Officials in South Korea said on Wednesday that a court decision in the Czech Republic about building two nuclear reactors was not a big problem. They said they were sure the project would happen later.

A group from South Korea thought they would finish a deal this week with a company from the Czech Republic that sells electricity. But a court in the Czech Republic stopped the company from signing because a French company that did not win the deal complained.

South Korea's Industry Minister Ahn Dukgeun told reporters that the court's decision means the final contract will be signed later. He said other steps will still happen on time if the deal is completed. He also said the Czech government did not expect the court to stop the plan, and that CEZ wants to ask the court to change its mind.

We don't know when the Czech court will make a decision about that problem.

Ahn said, "The Czech government did not think this was a big problem and asked us to come to the signing meeting." He also said, "It seems the Czech government's idea was different from what the court decided."

The Czech Prime Minister, Petr Fiala, said on Wednesday that his government accepts what the court decided. He also said: "I think the judges and the court know how important this decision is and how it will affect the safety of the Czech Republic and our country's interests."

Lee Ju-Ho, who is in charge of South Korea for now, said that South Korea will talk a lot with the Czech Republic to finish the agreement fast.

In July, a company called CEZ chose another company, KHNP, to build two big nuclear power plants at a place called Dukovany. They chose KHNP and not a company called EDF. EDF was not happy about this choice. Last week, EDF went to court because they did not agree with the decision.

Before he lost his job last month, the former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol wanted to sell more nuclear power to other countries. He said the government before him did not help this business because they wanted to use less nuclear power in South Korea. His government planned to sell 10 nuclear power stations by 2030.
