Despite the deterioration of bilateral relations in politics and culture, the mutual interdependence embedded in inter-firm relationships remained robust across the two countries; For three core items related to semiconductor manufacturing, Japanese firms that had previously been the source of exports shifted to production in South Korea or indirect shipments from Japanese companies' subsidiaries in China and Taiwan. This material summarizes this episode as a case study for understanding the characteristics of the semiconductor industry, focusing on the three core items necessary for semiconductor manufacturing or used for semiconductor products (photoresist, hydrogen fluoride, and fluorinated polyimide).
