Just the fact I don't see anything special about this. China is a nuclear power, and as such it has been able to have a technological lead that was hampered because of its "inferiority," so to speak. If ROK can develop such tech, why not China? Anything about "breakthroughs" is just.... well, something quite behind.

In the meantime, I'm waiting for KSTAR to fully be operational.

I never said it was a bad thing. More of "ah, so another instant of blowing one's horn when its old news." Besides, I don't see much change with the coal industry, given the interests vested in it.

Just a side comment on the rise of "state capitalism". Supposingly, greater state control is needed for economic growth and technological development, according to some people.
