More Japanese, Less Chinese Positively View Ties with Korea
A survey finds that over the past year Japanese have developed a more favorable attitude, and Chinese less favorable, regarding their respective nation’s ties with Korea.
The Northeast Asian History Foundation commissioned Gallup Korea this summer to survey about 500 people each in Seoul, Beijing and Tokyo.
Sixty-five percent of Japanese responded favorably toward bilateral relations with Korea, up from 53 percent last year. Forty-four percent of Koreans responded favorably toward bilateral relations with Japan, a sharp rise from last year's 22 percent.
On Korea-China relations, only 67 percent of Chinese responded positively, a large drop from 87 percent in 2007 and 72 percent last year. Meanwhile, the percentage of Koreans that viewed the Korea-China relationship positively increased from 36 percent last year to 59 percent this year.
