government also presented a blueprint for the "Korean New Deal." It is said that it will create jobs and prepare for the future by using the digital new deal and the green new deal as axes, but it is evaluated that the specificity is still low.

<Reporter> The

basic idea of ​​the government's Korean version of the New Deal is to improve the industrial structure and create jobs by investing money in the digital and green industries based on the expansion of the employment safety net.

The plan is to invest 31 trillion and 300 trillion won by 2022, and 76 trillion won by 2025, within the current government term.

The target of job creation by 2022 is 550,000.

In 'Digital New Deal', big data, 5G, and artificial intelligence industries are mainly fostered.

Wi-Fi is installed in all elementary, middle, and high schools to build a digital-based education infrastructure.

We decided to reinforce mobile infrastructure by providing mobile devices and wearables to 420,000 people, including the vulnerable and the chronically ill.

The so-called 'Green New Deal' is to promote the transition to green energy technology.

First of all, a remodeling project is underway to upgrade daycare centers, national schools, etc. to energy efficient facilities.

The employment safety net was also strengthened.

From next month, some special workers, such as door-to-door salespeople, will also be covered by industrial accident insurance.

However, many of the 550,000 jobs are short-term, which raises the question of sustainability.

Many point out that the goal or specificity of the Korean version is still low.

The government is also planning to finalize the comprehensive plan next month by supplementing additional tasks.
