South Koreans have no one to blame except themselves for making their economy so dependent on the US and operating as a vassal. Kinda funny how some Asians Americans were like "WE ARE NOT CHINESE!!!!" when the anit-china hate was on. They are now making TikTok "but these foreign koreans are here to help the us!!!!"
Honestly the set of choices for folks in countries where this is true is limited to:
1. Becoming a Rich Person™ so you at least benefit from the rigged system.
2. Leave to go to a place where you don't get r*ped by the rigged system.
3. Revolution.
Trump working wonders yet again.

This is the wrong way to look at it I feel. Having sharp minds is all for nought if you don't have an environment where they can soar to the heights they were meant to. Russia is exhibit A of this. America's innate power may not be in its ability to produce talent, but in the dollar's status as the world currency which gives it near unlimited VC funding and the free culture of places like Silicon Valley. That is power, granted nowadays a power that America under Trump is willing to throw away.
But China can't bet on that alone, it too has to create sources of startup funding similar to what America has and foster an environment where it not only retains Chinese talent, but attracts talent from elsewhere in the world.
Lee Jae Myung's fence sitting is going to come back and bite him, he doesn't have an option to pull a Modi, particularly not after the parade with Kim showing up as the VVVIP.
Kim be like "给你机会你不中用啊!"
The fun begins when Hanwha starts dragging their feet on the $5 billion US shipbuilding.
[HD] Hyundai—not the same Hyundai [Motor Group] whose employees were just detained by ICE—is also involved in US shipbuilding. They are both children of the OG Hyundai chaebol.

China's environment is one of extreme competition in high tech. It will literally eat iself if you don't regulate it. If one can be successful there, one can cruise anywhere in the tech scenes of the world.
How so?
That is not an innate power; that is America's greatest tool. It is not innate because it can be broken and it will be broken when people are forced to answer the question, "Why do we need to send our output to America for freely-printed American paper that Americans act like it's a privilege for us to own when we can just consume what we make, enjoy life more, and do business with our own paper?" America is masquarading as the critical consumer of the world when in fact, it is the most useless entitled freeloading country in history and everyone would be better (except Israel LOL) enjoying the fruits of their own labor in a world without America.
China's not betting on it; China's beating the US even with the USD at its peak. Its fall would only make things far too easy.
China really only needs Chinese talent from across the world and we only needed this as a jump start to when we were backward. Now, we are at the tip of every critical technology and moving faster than anyone else; we really only need to develop in our own environment while sucking in the leftover Chinese talent abroad as a bonus.
There is one very bad point about attracting foriegn talent, especially of non-Chinese blood and that is that there is no loyalty. If we can buy him, then so can anyone, and his home country should have an even easier time. They may even come with the intent of betrayal. Not that all Chinese are loyal, but the risk is much higher in a foreigner. America suffers greatly from this; its scientists are only there for the material goods and frequently come and go as the deals bring them.
