The main purpose of this research is to understand and identify the variables, which significantly affect the firm's export performance. To do this, I utilized the resource-based view(RBW) and network theory as theoretical backgrounds. I proposed eleven hypotheses to verify what kinds of resources and capabilities of the firm can significantly affect the export performance mostly based on the previous studies. The results are as follows: First, the results show us that the technological capabilities affects the firm's export performance significantly. Second, the finding shows that the general resource-based view factors that is, the top management's commitments regarding export activities, product differentiation, cost variables except technological capabilities and FTA consulting variables can not significantly affect the firm's export performance. Third, the variable of the strength of alliance relationship can significantly affect export performance such as export ratio, export growth rate, export profitability, but this variable does not affect significantly in strategic performance of export. Also, the finding shows us that the results of the correlation analysis strengthen the results of the regression analysis.
