South Korea is a very unique market till present day. Being relatively poor in terms of its natural resources, it struggled to remain competitive in the early 1960s, 1970s where commodity trading and manufacturing was driving rapid industrialization. It was not until they moved on and focused on the export industry did their growth started to pick up and subsequently, their strategy heading towards a high-tech and innovative industry made them outgrew many countries to become one of the most prominent emerging markets in the technology realm.

Why TSM South Korea?
What motivates you to join TSM?
Since I was young, I have been preparing myself to become an entrepreneur before the age of 30. The area of business I would want to venture into would encompass the know-how of using technology to drive businesses. I do my own research and study on how businesses operate in different countries - constantly thinking of ways to capitalize on these knowledge to break potential markets. I strongly believe that the knowledge I have acquired would benefit me greatly in the future when I step into the world on entrepreneurship. TSM presents me a very good opportunity to step out of the books I have read and the privilege of having first hand experience with the Korean tech market and its diverse culture.
Why South Korea?
South Korea is a very unique market till present day. Being relatively poor in terms of its natural resources, it struggled to remain competitive in the early 1960s, 1970s where commodity trading and manufacturing was driving rapid industrialization. It was not until they moved on and focused on the export industry did their growth started to pick up and subsequently, their strategy heading towards a high-tech and innovative industry made them outgrew many countries to become one of the most prominent emerging markets in the technology realm. I am very impressed with how the South Koreans managed to make such a breakthrough and at the vast amount of new creations and technologies developed in their country today.
