Description

South Korea has a remarkable history. Born from the ashes of imperial domination, partition and a devastating war, back in the 1950s there were real doubts about its survival as an independent state. Yet South Korea endures: today it is a boisterous democracy, a vibrant market economy, a tech powerhouse, and home to the coolest of cultures. In just seventy years, this society has grown from a shrimp into a whale.

What explains this extraordinary transformation? For some, it was individual South Koreans who fought to change their country, and still strive to shape it. For others, it was forward-looking political and business leaders with a vision. Either way, its clear that this is the story of a people who dreamt big, and whose dreams came true.

Shrimp to Whaleis a lively history of South Korea, from its millennia-old roots, through the division of the Peninsula, dictatorship and economic growth, to todays global powerhouse.
