Features: Should the future Korean economy face the Chinese economic circle or the Pacific economic circle? Is the future history of Korea continental or maritime? In other words, should Korea choose China or the United States? How will the issue of the Korean Peninsula be resolved in the future? What is the future path for Northeast Asia? Lee Chenglü's Era of Symbiosis offers unique answers to these questions. – Era of Symbiosis is a work of original thought by Lee Chenglü, which is beneficial for Chinese readers to understand and grasp the sentiments of Koreans, and is highly recommended. – Song Chengyou Era of Symbiosis author Lee Chenglü proposes his own views on the establishment of a Northeast Asian free trade zone and how Korea can become a logistics hub in Northeast Asia. – Huang Youfu The symbiotic model elaborated by the author of this book has gone beyond the scope of addressing issues between North and South Korea, expanding to encompass various issues among all Northeast Asian countries. This can be considered a valuable breakthrough. – Zhang Ying Era of Symbiosis is filled with a compassionate spirit, presenting wise and philosophical insights. "Establishing a symbiotic world" is a new roadmap for the future development of Korea, the Korean Peninsula, and the entire Northeast Asia. "Symbiosis" refers to the interdependent relationship between people of different ethnicities and nations, where mutual benefit is essential for survival and the absence of it would lead to failure. Currently, Korea is struggling with indecision in its foreign policy, the nuclear crisis on the Korean Peninsula remains unresolved, and the entire Northeast Asia is still riddled with conflicts and divisions. The main reasons lie in the lack of sincerity, love, and mutual trust, as well as the absence of more shared interests between ethnic groups and different countries. Therefore, Northeast Asia needs to create a three-dimensional coordinated cooperative space, a symbiotic world, where the cooperation of manufacturing, finance, information industries, and culture among countries overlaps and blends, and where differences in language, culture, religion, and systems are overcome and transcended. By signing a Northeast Asian free trade agreement and constructing a high-speed railway spanning Asia and Europe from Tokyo to London, not only can the Korean Peninsula and the entire Northeast Asia thrive, but it will also bring about significant changes in the global economic and political landscape.
