Research Abstract |
In this research, I aimed to clarify how the perceptions of neighboring countries in Japan and Korea have been interlinked and mutually influenced in complicated ways being affected by the changes of geographical worldviews and national identities in each country. Base on reviews of the literature and the case studies, I argue that the perceptions of neighboring countries or people in both countries have been influenced not only by bilateral or mutual relation but also by multilateral relations of neighboring countries and the changes of geographical or geopolitical worldviews and national identities in each country.
