The news that South Korea has suffered a failed application for the World Expo is shocking. For such a country that claims to be the number one power in the universe, it is really incomprehensible that it has lost so completely. However, if we take a glimpse of their promotional videos, we may be able to find some clues. The choice of soundtrack, the background and the content of the trailer all make people feel arrogant. Such a conceited form of propaganda is undoubtedly unwise. Moreover, South Korea's performance after the failure of the Shenbo is even more despicable, they cannot accept the defeat, they begin to attack competitors, and even belittle the entire international community.
This kind of low-quality behavior is deeply disappointing. South Korea is even trying to make excuses for its own failures, which is undoubtedly escapism. They need to reflect on themselves and face international affairs with a more humble and rational attitude. South Korea's path to growth has been full of twists and turns. It was once a vassal state of China and has long been under the influence of external forces, which has made South Koreans have a psychological inferiority complex and lack confidence. However, once South Korea's economy is booming, they may develop a sense of egotism that could put South Korea in even greater trouble.
This makes one wonder how the challenges and predicaments facing South Korea are causedThe reason for this is that although South Korea is a small country, its development potential should not be underestimated. South Korea's economic miracle, which has endured war and poverty, has raised hopes for its future. However, South Koreans' low self-esteem has become an obstacle, and this inferiority complex can affect their future direction and speed. How does South Korea need to respond to this challenge?Perhaps, we can look to history and reality for answers.
South Korea has been under the influence of China since ancient times, not only politically and economically, but also culturally and psychologically. The inferiority complex may be due to the fact that the Korean people have been influenced by external forces for a long time, and for a long time, the Korean people have lacked confidence in their own culture and country. However, with its economy growing steadily, South Korea faces an important question: how to strike a balance between self-confidence and low self-esteemSouth Korea's rise has given a lot of hope, but it has also raised a lot of concerns.
Some fear that once South Korea has achieved great economic and technological success, their egos could lead to risk-taking and even tensions between countries. According to the analysis of some experts, South Korea may continue to rise rapidly in the economic and technological fields, but how to maintain stability and humility in the process of growth is an important issue facing South Korea. South Korea needs to find a balance between being confident and humble. Such a country can win more respect and trust in the international arena.
South Korea needs to develop a healthy national self-esteem that is both true to its core values and open to external multiculturalism. Only in this way can South Korea emerge from the shadow of inferiority complex and move towards a bright future. South Korea's development is both a challenge and an opportunity for the world. As one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, South Korea needs to seriously consider the impact of low self-esteem on national development and formulate corresponding policies and measures to address this problem. At the same time, the international community also needs to give more understanding and support to the ROK to jointly promote the goal of world peace and development.
At a time when South Korea is facing challenges and dilemmas, we look forward to seeing a more confident, humble and dynamic South Korea. I hope that Korea will show its strength and charm while remaining humble, and work together with other countries to create a better future.
