I've been boycotting Samsung for years now. People outside Korea often seem surprised when I mention this—after all, Samsung is one of the most recognizable Korean brands globally. So let me explain.

It started after I read Think Samsung (三星(삼성)을 생각한다) by Kim Yong-chul, a former Samsung lawyer turned whistleblower. The book exposed systematic corruption, slush funds, and how the conglomerate wielded its influence to evade accountability. It painted a picture of a company that operated as if it were above the law.

But what pushed me from mere dislike to active boycott was the 2015 merger between Samsung C&T and Cheil Industries. This wasn't just questionable corporate governance—it was engineered to help Lee Jae-yong consolidate control of the Samsung empire. The merger ratio heavily undervalued Samsung C&T, and the National Pension Service, despite its fiduciary duty to Korean citizens, voted in favor of it. Korean pensioners lost billions.

The whole affair later became central to the corruption scandal that brought down President Park Geun-hye. Lee Jae-yong was convicted of bribery. And yet Samsung continues as if nothing happened.

I'm under no illusion that my personal boycott hurts Samsung in any meaningful way. But some things aren't about effectiveness. They're about not being complicit.

해고 발표만 해도 주가가 쑥? ‘유령 감원’과 ‘AI 워싱’의 민낯

피터 캐펠리 와튼스쿨 교수는 AI 열풍 속 과장된 기대에 대해 경고하며, AI 도입 초기 비용과 시간이 많이 소요된다고 지적한다. 그는 리코 사례를 통해 AI 도입으로 생산성이 향상되지만, 비용 절감 효과는 제한적이며 인력 감축으로 이어지지는 않는다고 설명한다. 또한, AI 도입 과정에서 새로운 역할이 창출되고 기존 역할이 재설계되며, 인력 재배치가 이루어지는 등 조직 변화의 필요성을 강조한다. fortunekorea.co.kr/news/articl

그... 전부터 계속 이상한 본인 사진인지 뭔지 실내흡연 올리시고 다른 사람 일상포스트도 마구 알피해가서는 자기 홍보하려고 그랬다고 변명하고 계속 집착적으로 자기가 그림 그려주니까 빨리 참가하라고 독촉하시는 분이 계셔서 블락했거든요... 자기가 일본쪽에 곡 다 만들어줬다고 그런 말 하시고... 혹시 누군지 짐작이 가신다면 대화 안 하시는거 추천드려요.............
