According to reports, a ruling party official who did not wish to be named was quoted as saying that the US is asking South Korea to invest in the construction of memory chip production facilities in the US to ensure a stable supply of chips. During South Korea's Minister of Industry's recent investment negotiations in Washington, the two sides discussed this issue. The US side privately expressed dissatisfaction with South Korea's plan to invest 800 trillion won to build the Hunan semiconductor industry cluster. According to the report, the US side believes that the South Korean government strongly supports local chip investment, but it has a conservative attitude towards semiconductor investment in the US. The South Korean government believes that the semiconductor investment requirements put forward by the US side are separate matters from the 350 billion US dollar investment commitment reached between the two countries last year. South Korea plans to announce its first project in the US investment framework in September.
