Panel: Are China-South Korea ties thawing after a frozen decade?
Update: 2025-11-07
Description
Chinese President Xi Jinping has visited South Korea for the first time in 11 years.
He sat down with South Korean President Lee Jae-myung on the sidelines of the APEC summit in Gyeongiu.
This came after years of tension after Seoul decided to host the US THAAD missile defense system in 2016.
Are we witnessing a reset in China-South Korea relations? What is driving this shift, and could South Korea’s approach offer a model for other U.S. allies navigating relations with China?
Host Zhao Ying is joined by Rong Ying, Chair Professor at the School of International Studies at Sichuan University; Lee Pei May, Assistant Professor of Political Science at the International Islamic University Malaysia; Digby James Wren, External Relations Advisor to the Royal Academy of Cambodia.
