Korean term or phrase: 핵심인재, 핵심인재상

I couldn't find exact translation of these terms. Would it be core talent or core competencies? core competent employee? Please help! Thank you.

Explanation:
While your suggestion 'core' to define the word '핵심' sounds perfectly alright, I thought of a different way.

In Korea, we're trying to redue the use of Chinese character. The word '핵심' however needs Chinese character. Please consult with your nearest government office annd discuss

Key talent

Explanation:
Usually, "핵심인재" in Korean is equivalent to "key talent" in English.

But in the whole sentence you posted. "best people" is frequently used in English context(recruitment situation)and sounds more natural to me.
