The establishment of the China-ROK (Changchun) International Cooperation Demonstration Zone in Changchun, capital of Northeast China's Jilin province, was announced by officials on June 29.

Located in the northeast of Changchun city, the zone covers an area totaling 210 square kilometers and will be home to many industrial parks, officials said.

These will include industrial parks for new energy vehicles and intelligent networked vehicles, information technology, equipment manufacturing, medicine and healthcare, health food, films and animation, as well as aviation logistics.

Officials said the projects in the demonstration zone will increase commerce between China and South Korea in areas including new energy vehicles, medicine, food and 5G and they added that some projects have been already under construction.

In addition, business in sectors such as artificial intelligence, the internet of things, the industrial internet, energy conservation and environment protection, as well as winter sports equipment will also be promoted.

Officials said that by the end of 2019, Jilin province had become home to more than 400 South Korean-funded companies, and with the establishment of the demonstration zone, the partnership between companies on both sides would be broadened.
