    “That’s why I believe factories should be built not only in Honam but also in the U.S. If possible, they must be constructed. Trade pressures and various issues must be considered, which is why we are exploring options.” Chairman Chey stated, “We are currently searching for locations to build factories. We must find every possible site worldwide, evaluate which is best, fastest, and largest, prioritize them, and build quickly.”

      Thank you. Semiconductor technology has been due for a big technological innovation for a while now, and not just for economic diversification.

      The current economic situation is indicative of that. If there had already been more competition across the globe creating external pressure, maybe we’d have more breakthroughs and we wouldn’t be seeing such a strong economic and technological bottleneck
