Samsung Labor Tension: Samsung’s looming 18-day strike over AI profits is back in focus after Reuters reported the wage fight is really about who gets the AI windfall—memory-chip workers want bigger bonuses than logic-chip staff, while the union argues AI chip teams should be treated equally. Market Mood: Wall Street hit fresh highs as Cisco’s strong results lifted the S&P 500 and pushed the Dow back above 50,000.

Policy Watch: South Korea is preparing tokenized securities rules for July, with blockchain ledgers set to be formally recognized under FSC oversight in 2027. Security & Shipping: With the Strait of Hormuz still tense, South Korea is probing debris from a Hormuz ship attack while the U.S. Navy expands helicopter-based enforcement of an Iran blockade.
