Nvidia CEO mounts charm push in South Korea with TV talk show, baseball appearances By Reuters

Nvidia’s chief executive officer continues a high-profile charm offensive in South Korea, marking a second visit in seven months that blends business diplomacy with public appearances. The move underscores South Korea’s pivotal role in Nvidia’s AI ambitions, where Samsung and SK Hynix supply about 70% of the memory Nvidia uses, and the country has become a testing ground for physical AI across robotics and manufacturing. Huang will again engage with top executives and join You Quiz on the Block, wearing a Doosan Bears jersey to throw the first pitch at a game versus the Kiwoom Heroes, with Doosan Group’s leadership participating as ceremonial batter. The effort follows a previous October gathering with Samsung and Hyundai chiefs that drew intense media attention.
