This study, first, analyzed the current status and characteristics of US aid to the Korean fisheries industry, and second, how the economic growth and change of the Korean fisheries industry progressed due to this aid, centered on the 1950s and 1960s, before and after the Korean War armistice. Analyzed.The first US aid to Korea after liberation was GARIOA for the purpose of relief, and the fisheries sector accounted for less than 0.1% of the total aid. The government introduced ECA aid in January 1949 to revitalize the industry for the purpose of economic self-sufficiency in Korea. However, with the outbreak of the Korean War, ECA aid was focused on war relief rather than industrial revitalization, and then it was discontinued and converted to SEC aid. In the SEC and ICA, aid to the Korean fisheries industry was evident, and in particular, UNKRA's total aid to the fisheries industry was 3,657,000 dollars, which accounted for a significant portion.
Although the fisheries industry was in a state of stagnation due to the Korean War, the government sought a series of fisheries development policies, including efforts to restore fisheries with the help of US aid and foreign aid organizations. Meanwhile, after the armistice in the Korean War, the restoration of the fishery industry began in earnest. The Ministry of Commerce and Industry has embarked on several revitalization plans to build a balanced industrial structure that can guarantee minimum economic self-sufficiency in the future, including the establishment of a five-year industrial revival plan. In particular, it was possible to learn about the economic growth and change of the Korean fishery industry according to the five plans related to the fishery industry.
