Chapter 18 - Modern Korea
Korea is now becoming a mix of the past, present and future with a wonderful history, a fast changing modern generation and an avid interest in the future - especially given Korea's interest in technological development.
100 - Employment and the 386 Generation
The way of thinking is different with the latest generation, as opposed to how things were in Korea in the 1980s and 1990s. More on the Korean 386 generation and working in South Korea.
101 - Birth rates and Graduate Employment
Next we take a look at the latest generation by starting with birth rates, looking at graduate employment and pension funds and the possible future for investment in Korea.
102 - Korean Hospital Experience
