Another novel research is on Mukoyoshi (son-in-law) system of Japan, which had facilitated the business succession of LLE in the history of Japan. Mokoyoshi traces its record back to Medieval Age of Japan. Currently as well, it is widely used in major family LLE, such as Toyota, Suzuki, Nitendo, etc.
Dr. Jung WookShim, a Korean scholar at Kansai University spent years and empirically tested the hypothesis of Mukoyoshi being a crucial factor for succession.
