## Resource

South Korea is set to unleash a historic $530 billion budget in 2027, fueled by a booming AI chip industry that’s outpacing tax projections. With a laser focus on AI chips, data centers, and physical AI tech, the government plans to fund these bold moves by reallocating existing spending—not just relying on new revenue. President Lee Jae-myung calls this windfall a golden opportunity to seize global AI leadership, while a new Future Response Fund will channel excess tax dollars into youth, growth engines, regional development, and talent cultivation.
