Answer:

1, I don't think it's Korea-Japan FTA. It's Japan-Korea-China trilateral FTA which was discussed recently.

I'll answer other questions it as such.

2, No.

3, I don't think it will bring much benefit to Japan. But don't get me wrong. I basically like Korea. But this FTA is not going to be beneficial for Japan.

>but how's the japanese general opinion toward TPP?? which is almost the same as FTA??

Those who are for and against TPP are really like 50:50. But it's reflecting interest of each industry.

I think Korean people who are against Korea-US FTA are opposing it, saying that cheap US foods will devastate Korean agriculture. So it's the same for Japan.

Those Japanese who are opposing TPP are mainly those who are working in agriculture. They are wary of cheap American foods.

On the other hand, those who are for TPP are mainly people in exporting industry like car, machinery, etc.

>are you postive to TPP?

I'm not positive.
