Malgré ce rang, Incheon est depuis longtemps le prolongement maritime et industriel d’une capitale située à seulement 30 km et qui concentre l’essentiel des fonctions décisionnelles du pays: 96% des sièges sociaux en 1995 (Hong, 1996).

La situation semble néanmoins tourner depuis peu à l’avantage d’Incheon, puisque la ville a fait l’objet d’investissements de grande ampleur et d’échelle nationale. En effet, le projet en cours de zone franche et le rayonnement de l’aéroport international traduisent la volonté coréenne de devenir le «hub» financier et logistique de l’Asie du Nord-Est, notamment face à la Chine. 1. 2.
