This paper is to conduct intra-industry trade analysis including general trade competitiveness analysis in order to evaluate the change of quality competitiveness in the Korea steel industry in trade with Japan during the period of 2000-2014. First, Korean steel industry appears to be weak such as plate, bar & section steel, steel materials, etc except competitive ‘other steel products’ in the trade with Japan. Especially, it shows that competitiveness of plate, steel materials appears to be weak. However, competitiveness towards Japan is weak, that degree is inclined to improve. Second, the most of South Korea’s steel items were measured as the comparative advantage. In particular, plate and bar are appeared still to maintain the comparative advantage. Third, as intra-industry trade is analyzed in order to evaluate the qualitative trade competitiveness in the trade with Japan, Korean steel industry’s improvement of qualitative competitiveness in the trade with Japan in almost every items during previous 14 years were not found based on trade volume itself in overall steel industry. However, in terms of number of item, as VIITL is sharply reduced, VIITH is maintained the level of 2000 and HIIT is pretty much enlarged, it is acknowledged that quality competitiveness and general competitiveness in Korean steel industry were improved. But, it shows that Korea is exporting much more inferior quality steel products rather than exporting superior quality steeel products.
