Abstract
China and Japan led the silver trade in east Asia since the 16 th century. China was the world's biggest silver importing country and Japan was Asia's biggest sil- ver exporting country. Joseon was influenced by these two in the silver trade, al- though only after late 17 th century they allowed the international silver trade. At the time as China's southeast coastal route deteriorated, the silver circulation route was most vibrant via Joseon en route to China's northeast. At this time Joseon ac- tively exploited the silver that was coming in large quantity from Japan for Chinese diplomacy and trade. Joseon wished to replace the indigenous products to silver for the annual tribute to China, and spent silver for the diplomacy expenses as well. However, above all most imported silver was utilized as the trade fund. As silver was utilized as the trade transaction means, beyond the ruling class's luxury items production or the diplomacy expenses, Joseon grew up to be one of the principal agents in the east Asia silver trade system. The silver trade system pos- itively contributed to the east Asian economy development, but in the late 18 th century drastically shrank and faced the crisis. Each country had to respond either by expediting the domestic production of the imports or by developing new trade products.
