Combining results from previous research, the study draws economic effects and implications of KORUS FTA on Korea. In general, the Korean economy will achieve a quantitative economic expansion to a greater or lesser degree through KORUS FTA. We can find similar results on the research of KOREU and Korean-China FTA. FTA between a relative smaller open economy and a bigger market economy will give a driving force of economic growth on the functioning of the relatively small and open economies.en-USFree trade agreementRepublic of KoreaUS-Korea FTADuluth Journal of Undergraduate ResearchUniversity of Minnesota DuluthArticle
