President Lee Jae Myung is expected to meet with Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong in the coming week, according to sources. This potential discussion may focus on South Korea's three mega projects, which are aimed at attracting significant investment in semiconductors and artificial intelligence (AI), sources revealed on Monday.
The meeting with Samsung's top executive follows a recent encounter between President Lee and SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won. Furthermore, Lee is anticipated to have a meeting with Hyundai Motor Group Executive Chair Euisun Chung this week, sources also suggested.
The talks are taking place amidst speculation that the United States is seeking South Korean investment in its semiconductor industry as part of an investment commitment from Seoul. However, Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan had previously stated that no such talks had taken place with Washington.
