In the southern half of the Korean Peninsula， the political chaos and economic backwardness following the liberation had been preventing the development of its economy. However， the Republic of Korea (Korea) has achieved the high economic growth at an annual rate of 8.5% since 1962. Many economists have retold its Korea's successful development， and called its rapid growth as the miracle of the Han River. Though a considerable number of researches were conducted， a settled view for her growth was not established yet. The purpose of the paper is to find the main factor of Korea's recent development through the investigation of the Korean and international Input-Output (I /O) tables during 1970-90. First， the paper applies the Syrquin's method of deviation from the proportional growth (DPG) for the Korean I/O tables ， and finds the main factors of her economic growth. Secondly， the multiplier analysis or the other analytical methods in the I/O framework are used to examine the structure of the Korean economy， likewise the index of power of dispersion， sensitivity dispersion and Ozaki's unit structure method. In addition， the paper measures the internal production ratio of Korea. The paper finds that in Korea the leading sectors during the objective periods exist mainly in the manufacturing sector， likewise the industy of electric/electronics， automobile， machine and construction. On the demand side ， the leading sectors are not only in export. Investment and technological change also play important role in the growth of her output. The investment is crucial for the developing economy to expand the production frontier. The investment also makes the industrial linkages higher. Finally the paper points out that Korea's development is mainly induced by investment and indirectly by the linkage effect. That is inferred from the increase of the index of sensitivity of dispersion in all industries and the increase of Korea's internal production ratio. The paper concludes that the main factor of Korea's development in the investigated period is mainly due to investment. Its developing pattern is an investment-led growth one.
