It has been commonly accepted that Japan had "lost decades" after the crash of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 1990 while Korea underwent a successful economic restructuring after the 1997-98 Asian financial crisis. However, Korean is now facing rapid economic slowdown and it appears that it is catching up with Japan in its economic stagnation. This research investigates underlying reasons for the imminent convergence of economic performance between the two countries away from the seemingly divergent performance between the two in the 2000s. By grouping views on the Japan's stagnation into (1) the structuralist view, (2) the balance sheet recession view, and (3) the population bottleneck view, the research attempts to make a systematic comparison of the causes of growth slowdown in the two countries. It also assesses the validity of the 'Abenomics' and 'Choi-nomics' as policy responses to their (imminent) economic stagnation.
