Korea is the fourth largest forest country in the OECD members, with about 64 percent of the total land area being forested, after Finland (73 percent), Sweden (69 percent), and Japan (68 percent). However, because the temperature changes dramatically from season to season, it takes decades to grow trees, and most of the forest area is composed of mountain area, the actual timber resources are not enough for domestic supplement. For these reasons, about 85 percent of the nation's total wood consumption is dependent on imports, with only about 15 percent using domestic timber. Therefore, it is essential to conduct a comprehensive study on the use of fast growing species and small diameter species in Korea as a way to increase Korea's timber self-sufficiency rate. In this regard, the Paulownia tree is a valuable timber resource that suits the sentiments of the Korean people, and it is classified as a fast-growing and most value-added species among the trees living in Korea. In this study, wood qualities such as physical, mechanical, and anatomical characteristics were analyzed in order to secure basic data of Paulownia wood for more diverse uses. In addition, the research was conducted to increase the utilization of Paulownia wood by performing research based on its natural durability, drying characteristics, and wood quality modification due to thermal treatment. As a result, We believe that this research provide a basic data for the utilization of Paulownia wood for various purposes such as furniture, energy materials, and musical instruments.
