Altman's Surprise Korea Visit Ignites AI Memory, KOSPI Up 2.24%

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman made a surprise visit to Korea to meet chip giants including Samsung and SK hynix to discuss AI memory supply cooperation. The market read it as a sign of continued strong AI memory demand, lifting KOSPI by 2.24% and boosting memory stocks such as SK hynix. Short-term sentiment is positive, but concrete cooperation details are not yet in place, so the long-term impact remains to be seen.
