摘要

服裝和紡織是南韓的傳統製造行業，可是近年來在全球化的浪潮下，針對該行業是否具有高效的績效表現甚至是否能夠生存下去的質疑卻水漲船高。 我們認為，服裝和紡織行業面臨的挑戰來自於幾個方面，她們分別是信息技術的高速發展，運輸成本的減少和市場管制的放鬆。這些挑戰，很不幸地，為該傳統行業製造了一系列的負面影響，例如，行業內工作職位的減少，產品和出口競爭優勢的弱化等等。從全球化新背景的角度來看，這些現象說明了南韓的傳統行業發展正在被動地逐漸放慢速度。因此，在面對國際對手，南韓要想成為世界一流的專業製造者，則必須全面展開高附加價值的創新和多樣化的策略，這是面對以上挑戰所需要具有的必然成功因素。

本研究旨在探討南韓服裝和紡織這個逐漸衰退卻被報導為處於成熟期的行業，文章最後會提出我們的研究貢獻以及對該傳統行業的參考意涵。

The garment & textile industry constitutes traditional manufacturing in South Korea. However, this industry has faced challenges that doubt its ability to perform and survive at an efficient level. The cause of these challenges contributed from the fast advances in information technologies, reductions in transportation and market deregulation which together generate what is frequently called globalization. There have been registered some negative changes –in number of job in garment & textile industry, losing competitiveness advantage as well as in production and export. These features define a new scenario where globalization has occurred one of the phenomena that better explains the current deceleration in this traditional sector in South Korea. Consequently, Korean manufacturers have to achieve world class specialization to be globally competitive therefore strategy of innovation (for high value- added subsector) and diversification is regarded to be essential in the success of facing the challenges. The study investigates the Korean garment & textile industry that even though has found consistent characteristics of declining phase but has reported the mature industry. The study includes role of the government and concludes with contributions and implications of the results.
