Abstract
Abstract This article explores South Korea’s evolving role and state practice in the realm of international law since its admission to the United Nations in 1991. It highlights Korea’s transformation from a recipient of international aid to an active contributor to global peacekeeping, development assistance, and international criminal justice. The analysis delves into key aspects of Korea’s international engagement, including its approach to territorial disputes, constitutional commitment to peace, and participation in human rights treaties. Particular attention is given to Korea’s domestic implementation of international legal obligations and its complex relationship with third-party dispute resolution, as exemplified by the Liancourt Rocks dispute with Japan. By evaluating Korea’s state practice and legal commitments, the article sheds light on its broader implications for international law and diplomacy.
