>Seoul plans to provide 7.8 trillion won ($6.4 billion) over seven years to develop domestic production of 100 materials, parts and manufacturing equipment supplied mostly by Japan. The government sees these products as crucial to South Korea's export-oriented economy.
>Investing heavily in an industry dominated by Japanese manufacturers will eat up resources that could be put to use in areas where Japan is weaker. That could then be used as a bargaining chip in negotiations with Japan. Seoul also risks spending billions on inputs for manufacturing techniques that could soon become obsolete.
>The government's blueprint envisions securing a stable supply of 20 critical products from non-Japanese sources within a year, and sets a five-year target for the remaining 80.
>South Korea's high-tech industries developed by importing technologies from Japan, so they remain highly dependent on Japanese materials, components and manufacturing equipment. As a result, South Korea has been running an annual trade deficit of $20 billion to $30 billion with Japan.
>The case for pursuing domestic production is clear. If Japan stops supplying key inputs to South Korea, the country's all-important chip industry will grind to a halt. Semiconductors account for 20% of South Korean exports, so any serious disruption in production could greatly hamper growth.
>South Korean suppliers also face the risk of changing technology. Constant innovation in chips and displays can lead to frequent shifts in the materials and parts required to make them. The main display technology for computers and smartphones, for example, is moving from liquid-crystal displays to organic light-emitting diodes, and then to micro LEDs.

Umm why is it a mistake?
It’s not a new policy. The localization plan had been in action around 2010, and it worked. The plan ended in 2018, so they are ramping up new plans & massive budgets.
Korea is taking a slow but steady approach to lower their reliance of Japan.
Pic related is Korea’s reliance percentage of Japan’s materials, components & equipments.
Based gooks. Can;t wait for them to become china Protectorate.
It's a good thing for Corea and a bad thing for Japan.

Fucking retards.
>Ultra high quality electronics manufacturing moves closer towards China and North Korea, increasing the probability of intrusion into factories and 0-day exploits.
Sasuga South Korea, you fucked us all over in your greed. Rather than investing in the mechanical hardware space you decided to empower your mortal enemies to the detriment of the world. I hope your perceived national economic independence was worth it.
But it's insectoid gooks who are obsessed with their victim complex. Do a reality check, dog eater.
I really don't care.
The nips are the ones who're going to lose and it's hilarious.
They literally can't wait to reunite under daddy Kim Jong-un just to shove it to the US, Japan and China, because they think that they can challenge the rest of the world from their little peninsula swallowed up by a totalitarian communist regime. There is something deeply fucked up in gooks' psychology.
Gookboo incel cope. Korea is already feeling the heat from China, they won't be able to compete with Winnie the Pooh in electronics in the next decade. Samsung and LG poured billions into OLED and it's a flopped tech that will never pick up sales, because consumers shun burn-in issues and low brightness when HDR is the main talking point. China will build OLED factories to squeeze Samsung and LG out of the phone panel market and spearhead microLED development.
>Japanese companies control 70% to 90% of the global markets for hydrogen fluoride and the two other crucial materials. There are no challengers to their market dominance. South Korean manufacturers will have to spend huge amounts of time and money to catch up.
lol sure thing
It's like they're trying to beat each other at trade, which ought to be a friendly thing.

How exactly is that a bad thing?
Soulless plastic gooks don't even have anime. Sad!
There is a recession coming. It would be stupid to invest now.
It's better to invest in your own country than in a foreign one.
Samsung might not need those materials in large quantities after all.
they have plenty of anime and are infact responsible for drawing like 90% of japanese anime nowadays. way to be a retard, waeguk-ssi.

Imagine talking in third-person out of shame
Investing in anything right before a recession is bad, regardless of whether it's in your country or not.
Japan is the mortal enemy of Korea you retarded mutt.
Retarded capitalist logic here.
ok chingchongpingpong commie

