He also recalled the <strong>concert of K-pop stars<\/strong> held last July at the Civitas Metropolitano stadium, which &#8220;provided an unforgettable experience for the 40,000 fans who attended&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Bahk Sahnghoon also commented on the affection of Koreans for Spain with the growth of Koreans learning Spanish &#8220;not only in high schools and universities, but also in private institutions, and <strong>many get up early to watch live La Liga football matches on Korean television&#8221;. <\/strong>He also recalled the flamenco performances produced by the Teatro Real that took place in the 4 main Korean cities, &#8220;providing a good opportunity for many Koreans to enjoy the charms of Spanish culture&#8221;. <strong>&#8220;The Instituto Cervantes will officially open its doors in Seoul early next year, <\/strong>and the Turespa\u00f1a Office in Seoul will start its activities. This mutual interest and affection are undoubtedly the driving forces of the rapprochement between the peoples of both countries.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To conclude, the Korean ambassador referred to the &#8220;great effort&#8221; his country is making &#8220;to host the <strong>2030 World Expo in Busan,<\/strong> the second largest city in the country. By organising this expo, Korea hopes to put into practice its founding ideology of &#8216;benefiting humanity comprehensively&#8217;, guiding it towards a better future&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Secretary General for Innovation, under the <strong>Ministry of Science and Innovation, Teresa Riesgo,<\/strong> then took the floor and said: <strong>&#8220;We have more ties with Korea than we could ever imagine, <\/strong>both in the humanistic and in the technological and commercial spheres, which are certainly not at odds with each other. For our Ministry, Korea is obviously an example to follow, a world champion in science, innovation and technological development. Korea is an example that always comes up when we try to look for success stories or what we call &#8216;best practices&#8217; in the field of innovation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For more than 25 years,&#8221; said Teresa Riesgo, &#8220;the <strong>Centre for Technological Development and Innovation (CDTI) <\/strong>has had a delegate in Seoul who helps innovative Spanish companies to establish collaborations in the technological field with Korean partners.&#8221; As a result of this collaboration, he commented, has been the launch, for the first time, of a <strong>call for<\/strong> <strong>grants &#8220;for large-scale technological research projects and impact, <\/strong>specifically in the areas of electric and connected vehicles, and advanced manufacturing&#8221;, which will be launched in 2024 &#8220;with renewable energy, hydrogen technologies and batteries as protagonists, given the interest shown by the two countries&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Small-medium scale calls for proposals are being published under the <strong>Eureka<\/strong> initiative, which has produced such good results, as well as bilateral programmes in energy and information and communication technologies. As a result of this collaboration, he said, &#8220;the history of research and development collaboration between Spain and South Korea has resulted in <strong>113 joint projects approved to date&#8221;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The reception was attended by the ambassadors of <strong>Brazil, the Philippines, Tunisia, the Arab League, Qatar, Japan, Vietnam, Nicaragua, Argentina, Iran <\/strong>and<strong> India,<\/strong> among others.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_319474\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-319474\" style=\"width: 750px\"
