Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Romania

The Korean Embassy in Bucharest has operated since Korea and Romania normalized relations in 1990, following the end of communist rule. Romania, the largest country in the Balkans and an EU and NATO member since 2007, has become an increasingly attractive destination for Korean manufacturing investment. Several major Korean companies have established production facilities in Romania, drawn by the country's skilled workforce, competitive costs, and access to European markets.

South Korea – Romania Diplomatic Relations

Korea and Romania established diplomatic relations in March 1990, quickly pivoting from the Cold War era when Romania had maintained ties only with North Korea. The relationship has evolved into a substantial economic partnership: Romania hosts Korean manufacturing plants in the automotive supply chain and electronics sectors. Cultural exchanges have grown alongside economic ties, with Romanian interest in Korean pop culture and language learning rising noticeably in recent years. Both countries cooperate within international frameworks including the UN and the Korea-EU partnership.

South Korea – Romania Trade & Economy

Bilateral trade between Korea and Romania has grown steadily, reaching approximately $1.5 billion in 2023. Korean exports of around $528 million are led by electronics components, machinery, and synthetic materials — many destined for Korean-invested factories operating in Romania. Romanian imports into Korea of roughly $972 million include automotive components, machinery, and manufactured goods produced partly by Korean-affiliate firms in Romania. Korean foreign direct investment has been a key driver of the expanding trade relationship.
