Meanwhile, Korea is trapped in a \"concentration of talent into medical schools,\" and the number of places for science and technology talent is steadily decreasing.\u003cbr\u003e In a society where medical school is seen as the only path to success, talented individuals are choosing professional qualifications over research and development, or are moving abroad in search of broader opportunities and autonomy.\u003cbr\u003e This suggests that the foundation of future core fields that determine the nation's competitiveness is gradually collapsing.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBased on the original, popular documentary, this book restores the message of the \"Talent War\" in a multi-layered way by revealing for the first time voices from domestic and international research sites, unpublished statistics, and interviews that were not fully captured on TV.\u003cbr\u003e Centering on the fundamental question of Korean society—“Why do we no longer dream of becoming scientists?”—the discussion on national sustainability extends to the education system, national strategy, and social structure as a whole.\u003cbr\u003e This book highlights the fact that the current reality of neglecting science and technology talent goes beyond individual career paths and threatens the future of the Republic of Korea.

conduct cutting-edge research in each field has changed the paradigm of AI research.” Ultimately, DeepSec’s success was possible because it was based on a “technology talent ecosystem” fostered by

quickly.\u003cbr\u003e While South Korea gradually declined, China continued its upward curve, and the two countries' graphs crossed around 2021.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"Deep Seek is Just the Beginning\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn short, it is not a method of predicting potential and then selecting and nurturing talent, but rather a method of supporting achievements through a process of free development.\u003cbr\u003e The selection system was also moving away from being solely based on test scores.\u003cbr\u003e While college entrance exams remain the primary route, other pathways are now officially recognized, including international Olympiads, industry-academia projects, and corporate internships.\u003cbr\u003e The system design reflected the recognition that not only students with high test scores have the capacity for innovation, and that some students with high creativity have below-average grades.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --- From \"From Trade War to

and technology as a means of national survival, and are promoting the acquisition of talent as a strategic resource for the future.\u003cbr\u003e Who will nurture and secure more talent, and how will they establish the structure? The world is now in the midst of a war to seize this opportunity.\u003cbr\u003e And China is at the forefront of this trend.\u003cbr\u003e Technological advancement is set as a national task, and education, industry, and policy move toward a single goal.\u003cbr\u003e For example, when the central government issues a five-year plan, companies, schools, and public institutions develop detailed talent development plans in line with it. \u003cbr\u003eWe move away from a system focused on early selection or an elite few, prioritizing a balance of universal education and opportunity that strengthens the base, and intensively nurturing talent by evaluating problem-solving skills and creativity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e On the other hand, Korean talents flock to medical schools.\u003cbr\u003e One of the key reasons for this is the social atmosphere that pursues only \"certificates that guarantee a secure future\" within the logic of stability behind national policies that emphasize strengthening technological competitiveness.\u003cbr\u003e While the nation's vision of fostering science and technology remains intact, the short-term performance-oriented evaluation system and low compensation are accelerating the exodus of science and engineering students from medical schools, gradually weakening the technological ecosystem.\u003cbr\u003e Basic science departments, facing structural decline, and industries struggling to fill their vacancies with advanced technical personnel are gradually losing their momentum for growth. \u003cbr\u003eThe book diagnoses that the current reality in Korea is that the crisis in the science and engineering fields leads to industrial stagnation, and industrial stagnation inevitably leads to a sense of anxiety.\u003cbr\u003e In an era of technological supremacy without guns, the world is once again being tested for the balance between technology and humanity, between efficiency and dignity.\u003cbr\u003e This book confronts the reality of the anxiety that dominates Korean society amidst this immense competition and questions its unwavering values ​​and direction.\u003cbr\u003e If technological advancement is for the good of humanity, where should we go now?\u003cbr\u003e \"Talent War\" is a desperate quest to reclaim fading dreams and hopes, and the final question toward a better future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e“It was difficult to fit everything into a 47-minute broadcast!”\u003cbr\u003e A record of the great questions posed to Korean society and the fierce responses.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Talent War\" began with a fundamental question: what values ​​are our society cultivating talent based on? \u003cbr\u003eTo answer this question, the production team visited the sites where China cultivates technological talent, from a startup lab in Hangzhou, China, to Zhejiang University, which produced DeepSec CEO Liang Wenfeng, to the site of China's college entrance exam, the Gaokao, and recorded in detail the scenes of young researchers working towards a single goal at the center of cutting-edge industries.\u003cbr\u003e It captures China's talent development system, where technology operates as the \"road for the nation.\"\u003cbr\u003e At the same time, in Korea, we closely analyzed how social anxiety leads to a \"competition for stable jobs\" by tracking the entrance exam sites and science and engineering education and research sites in major school districts in the metropolitan area.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e What I encountered in the process was that Korea's talent development system is driven by the emotion of fear: 'How can we avoid failure?' \u003cbr\u003eThis has resulted in the constant reproduction of competition as a tool to stifle individual choice and avoid anxiety in society as a whole.\u003cbr\u003e The book follows the documentary's sharp perspective and raises the fundamental question, \"What is talent?\" by asking, \"What are we competing for?\"\u003cbr\u003e A society that values ​​anxiety as its order will inevitably reveal its limitations. This book diagnoses Korea's current state while simultaneously urging the search for better values ​​that will drive society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eKorean society consumed by anxiety\u003cbr\u003e Social questions that remain after the logic of competition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Immediately after the broadcast ended, the short phrase, “China is crazy about engineering schools, Korea is crazy about medical schools,” quickly emerged as an important keyword.\u003cbr\u003e It soon led to a social debate surrounding the topic of 'talent'. \u003cbr\u003eViewers interpreted the sentences, each from their own perspectives, as they condensed the direction of education, the hierarchy of industry, and the density of anxiety felt by each generation.\u003cbr\u003e Teachers and instructors thought about the direction their students wanted to take, parents thought about their children's lives, researchers thought about the future of technology, and students thought about where they stood.\u003cbr\u003e And the majority of society members once again reflected on the meaning of the anxiety surrounding South Korea.\u003cbr\u003e \"Talent War\" visualizes the anxiety in Korean society by linking issues of education, industry, generation, and system together.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e What \u0026lt;Talent War\u0026gt; ultimately asks us to do is reflect on the direction of our society.\u003cbr\u003e After a period of dazzling development, we finally achieved abundance, but behind it all, we were trapped in a new poverty called insecurity. \u003cbr\u003eCompetition for jobs is intensifying by the day, but trust has disappeared. Everyone was just running to live better, but when they came to their senses, they ended up running to avoid falling.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, the book argues that it is time for all members of society living in an age of uncertainty to pause for a moment and critically consider what to preserve and what to discard, and above all, it is time for the foundation for this change to be reorganized at the institutional level as soon as possible.\u003cbr\u003e It also subtly shows that the power to overcome crises is already inherent in our society, suggesting the possibility of hope. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 5, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192 pages | 148*210*20mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9791173575686\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1173575685 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43894488662058,"sku":"123470","price":31.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/03a8a909bbe59a8eb73b3f686bd92c30.jpg?v=1765435156","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/123470","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
