The issue of economic growth associated with social equity is an important trend and basis for creating sustainable development. The experience of Korea from the 70s of the last century until now shows that the secret to creating an "Asian Dragon" is the combination of these two factors. From the successful experiences of Korea, it will help our country effectively carry out the industrialization and modernization process in general and achieve economic growth with social equity in particular.
