BEIJING, Dec. 10 (Xinhua) -- China hopes to accelerate studies on the possibility of a free trade zone with the Republic of Korea(ROK) in order to quickly implement the zone, said Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao on Monday.

During talks with ROK counterpart Han Duck Soo, Wen also urged both countries to expand mutual investment.

Wen said he hoped the two countries would realize the medium and long-term plans and push forward cooperation on environmental protection, energy resources, finance and logistics.

Trade and economic cooperation were important to the comprehensive and cooperative partnership between the two countries, he said.
