Abstract
The Republic of Korea is striving to become one of the leading players in the global biotechnology market by announcing the industry as strategic, constantly increasing and attracting investments. However, the economic confrontation between the United States and China puts the country in a dependent position, forcing it to invest in economically unprofitable American projects and abandon a profitable partnership with China. The close cooperation between the United States and the Republic of Korea in the field of biotechnology allows America to control the potential growth of the Republic of Korea, preventing it from becoming a competitor in the future.
