[AI Sends SK Hynix Soaring, Nearly $1 Billion Divorce Settlement for Group Chairman Reassessed Today] According to monitoring by Beating, the Seoul High Court in South Korea will reassess today the property division case between SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won and his ex-wife Roh Soh-yeong. The couple is already divorced, and the dispute now centers solely on how their assets will be divided. In 2024, the second trial ruled that Chey Tae-won must pay ₩1.3808 trillion, nearly $1 billion. However, South Korea's Supreme Court overturned the property division ruling last year, citing issues with the calculation basis, and sent the case back for retrial. Today's ruling will determine how much Roh Soh-yeong will receive and how Chey Tae-won's SK shares will be valued. The outcome has not yet been announced. The AI boom has further raised the stakes. SK Hynix's stock price has surged approximately tenfold since early 2025, doubling Chey Tae-won's net worth. If the court rules close to $1 billion again, he may need to borrow funds, sell assets, or pledge shares. [Original Link]
