South Korea has experienced rapid economic development from an agriculture-based economy to the 11th largest economy in the world. This was achieved through a focus on technology and innovation, improvements to trade and exports, and macroeconomic stability. However, the COVID-19 pandemic caused a decrease to South Korea's economy. South Korea responded quickly and effectively to the pandemic through widespread testing, contact tracing, and other public health measures. Key challenges include an aging population and international trade competition, which South Korea is addressing through reforms, stimulus programs, and investments in areas like 5G and artificial intelligence.
