Episode Description:
The force reshaping semiconductors is now reshaping Korea's heavy industry.
Korean steel exports rose 58% year-on-year, the first gain in fourteen months, driven by AI data-center demand for specialized steel and power equipment. Samsung's Yongin chip fab, backed by roughly 300 trillion won (about 200 billion dollars), will start production in 2029 at up to 1 million wafers a month. Eco-friendly vehicles made up nearly half of first-half new-car registrations, with hybrids up 152.4% and EVs up 113%. For supply-chain analysts, Korea's mills and fabs now signal where AI buildout costs are heading.
