President Lee Jae-myung Holds Closed-Door Meeting with Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Chung Euisun

President Lee Jae-myung reportedly held a closed-door meeting with Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Chung Euisun on the 2nd.

Observers speculate that the primary agenda item discussed was Hyundai Motor Group's previously promised investment in the Saemangeum area.

Previously, Hyundai Motor Group announced a project to invest 9 trillion won in stages by 2029 to establish an innovation growth hub encompassing artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and energy in the Saemangeum region.

In particular, they are also believed to have exchanged views on how such cutting-edge industrial investments can create synergy with the government's "three major mega projects."

Since last month, President Lee has been broadening his contact with the business community, having held separate meetings with Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-yong and SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won.

However, the presidential office has only stated regarding the meetings with business leaders, including Chairman Chung, that "it is difficult to confirm the president's closed-door schedule."
