A Korea-focused personalized briefing highlights expanding opportunities in advanced industries outside the greater Seoul area, the rise of AI service startups and Hyundai Motor’s planned transition toward mobility, robotics and physical AI. The government’s National Land Transformation Strategy assigns growth engines to five poles and three special zones, including next-generation semiconductors in the central region, aerospace and defense in the southeast and smart biotechnology in Gangwon. Provincial companies may receive up to 50% more in R&D and integrated-investment tax credits, while a growth engine special subsidy is planned for large investments outside the capital region. Wrtn Technologies raised 100 billion won at a $1 billion valuation, or about 1.4 trillion won, becoming the first domestic AI service startup to reach unicorn status. Its revenue rose to 47.1 billion won last year and is targeted at 200 billion won this year. Hyundai Motor plans about 100 models, including 18 all-new vehicles, by 2030, increase global production capacity by 1.27 million units and mass-produce a software-defined vehicle with Nvidia in 2028. The briefing also examines service robots, para-aramid demand linked to AI data centers and Shinhan Financial Group’s financial, robotics and AI education programs.
