South Korea is one of the developed countries in Asia. In addition to K-pop, Korea has successfully introduced Korean Wave to the world famous for its K-Drama, technology, even beauty products. This is one of the reasons why Korea is a target for turists including Indonesians travel to it, whether it is to watch concerts, just touring (a little hoping to see Running Man shoots, hehe), skincare hunting that has “best quality”, or even winning some competitions that provide free trip facility to Korea.
Therefore, it is very interesting to see the relationship between Indonesia and South Korea itself. There are some similarities between South Korea and Indonesia, such as the Japanese colonialism (of course it is not something to be proud of), just as free as in August 1945, it's just that Korea is two days faster than Indonesia.
But reflecting on that, the independent Korea of August 15, 1945, within 72 years of being one of Asia's tigers, is a modern, sophisticated country with the fastest internet connections in the world, while maintaining its cultural customs. They are able to rise up against poverty and become the fastest developed country in history.
Indonesia and Korea's initial "Strategic Partnership" relationship to "Special Strategic Partnership" is a good step to advance Indonesia. Armed with cooperation, we expect this to have a positive impact for both countries.
One of the important points in this partnership is to launch creative industry in Indonesia is expected to be a lucky point to make Indonesia better. This can make the middle-low Indonesian society continue to create and introduce the handicrafts of Indonesia and the craft of Korea into the economic power of both countries.
Increasing defense and foreign relations between South Korea and Indonesia is also very important, for the smooth and security of both countries. In addition, government efforts in improving the quality of human resources look very serious, it can be proved by the number of scholarships provided by the government of South Korea and Indonesia itself.
In addition to the efforts of the Government, we hope that the next generation of the nation will also participate in advancing the beloved country by studying earnestly, becoming qualified human resources so as to create jobs and improve the economy of the State.
From that, we expect the future of Indonesia to become a developed and strong country with a generation who loves the country. We also hope from this cooperation, the two countries can continue to support each other, strengthen and become strong. And to the younger generation, let us cultivate a sense of nationalism towards our country and learn from developed countries so that we can rise, advance and invincible.
