pon arriving in Serbia four months ago, new Korean ambassador to Serbia Jaewoong Lee stated that his goal is to “double the trade exchange” between the two countries. In this interview, his first for CorD Magazine, he announces that at

least two or three more Korean companies will start doing business in Serbia, thereby joining the existing Korean business community in the country, which already employs around 10,000 people. Apart from the auto industry and the IT sector, new areas of mutual cooperation are
opening up in the fields of ecology and nuclear energy, says Ambassador Lee. He adds that connecting the two countries in the fields of culture, art and tourism is a special challenge, help in which could be provided by the global popularity of the Korean wave.
