South Korea is more than willing to subsidize the shit out of heavy industry to establish an industrial basis. They recognized that they could either compete toe-to-toe with Japan or be a vassal state of Japan and they went as fascist as they needed to. It worked - they have an industrial base to rival Japan's now and a much younger workforce. They also want to be the ones to sell to China when China gets its shit together. Everybody I know who plays the ponies has made some coin on Tesla. It's always about timing. Thing about Tesla is you aren't betting on Tesla's actual performance, you're betting on the market reaction to Tesla. Wanna see the /b/ of investing?
