Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to examine the development and the problems of the Trans-Siberian Railroad (TSR) and the Trans-Korean Railroad (TKR) linking project from the aspect of regional economic security, focusing specifically on the debate regarding the obstacles and opportunities of the project. The chapter begins with a brief examination of the historical background of the TSR. To fully understand the importance of this project for bilateral Russian-South Korean relations, the chapter assesses the political, economic, and regional implications of transportation linkage. The chapter contends that this project has the potential to enhance bilateral regional economic security cooperation between Russia and South Korea because economic synergy can be created by transportation links, by eliminating barriers, and promoting cross-border interactions.
