Abstract
Over the past year, China has launched a series of trade measures against South Korea, including the anti-dumping investigations to POM plastic and polycrystalline silicon, the extending of anti-dumping duties upon single-mode fiber, among others. Recently, 19 batches of cosmetics made in Korea were not allowed to enter the Chinese market. Even more, the plans for two Korean classical musicians' performances in China were suspended. The media interpreted those incidents as China's retaliation against South Korea's decision to deploy the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense anti-missile system.
Keywords : THAAD, China-South Korea Trade, Anti-dumping Investigation
