Ask what Korea is talking about.

South Korea's top 10 exporters accounted for over 60% of total outbound shipments in the third quarter, a record high since statistics began, driven by strong semiconductor demand, Yonhap and the Korea Times report. Large firms' export value more than doubled from a year earlier, while mid-sized and small companies saw growth of only around 10%, widening the gap between big and small businesses, according to the Kyunghyang Shinmun. The Korea Times notes exports surged over 70% in the quarter, but growth was concentrated among a few large corporations. Korean media frame the figures as an export boom masking structural inequality, with the Hankyoreh calling the 60% share a record.
