US Tech Selloff Drags Samsung and SK Hynix Lower

A sharp selloff in US tech stocks pressured Korean chipmakers, with Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix both falling. The KOSPI dropped 3.48% intraday below 5,700, and SK Hynix slid more than 7%. The move reflects external market sentiment hitting the memory leader short term and may raise volatility, but it is not a fundamental change, so the medium-term impact is limited.
