South Korea has its own approach. In 2015, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs (MAFRA) launched a Halal Industry Development Policy. The government worked with the Korean Muslim Federation (KMF), which cooperates with MUI Indonesia and JAKIM Malaysia for halal certification.

Several large companies such as CJ CheilJedang, Pulmuone, and Nongshim have received halal certification and successfully exported their products to Muslim countries.

You enter into your salah and the conversation with the King of kings begins. Now, the Qur'an is a monologue. Allah speaks directly to us. And what we learn from that process of the Qur'an being a monologue, it's two things.
Imam Al-Ghazali Rahimahullah said that, "The division of how the ranks of the believers are in regards to their conversation with Allah is that there are those who can anticipate and connect with the Qur'an as revealed to the Prophet SallAllahu 'Alaihi Wasallam. And then there are those who interact with the Qur'an as if it was revealed to them. And then the third, which is the highest, are those that put themselves in the position as if Allah is speaking to them directly."
Meaning as if they're feeling it, they're sensing that conversation with Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. But the Qur'an is a monologue. Dua' is a dialogue, right? Dua' is two ways. Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala speaks to us and we speak to Him.

They all understand the Qur’an in the same way
Some believers can feel as if Allah speaks directly to them
The Qur’an is only for scholars to interpret
The Qur’an is meant to be memorized but not felt
What is the highest rank of believers according to Imam Al-Ghazali?
Those who memorize the Qur’an
