have lower and more reasonable taxes compared to other countries. You will love our hard-
working people and you will thrive in the favorable business climate that we have here. You will
never go wrong by investing here in Korea.

world?
b. What does doing business in Korea promise?

Sample answer:
Our company is planning to make some investments in Korea. However, this is a very new

business in Korea. What are the likely projects that will surely succeed in that country? I
hope that you can answer these questions, so that we can consider investing in this country.
Thanks!
