A Treaty of Peace, Amity, Commerce and Navigation between the United States of America and the Kingdom of Corea or Chosen (Korean: 조·미수호통상조약; Hanja: 朝美修好通商條約), also known as the Shufeldt Treaty, was negotiated between United States and Korea’s Joseon dynasty in 1882.
The treaty was written in English and Hanja, with the final draft being accepted at Chemulpo (present day Incheon) near the Korean capital of Hanseong (now Seoul) in April and May 1884. It was Korea's first treaty with a western nation. After the United States assented to the Taft–Katsura agreement, the intervention clause was effectively nullified.
