	South Korea Foreign Economic Relations
		Foreign economic assistance was essential to the country's recovery from the Korean War in the 1950s and to economic growth in the 1960s because it saved Seoul from having to devote scarce foreign exchange to the import of food and other necessary goods, such as cement.
		South Korea became increasingly integrated into the international capital market; from the late 1960s to the mid- 1980s, development was financed with a series of foreign loans, two-thirds of which came from private banks and suppliers' credits.
		South Korean officials and businesspeople, however, complained that the already rapid appreciation of the won was slowing economic growth and threatening exports.
