South Korean President Lee Jae-myung may meet Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong this week, according to local sources cited Monday, with talks expected to center on three large-scale national projects tied to semiconductors and artificial intelligence. The report comes only days after Lee met SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won. The same sources said Lee could also hold a meeting this week with Hyundai Motor Group Executive Chair Chung Euisun. The timing has drawn attention as speculation builds over whether the United States is pressing South Korea to expand investment in the U.S. semiconductor sector in line with Seoul’s prior investment pledges. Still, South Korea’s Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Kim Jung-kwan had earlier said that Seoul has not held talks with Washington on the matter. The meetings remain prospective, based on comments from unnamed South Korean sources carried in the report.
