How　to　motivate　entrepreneurial　passion　is　an　essential　issue　in　entrepreneurship　research.　Although　individual　factors　have　been　tested,　national-level　factors　are　overlooked.　This　study　focuses　on　the　national　entrepreneurial　environments　in　China　and　South　Korea　and　employs　a　person-centred　approach　to　identify　the　different　types　of　entrepreneurs　according　to　their　passion　level　and　structure　and　determine　how　entrepreneurial　environments　link　to　various　profiles　of　entrepreneurial　passion.　The　results　showed　that　although　non-passionate　and　explorative　entrepreneurs　exist　in　China　and　South　Korea,　expansive　and　mature　entrepreneurs　are　unique　in　China,　while　conservative　and　growing　entrepreneurs　are　unique　to　South　Korea.　To　enhance　entrepreneurial　passion,　the　Chinese　government　should　improve　entrepreneurship　education　and　training,　and　the　South　Korean　government　should　provide　better　entrepreneurship　policies　and　socioeconomic　conditions.
