History

On December 10, 1948, the South Korean government signed a ECA aid pact to fund South Korea.^[2] This created a new need for ministries handling matters related to the ECA aid, and thus, the temporary foreign capital bureau was founded in 1949.^[3] This government agency was administered directly under the prime minister, and another separate government agency handling similar affairs also coexisted under the president, but the two were later merged in 1955. As domestic industries began to develop after the Korean War, the government decided to change the direction of the said government agency. In 1961, the government agency with the modern name was officially founded.^[4]^[5]
