Since China's the “Belt and Road” initiative came out in 2013, it has been widely concerned by the international community. The initiative welcomes many neighboring countries to “hitch a ride” and share this international public product. Especially in Korean Peninsula, although the initiative has not yet realized the docking, it has been widely studied by Korea academic circles. In 2017, President Moon Jaein successfully visited China, bringing the economic and trade exchanges between the two countries back on track. Also, the DPRK and the ROK successfully jointly participated in the Pyeongchang Winter Olympic Games, and achieved positive events such as Panmunjom talks and Moon's visit to Pyongyang. The DPRK and the United States also held two talks, and Northeast Asia returned to the positive trend of peace and development. Under this background, it is time to study the strategic docking between China and South Korea through the “Belt and Road” initiative. Also, the academic circles of China and Korea are at a good time to expand exchanges and enhance dialogue in the theme of regional cooperation. Therefore, it is necessary to understand how the Korean academic circles studied the “Belt and Road”, and what characteristics these related papers have. This study collated the papers which are published in KCI, and analyzed the increasing studies in the academic circles in South Korea. It found that the Korean academic circles have a higher degree of internationalization, and they focused on the key words such as the “Belt and Road”, “China”, “AIIB”, Silk Road Economic Belt”, “Eurasian initiative”, “Xi Jinping”, “China dream” and “the twenty-first Century Maritime Silk Road”. These papers have already formed a certain aggregation effect, and Korean scholars have accepted the objective facts of the “Belt and Road”, and explained its influence on various Korea’s social fields through their research results. At the end of this paper, some suggestions are put forward to promote exchanges and cooperation between the academic circles of the two countries, and to promote the strategic docking between the relevant countries.
