The peculiarities of overwood influence on the young growth of woody species which are the potential dominants of the broadleaved-Korean pine forests are considered. In relation to a shelterwood state the young growth can be divided into three groups: 1) species which are mainly regenerated in the openings, 2) species which are successfully regenerated both under a shelterwood and in the openings, and 3) species which are mainly regenerated under a shelterwood. It is determined that young growth distribution and height depends on the microcommunity type, as well as on the location within the opening. The regeneration conditions of most species in the opening are optimal at the distance of the first meters from the crown edge.
