South Korea plans an 800 trillion won ($540bn) semiconductor complex in the rural southwest by 2030, championed by President Lee Jae Myung. The Honam complex would need 70-80% of the region's electricity and 650,000 tonnes of water daily, neither of which exists yet. Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and Amkor Technology Korea are involved.
