This study defines 'forest and mountain village cluster' as "the place, where all kinds of forest-related businesses engaged in forest production, processing and marketing; universities; research institutes; and regional administration; and agencies form a network and generate synergic effects of regional forestry innovation and vitality of mountain villages." This study also argues that it would be a good signal for forestry development, if forest and mountain village cluster closely connects forest with other activities and raises the investment efficiency through the networking of participants and integration of forest investments. Forest and mountain village cluster is beginning stage, the policy fostering the cluster should consider the followings :
1) The policy should contribute to sustainable forest management and increment of income of participants.
2) The policy should foster the forest and mountain village cluster as growth engine of regional forestry.
3) The policy should be driven stepwise on the basis of region, crops and leader's capacity.
4) The policy should be harmonized with the regional balance policy.
5) The policy should create the star cluster through selection and concentration.
