「日本25人:韓国0人」は深刻…ことしのノーベル科学賞「希望みえない」=韓国
Japan's 25 cases, South Korea's 0 cases, a serious situation... South Korea sees no hope for this year's Nobel Prize in science
"25:0" is the comparison of Japanese and Korean Nobel Prize winners in science. The Nobel Prize season comes every October. The Swedish Nobel Committee announced the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine on the 6th of this month.
The winners of the Physics Prize will be announced on the 7th, followed by the Chemistry Prize on the 8th. However, it is expected that no Korean will win a Nobel Prize in Science this year.
Meanwhile, unlike South Korea, which has yet to produce a single laureate, neighboring Japan has produced 25 laureates and China has three.
Why has no Korean person ever won a Nobel Prize in science? Of course, Korean science and technology research has been
It is important to consider that, since the industry only began to grow in earnest in the 1970s, the period during which it has accumulated results is short. This could be a disadvantage compared to Japan and China.
However, there are also voices of regret that "Korea's backward research environment, which is fixated on short-term results, is holding us back."
Furthermore, the concentration of scientific geniuses in medical schools is a serious problem.
Although this is not a new phenomenon, the social atmosphere in which talented people avoid science and engineering fields has also been pointed out as a major problem.
