[South Korean Court Orders SK Hynix Chairman Chey Tae-won to Pay Approximately $643 Million in Divorce Settlement]
Odaily Planet Daily reports that Chey Tae-won, the billionaire chairman of SK Hynix, has seen his personal wealth surge significantly due to the artificial intelligence boom. Recently, a South Korean court issued a new ruling ordering him to pay his ex-wife 944 billion Korean won (approximately $643 million) as part of their divorce settlement, bringing this prolonged and high-profile divorce case close to an end. If the ruling is finalized, it will mark the largest divorce settlement in South Korean history. According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Chey Tae-won currently has a net worth of approximately $5.6 billion, more than doubling over the past year. The court has yet to clarify whether the payment will be made in cash or stock.