Imagine being a gook NPC lapping up nationalist government propaganda, lmao

The actual state of Jow Forums.
>kys jap
You know literally nothing about Korea.
North Korea cannot possible be a mortal enemy because they did not exist even 80 years ago. Koreans are mostly indifferent towards china.
But they actively are opposed to Japan. Currently there is a massive boycott Japan movement going on that is mostly rooted in their hatred of Japan for their occupation of Korea.
Stupid mutt thinking the rest of the world has been brainwashed by the same media propaganda as they were. Kys
I'm European.
Ar cumskins rook the same
A mutt is not an American. It's anyone who blindly follows Americas dumbass ideology. Which you clearly do.
Investing to earn profit before recession is bad, I agree, but that’s not the case.
Is that even real? Oh my goy!
>Viewing "mortal enemy" purely through a cultural lens and not a materialist or militarist lens.
Just because your country's establishment teaches you to hate Japan in school does not mean it isn't shitting itself when thinking about artillery barrages from the DMZ or how China is rapidly expanding development in various shock-and-awe military tech like ekranoplanes and cruise missiles. The indifference your people have to those two countries is purely a function of the alliance to the US prior to 2016. The fact you haven't woke up to the reality that you're now alone with two countries willing to take opportunities in undermining your countries sovereignty doesn't mean they aren't your mortal enemies.
You're dumb as a rock.
Explain how what I said is wrong. I'll wait.
t. seething small dicked chink manlet losing his women to white Chads
you know every teacher in the US of Ayylmao has to sign a thing saying they wont boycott israel
I said I'm European as in Europe, sorry your inbred schizo brain can't understand written English.
> It's anyone who blindly follows Americas dumbass ideology.
What ideology, you sub-60IQ mong? If you really think that capitalism is an ideology, not default economic system in all countries that worth a damn you should educate yourself a bit, it originated in England.
No Koreans are constantly worrying or obsessed with artillery barrages. Neither is their government.
A mortal enemy is not someone who did not even exist 80 years ago when the country has thousands of years of history. North Koreans are Koreans. Korean people know that. They don't fucking think their own people are their mortal enemies.
Go continue getting brainwashed by more American propaganda and gtfo this board.
Did I mention capitalism? American ideology extends far beyond capitalism you moron
t. 50 cent army mouth piece
Yeah, I guess the ideology in the rest of the world is not to suck up to the CCP and Winnie the Pooh
I see no further point in continuing to talk to subhuman trash like you. Hurry up and kill yourself.
Chink NPCs are in frenzy ITT

Explain the attached image. It's about as healthy as a shooting drill in a public school.
>A mortal enemy is not someone who did not even exist 80 years ago when the country has thousands of years of history.
I already called you out on using just a cultural lens in evaluating mortal enemies. I'll do it again here just to get it through your skull: You're an idiot for just worrying about economic competition from Japan.

got it thanks to that
>They don't fucking think their own people are their mortal enemies.
Kim literally doesn't give two shits if he nukes Seoul or sends norks south to die in droves at the American bullets. Gook delusion of some kind of ethnical unity beyond the 38th parallel is so fucking hilarious.
They should cry about war crimes and ask for another round of reparations.
Do you know literally anything about Korean history. Koreans don't give a fuck about Japan because of some stupid economic disputes. They could care less about that.
They care about Japans brutal occupation of Korea for nearly 40 years in which they forced thousands of women into protestitution and treated the people of Korea worse than the Nazi's treated the Jews.
KOREA BAD JAPAN GOOD
fucking weebs, I swear lmao

