Defense Tech Push: South Korea’s Cabinet approved a bill to build “defense semiconductors” with homegrown tech support, R&D funding, and preferential purchases, aiming to cut reliance on foreign supply chains. US-ROK Security Talks: Seoul and Washington began formal talks to implement last year’s security agreements, with day one focused on Seoul’s nuclear-powered submarine push; next up is uranium enrichment and spent fuel reprocessing. Industrial Safety Shock: Hanwha Aerospace partially suspended production at its Daejeon facility after an explosion killed five and injured two, with authorities investigating ignition sources and flammable materials. Markets & AI Momentum: Seoul’s stock market kept climbing on the AI chip rally, with reports saying South Korea overtook India as the world’s sixth-largest market. North Korea-Dokdo Signal: North Korea’s 2025 map/book reportedly omitted Takeshima/Dokdo from its territory, fueling speculation about a shift in its claim. Local Life: Seoul will host a three-day Han River triathlon festival this weekend, inviting residents and visitors to swim, cycle, and run at set distances.
