Ask what Korea is talking about.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has admitted to an affair with Alice Huang, a Chinese businesswoman suspected of working as a spy for the Chinese government, prompting the company's board to open an independent probe into whether he was the target of a foreign intelligence effort, Korea Times and KBS World report. The New York Times reported on Oct. 29 that U.S. intelligence had assessed a Chinese executive at a Singapore-based data center company who had close contact with Huang as a Chinese intelligence asset, Business Korea says. Nvidia shares declined on Monday as the investigation put his future at the AI chipmaker under scrutiny, Korea Times reports. U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday that Huang was "suffering greatly" and didn't know the woman was an alleged spy, Korea Times reports. Korean industry officials are concerned the controversy could affect Nvidia's partnerships in Korea, Korea Times reports, while Business Korea notes the global automaker industry is also watching closely. Korean media have resurfaced Huang's affectionate remarks about his wife on a tvN show five months ago, Chosun Ilbo reports.