Lol, self-hating amerimutt has exposed himself. Britain isn't part of Europe. Try again to guess where I'm from, brainlet.
>listening to gay pop
That's a subway station. They have that because obviously north Korea having nukes makes them a threat. It does not make them their mortal enemy.
There are plenty of countries around the world that also use their subway stations as emergency shelters in case of war or disaster.
Americans are obsessed with guns for self defense, does that make their fellow Americans their mortal enemies?
And no fucking shit you would use a cultural lens to determine a cultures mortal enemy. Honestly stop spreading your totally shit opinions. I highly doubt you've ever even spoke to a Korean in your life. You'd probably ask a Korean if they were from north Korea as well.
>Proof that there is some koreans obsessing over war as part of engineering concerns is not proof that koreans are obsessing over war.
>P-plenty of countries also use their subway stations as shelters
>does that make their fellow Americans their mortal enemies?
Yes.
Why would anyone want to talk with brainwashed idiots who talk about their irrelevant historical butthurt going a few centuries back? South Cuckreans screech at Japan over wartime labor, yet North Korea lends their slave workers to China, Russia, Europe and other places to have their pay sent straight to Kim and nobody bats an eye.
seethe more, filthy jap
Yea you're clearly a retarded jap apologist. Fuck off.
>This thread
Jesus Christ Koreans are more analravaged than slavs. Don't worry Kim, it's China's turn to cuck you this time.
You still fail to grasp they very thing this argument is over.
You originally called china and north Korea koreas mortal enemies. Do you even know what that word means?
>merriam-webster.com
Koreans don't hate north Korea. Nor have they for a long time. Preparing for the fact a war may happen does not make them mortal enemies.
Seething gook. Nobody gives a shit about your pathetic non-country bitching about being occupied by Japan. You wish you were Jews crying about lampshades and everyone else listening to that, but too bad you don't even have an ounce of thair soft power.
>muh comfort wahmen
Fuck off, noodleroastie
The cultural lens is not the only lens from which you can determine who your mortal enemies are. Perhaps if you looked at international relations of countries other than between SK and Japan, you would see animosity caused by differences in economic ideology and strangleholds on resources. But because you're so obsessed with warcrimes from before you're born, you're blind to the warcrimes being currently threatened upon you by your literal neighbors who have the capacity to enact said warcrimes. Or perhaps you're drinking the koolaid that your country's elites are somehow more noble than other country's, and have every single value that the people of the country have. When I say SK's mortal enemies, I do not say SK's people's mortal enemies.
I wonder if they are gonna crawl next time to Japan to free them from the Winnie the Pooh flavour of dystopian confucian Marxism given that the US influence continues to fade and international law goes up in flames.
>country trying to become economically independent
Literally nothing wrong about this
There's no such thing as "economic independence" in a globalist capitalist system, unless you want to go full communism.
nobody even mentioned US, you pathetic ethnically cleansed Europoors are like cancer. A mere thought of your irrelevance and insignificance hurts so much you can tell it's reached all the way to the bone, as you dish it out on this board in almost every other thread while using 100% American technology. Eurosharts are truly pathetic.
How's that island rock of yours doing today?
>US influence continues to fade and international law goes up in flames.
I wonder how these two things are connected... hmm it is almost as if unilateral jingoism and strong arming your allies and disregarding international law has an impact on prestige.. hmm..
God I love the Taisho era. It was so romantic and the fashion was awesome too.
seethe mutt.
not a mutt nor American. cry more Ahmedssen.
Looks like Euros live rent free in your head, Tyrone Ramirez III.
Kill koreans. Fuck you Samsung your note 10 is bad lmao.
LG has always been dogshit.
Samsung fad is dying and Sony terebiru are king once more get fucked.
Shart cope
Deglobalization has always been a thing of revulsion to investors since it closes markets off from them and their speculation.
Imagine the butthurt if Trump actually meant his protectionism and worked to insure half of all technology consumption was domestically produced.
>ITT
>fight between gook and weeb
...
This seems so self-damaging on Japan's part. Even if it results in a loss in the end it was obvious SK will just substitute for blocked imports. This is China-tier industrial policy on Japan's part.
They don't have a chemical industry and it takes roughly up to 10 years to setup the manufacturing.
Japan is the sole supplier to the world of these goods? Presumably they buy from Japan now because they're closer, but surely they can buy from Europe or North America or wherever while they build up domestic supply.
>that the US influence continues to fade
You eurocucks and japs are as delusional as ever. Next time, because you're unfaithful, spineless cowards who will surely betray us, you're both getting the nuke and we'll finally free of your burdensome existence
>Park Jae-keun, a professor of semiconductor engineering at Hanyang University, says that Samsung is sourcing extreme ultraviolet photoresist from a Belgium-based company. According to Park, Samsung has bought six to 10 months' worth of the chemical, which is used to deposit circuit patterns onto silicon wafers in a cutting-edge chipmaking process.
>Park, a former executive at Samsung in charge of semiconductor materials technology, did not reveal the name of the Belgian supplier, but analysts say that it is likely EUV Resist Manufacturing & Qualification Center, a joint venture established in 2016 by Japanese material company JSR and IMEC, a Belgian research center. The joint venture is majority owned by JSR Micro, a Belgian subsidiary of JSR.

If they weren't Samsung wouldn't have to buy materials from a European branch of the Japanese chemicals company.
