    which ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations) has signed a free trade agreement

    RoK signed a joint statement on comprehensive economic cooperation between the
    two sides, affirming their wish to establish the ASEAN-Korea Free Trade Area
    (AKFTA) covering the fields of trade in goods, trade in services, and
