"We need a whole new paradigm, a fresh concept, to develop this country. Ships and semiconductors were not Korean industries. We adopted those products from the outside. The way forward is to pursue technological innovations in a way that only Koreans can. We were conquered by Japan for 36 years. During the Korean war, so many people were killed. The result is a hungry, fighting spirit that other countries find hard to match. Our lab has worked 365 days for 15 years. This concentration and dilligence were really needed. Western cultures cannot understand and cannot endure the hardship. If we deveote ourselves for a few more decades, I strongly believe we wll develop into one of the most advanced countries in the world. This is my dream." Dr. Hwang
