Abstract

This report first examines the international presence of South Korea’s design industry, based on official statistical data compiled by KIDP. It then assesses how digital transformation — an overarching force reshaping the economy — is influencing the operational and transactional environment of the design industry, using evidence from a firm-level survey conducted by the Korea Institute for Industrial Economics and Trade (KIET). Through this review, the study aims to examine whether digital transformation could serve as a key driver for strengthening the global competitiveness and export performance of Korea’s design sector.
