Abstract
By the end of the 1950s, especially after US economic assistance was drastically cut and replaced by loans, the vulnerability of South Korean national capital was exposed.

However, it was different from current Korean chabol capital because of its mercantile characteristics (Byun, H.Y., 1985, p. 215; Chung, Y.H., 1981, p. 148).
