※ 'The Journalist (THE JOURNALIST)', where SBS reporters tell stories directly to viewers that they could not complete in the news! This time, I would like to share the expected wave of the Japanese government's 'whitelist' exclusion measures. Reporter Kim Do-kyun of the IT team and Choi Jae-young of the issue reporting team analyzed in detail.
The Japanese government excluded South Korea from the white list today, which is a list of preferential export screening countries. In just one month of semiconductor export restrictions, we have implemented additional economic retaliation. As a result, the number of strategic export-related strategic materials has increased to 1,100, and several core industries such as machine tools, fine chemicals, and automobiles, which are highly dependent on imports from Japan, are expected to be affected by semiconductors.
As the 'economic war' spread over Korea and Japan, Korean companies face an unprecedented crisis. However, the voice of making this happen as an opportunity for telephone abuse is growing. It is to promote localization of high-tech materials and market diversification.
The boycott of our people is likely to grow stronger. In fact, Korean tourists visiting Japan's small and medium-sized cities have noticeably decreased since Japan's semiconductor export regulations. Analysts say the Japanese government will feel more pressure if the damage from small and medium-sized cities becomes visible.

Therefore, it is hard to judge that only Korea will suffer damage. The prolonged situation is expected to cause considerable damage to the Japanese economy, but I wonder if the Japanese government is ready to deal with it.
