DESCRIPTION:The era following globalization\, marked by increasing protecti
 onism\, geo-political tensions and events like Covid-19\, has led to 'clos
 ed borders' in physical\, economic and regulatory senses. Yet\, global con
 nections exists through digital\, economic and legal channels. This paper 
 examines how India and South Korea\, as key Indo-Pacific middle powers\, m
 aintain and evolve their bilateral ties amid challenges\, focusing on lega
 l issues in trade agreements\, data privacy and judicial co-operation. Dra
 wing on the 'Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement' (CEPA) and emer
 ging frameworks like the 'Global Cross-Border Privacy Rules' (CBPR)\, it a
 rgues that legal mechanisms enable "being global" despite de-globalization
  trends. Through a comparative analysis\, the paper highlights opportuniti
 es and obstacles\, proposing enhanced co-operation for resilient global li
 nkages\, offering insights into how Asian perspectives can inform world-hi
 storical approaches to connectivity in an era of closed borders.
