Facing the impact of artificial intelligence on traditional careers, a growing number of teenagers in South Korea are choosing to forgo university and instead enroll in semiconductor vocational colleges. Before reaching adulthood, these students embark on a career path that can lead to six-figure annual salaries. Instead of preparing for university entrance exams in their final years of high school, they study subjects like calculus and chemistry, and delve into skills such as circuit design, cleanroom protocols, and pollution control, laying a technical foundation for entering the country's multi-billion-dollar chip industry.
