From a Tumultuous Past…

Following the Korean War, South Korea was left in ruins, impoverished, and underdeveloped. However, with a spirit of renewal, the South Korean government implemented a series of bold economic policies focused on:

• Investing in education and developing a high-quality workforce: As economist Nguyen Van A noted, “Education is the key to sustainable development.” South Korea proved this by heavily investing in education, transforming its human resources into the secret weapon behind its remarkable growth.
• Attracting foreign investment: South Korea proactively opened its economy, attracting capital and technology from developed nations like the US and Japan.
• Developing key industries: Starting with light industry, South Korea strategically shifted towards heavy and high-tech industries such as electronics, automobiles, and shipbuilding.
