The Bank of Korea says South Korea’s monthly storage chip production capacity will increase by 600,000 units by 2028.

The Bank of Korea stated that, thanks to Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix actively expanding domestic production facilities, South Korea's leading advantage in memory chip capacity is expected to further widen. The central bank expects that new chip plants scheduled to begin production by 2028 will increase South Korea's monthly wafer production capacity by approximately 600,000 units.
