Are China\u2019s designs possible? Coinciding with likely decoupling of semiconductor technologies between the US and China, South Korea and Taiwanese firms may be compelled to develop new value chains to serve the decoupling markets. As Korea and Taiwan are top producers of semiconductors supported by a complex supply chain of equipment and material led by the US and its allies, would it be possible and sensible for the leading firms within each nation to divide their semiconductor GVCs in two to serve each market? As these GVCs continue to fragment, who are the losers and winners?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Korea and Taiwan in the US-China Hi-Tech Rivalry: Special Lecture with Dr. Keun Lee\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9hX9A_niVC0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-2583 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/korea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2024\/01\/Keun-Lee-crop-245x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"245\" height=\"300\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\">Keun Lee<\/span><span class=\"OYPEnA text-decoration-none text-strikethrough-none\"> is a Distinguished Professor at the Seoul National University (Econ.).
