Seoul: No final details on US 'targeted' chip tariff after Lutnick remarks

South Korea's presidential office stated that no details are finalized regarding a potential US 'targeted' tariff on semiconductors, following Commerce Secretary Lutnick's remarks. The uncertainty centers on the scope and timing of any new US trade action against chip imports. This matters because South Korea is a major semiconductor exporter, and any tariff would disrupt global chip supply chains and tech-sector pricing.
