korea's trade ratio and coefficient are similar to hong kong, Singapore and Taiwan, which are much smaller countries... they're probably so dependent on exports from the Japanese rule, they just never got out of the system. this book is quite old though (from the 90s?) so it'll be more interesting to see how/ if things are different now and if they're less reliant on exporting
