China has been actively supporting LED industry as a future strategic industry. Korea in the LED industry, which is competing and cooperating with China, should be well acquainted with China's LED industry trends and development policies. Particularly, China's LED industry varies from region to region, so diverse approaches are needed when cooperating with or advancing into different regions. However, existing reseraches on Chinese LED industry are rather limited to the introduction of development strategies and current situation at the national level, and there are few literature on approaches by region. In this paper, analyses on the state of China's LED industry are embodied in specific fields including policy, markets, competition, import, regional distribution, value chain, and etc.; thus presented are some practical policay implications for Korea.
