SEOUL, December 12 (AJP) - Shinsegae Group Chairman Chung Yong-jin departed for the United States on Friday to attend a Christmas dinner hosted by U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance at the vice president’s residence in Washington D.C.
The event, scheduled for Friday evening, local time, is expected to draw prominent figures from U.S. political and business circles, as well as members of the Rockbridge Network, an American public policy and investment organization founded by Vance.
Chung serves as head of the Rockbridge Network’s Asia division and sits on the board of Rockbridge Network Korea, launched in October to foster policy dialogue and economic cooperation between Korea and the United States.
In a press release, Shinsegae Group said Chairman Chung “is actively leveraging his global connections to seek growth opportunities for the group and contribute to South Korea’s economic development.”
