00:05Korea.
00:06This is one of the world's largest semiconductor complexes in Pyeongtaek, about 50 kilometers south of Seoul.
00:12Employees here in Samsung's lucrative memory division stand to get bonuses averaging around $400,000.
00:18They make the high-end chips that go into everything from smartphones and electric vehicles to the AI data centers

00:31But not everyone is happy.
00:33Other Samsung workers making smartphones and home appliances are looking at payouts closer to 1% of their CheapColix bonuses.
