Abstract：Moon Jae-in, president of South Korea, puts forward “New Northern Policy” and “9-Bridges” strategy in 2017, which aimed to strengthen cooperation with Russia in the Far East and Arctic and to build up a new strategic corridor connecting Korean Peninsula, Russia and the European Union (EU). Both countries have already put into effect to cooperate in Far East and Arctic. The Arctic passage and the “Lena River Corridor” are designed as the principal axis of this policy. Russia responds positively to South Korea’s initiative, and practical cooperation between both countries is growing quickly. South Korea establishes all-dimensional diplomatic relations with the Republic of Sakha (Yakut) mainly relying on people-to-people exchanges. “New Northern Policy” and “9-Bridges”strategy are closely related to the interests of China. South Korea’s Arctic diplomacy with Russia, especially achievements in the Lena River Corridor, are worthy of being studied, which could serve as an example for China.
