According to Samsung Electronics and others, they will meet at around 7:30 p.m. at Kanbu Chicken near Samseong Station in Seoul, where they will spend about an hour communicating over chicken and beer.
It is reported that CEO Huang will discuss cooperation in the artificial intelligence (AI) industry with Chairman Lee and Chairman Chung, including the supply of high-bandwidth memory (HBM), autonomous driving, and robotics.
The meeting location was chosen at the suggestion of CEO Huang, who expressed interest in experiencing Korea's chimaek culture. From early in the evening, crowds have been gathering around the chicken restaurant.
CEO Huang arrived at Terminal 2 of Incheon International Airport at around 3 p.m. on the same day. After the chimaek meeting, he is scheduled to make a surprise appearance on stage at the ongoing GeForce Gamer Festival at COEX.
