The Korean government establishes a S&T master plan to set the direction of national S&T policy every five years. It also suggests '120 Key Technologies' that need intensive investment and cultivation to create economic and social value at the national level. Technologies in the HCI field are also included as key technologies for improving quality of life and creating new industries. This paper analyzes the characteristics of HCI technologies in the national strategy, technology competitiveness, technology life cycle, etc., and also suggests policies that the government should implement first. The role of the government was classified into four categories considering the market and private capacity of the technology sector. Based on the classification, I introduced customized policy measures such as intensive investment, improvement of regulations, training of manpower. Different strategic directions have been derived depending on the characteristics of the technologies in HCI field. This study can be used as a basis for establishing R&D policy in HCI technology field in the future. It will also help to identify trends and levels of HCI research in Korea.
