This paper aims to assess the efficacy of the “Korean Desks” in the Philippines and Vietnam and to investigate whether this new law enforcement cooperation model could be replicated globally. As a research method, in‐depth semi‐structured interviews were conducted with a total of six Korean police officers at the Korean Desks. Three themes emerged from the interview data. First, this cooperation model has increased the sense of public safety among Korean communities and has provided higher efficiency in police cooperation. Second, factors such as no preceding model to consider, demanding workload, and high dependency on local officers have been found to be difficulties in the operations of the Korean Desks. Third, it was argued that the application of this model to a different nation would face great challenges primarily due to the high variability of sociocultural structures across nations. Findings revealed that the Korean Desk model was deeply embedded in the sociocultural environment in which it was established, and the implementation of the model was contingent upon the officers’ experiences rather than guidance from the police headquarters.

东南亚的一种新型执法合作模式及其在全球的应用检验：韩国咨询台

本文旨在评估“韩国服务台”在菲律宾和越南的效力，并研究这种新的执法合作模式是否可以在全球复制。作为研究方法，在韩国服务台对六名韩国警察进行了深入的半结构式访谈。采访数据中出现了三个主题。首先，这种合作模式提高了韩国社区之间的公共安全意识，并提高了警察合作的效率。其次，已经发现诸如韩国模式之类的困难因素，例如没有先验模型，繁重的工作量以及对当地官员的高度依赖。第三，有人认为，这种模式在不同国家的应用将面临巨大挑战，这主要是由于各国之间社会文化结构的高度可变性。调查结果表明，韩国咨询台模式已深深植根于其建立的社会文化环境中，该模式的实施取决于警官的经验，而不是警察总部的指导。
