The successes associated with its progress and production as a country as they relate to the global economy, as well as the problems inherently related to the typical growing pains of a nation fraught with strife, have posed considerable obstacles for South Korea. Indeed, the twentieth century has provided South Korea with a number of improvements to its society and economy as a means by which to afford this so-called newly industrializing country's GNP the opportunity to prosper.
