Foreign media: On January 5, 2026, Chinese and South Korean companies signed nine cooperation agreements in Beijing, which is the first visit to China by South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol after taking office. This visit was accompanied by more than 200 South Korean business leaders, including executives from Samsung Electronics, SK Group, and Hyundai Motor.
This cooperation involves companies such as Alibaba International, Lenovo, and South Korean Shinsegae Department Store. China and South Korea plan to strengthen cooperation in areas such as artificial intelligence, consumer goods, and cultural content.
However, the chief secretary of the South Korean presidential office stated that China is unlikely to lift the unofficial ban on South Korean culture soon.
