Two months after Japan took action to restrict key IT exports to South Korea,... it appears there has been limited impact on Korean businesses.
Samsung Electronics, for one, released its first-ever foldable phone in South Korea on Friday,... showing that the mobile giant has not had trouble procuring semiconductor materials for production.
LG Display, meanwhile, has confirmed that it does not need flourinated polyimides from Japan for its foldable phones.
Following Japan's export control measures on photoresist, etching gas and fluorinated polyimides,... South Korea has been aiming to procure supplies from other markets like Taiwan and China as well as boosting local production.
