Korea is a country that has a small land and no underground resources such as oil and relies on human resources. Moreover, there was a war divided into South and North Korea, and even now, unification has not been achieved, so the security risk is very unfavorable. Nevertheless, South Korea has achieved remarkable economic growth and Last year, South Korea's GDP per capita finally surpassed that of Japan. In addition, South Korea has become a leading country in the information and communication field because it has invested heavily in related fields since a long time ago. In particular, recently, science and technology such as AI are changing the world. Therefore, the government should focus on systematic and continuous investment in basic science research with a long-term perspective, even if there are no significant results immediately.
