictive or punitive actions last year and 208 in the first half this year from 27 countries. The count has been rising from 187 in 2017 to 194 in 2018, 210 in 2019, and 229 in 2020.
The U.S. slapped the largest 47 regulations on Korean export items, taking up one fourth of the barriers on Korean imports. U.S. restrictions have been rising from 31 in 2017, 38 in 2018, 40 in 2019, and 46 in 2020.
Turkey came next with 19 regulations on Korean exports, up versus 15 in 2017, India with 16 versus 28 in 2017, China with 14 versus 17 in 2019, Canada with 13 versus 10 in 2017, and Thailand with 8.
By item, steel and metal products accounted for half of the sanctions (100 cases) in the first six months of the year, followed by chemical items (41), plastic and rubber (23), and textile and apparels (15).
Regulations on steel and metal imports reached 104 last year, up from 85 in 2017, while those on plastic and rubber items rose to 23 in the first six months of this year, up from 20 last year.
More than 7 out of 10 regulations were in the form of anti-dumping measures, while others were safeguard and countervailing duty levies.
