I have never thought that I would live to see Korea is one of leading biotech countries in the world.
Biotech has been known to be Euro-American enterprise that no other countries dare to challenge it.
It is unfortunate that we have Coronavirus pandemic, but it happens to prove how advanced
Korean biotech is.
Korea did not do "lockdowns" of any city internally and allowed the entry of people from overseas.
The government did not even order to close restraunts.
Korea invented kits to test the virus before it became out of hands like in U.S. and other countries now,
and was able to isolate the infected patients. Korea is confident that they can monitor people from overseas with
their cell phones for 14 days. Whole world is asking Korea "how did you do it?"

I identify with your feelings, Dr. Ohn.
It's been my conviction all along that the majority of the old Korean generation which
you and I belong to have badly underestimated the younger generations in every facet
of Korea just like parents always tend to underestimate their children's potential.
What's happening in biotech in Korea is certainly a good example.
I've never felt this proud as a Korean born physician.

These two stories in the above would and must make every Korean in the world proud.
Our medical bioscientists leading the biotech companies have made South Korea
the most advanced, number one country in the whole wide world in this world war
against coronavirus, once in a century, once in a life time, global pandemic.
These Korean scientists are becoming true heroes for the survival of humanity on Earth
in this global war against the most cunning, threatening virus worse than SARS and MERS.
