On August 5, 2026, a South Korean shareholder group filed a complaint against the executive compensation agreements at Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix, accusing their CEOs Jun Young-hyun, Roh Tae-moon, and Kwak Noh-jung of breaching fiduciary duties. The complaint alleges that operating profits were used to distribute performance bonuses without inclusion in labor negotiations or thorough review, potentially leading to the loss of company assets. The police have initiated an investigation.
