Appropriate technology could be viewed in light of the framework of public diplomacy in which different countries and peoples interact with the environment and demand of residents in developing countries abroad. Korea has been relatively recently participating in public diplomacy since the effectuation of public diplomacy law in 2016, and tends to focus on cultural areas such as the Korean Wave. In this regard, this study compares the current state of public diplomacy in science and technology with major foreign countries and consider Korea's strengths, potential for development and evaluation management. The framework of public diplomacy may provide an opportunity to seek systemic cooperation in appropriate technology.

In science and technology diplomacy, major countries actively utilize their capabilities in science and technology for public diplomacy, especially for promoting diplomatic relations with politically sensitive regions and countries. Recently, with an increase in the influence of science and technology on national development, interest in science and technology diplomacy has increased. So far, science and technology diplomacy has relied on experts to find research topics that are of common interest to both the countries. However, this method has various problems such as the bias arising from the subjective judgment of experts, the attribution of the halo effect to famous researchers, and the use of different criteria for different experts. This paper presents an objective data-based approach to identify and recommend research topics to support science and technology diplomacy without relying on the expert-based approach. The proposed approach is based on big data analysis that uses deep-learning techniques and bibliometric methods. The Scopus database is used to find proper topics for collaborative research between two countries. This approach has been used to support science and technology diplomacy between Korea and Hungary and has raised expectations of policy makers. This paper finally discusses aspects that should be focused on to improve the system in the future.

Space exploration is an area where international cooperation takes place more actively than any other space activities such as Earth observation, communication and navigation. This is because a country cannot afford a huge budget to have full infrastructure for deep space exploration, such as a heavy launch vehicle, communication and energy infrastructure, and human habitats, and has learned that it is not sustainable. Korea expressed its willingness to join humanity's epic exploration journey by signing the Artemis Accords in 2021 and launching Danuri lunar orbiter in 2022. The beginning of space exploration means that Korea's space activities have expanded beyond the stage of focusing only on technology development to set norms necessary to accompany other countries and cooperate diplomatically to solve exposed problems. This paper analyzed European space policy and space exploration, which are most actively participating in the Artemis Program and exerting diplomatic power in the space field, from the perspective of science and technology diplomacy. The suggestions for Korea's space exploration strategy from the perspective of science and technology diplomacy were drawn by examining the international cooperation strategies in Europe's space activities ranging from space policy, space strategy, and space exploration program to project units.

우리는 드골이 외교 정책을 내세우면서 안으로 프랑스의 과학기술을 적극적으로 장려하여 위대한 프랑스를 이룩했다는 사실을 주시해야 한다. 또한 박정희 대통령이 경제 개발과 동시에 과학기술을 발전시키기 위해 전문학교를 설립하고 과학기술연구소와 국방과학연구소를 설립하고 우수 과학자들을 우대하여 영입해 그들에게 자율권을 주고 과감하게 투자하여 과학 기술을 통하여 선진국으로 도약하겠다는 복안을 통찰하여 계속 추진해야 한다.
