According to Yonhap News on June 4, an NVIDIA representative confirmed that Huang will enter the country through Gimpo Airport.
Huang is expected to briefly share his thoughts upon arrival at the airport. This visit marks his first trip to South Korea in about seven months, following his last visit in late October of the previous year.
After leaving the airport, Huang will head to a popular restaurant in Seoul for a dinner meeting with key executives from major domestic companies, where they will enjoy samgyeopsal (grilled pork belly) and soju.
While the restaurant in Seongsu-dong was initially considered, there is a possibility that the location may change to a restaurant in Hongdae or Euljiro due to safety concerns and proximity to the airport.
Attendees are expected to include Chey Tae-won, chairman of SK Group; Chung Eui-sun, chairman of Hyundai Motor Group; Koo Kwang-mo, chairman of LG Group; and Lee Hae-jin, chairman of Naver.
Previously, in the last year, Jensen Huang held a notable "chicken and beer" meeting with Lee Jae-yong, chairman of Samsung, and Chung Eui-sun in Gangnam, which attracted significant attention. Following that meeting, Kkanbu Chicken franchises experienced a surge in visitors.
Huang's visit comes amid expanding discussions on collaboration with domestic companies in the fields of AI semiconductors, physical AI, robotics, and cloud infrastructure.
During his stay, he is expected to meet with major business leaders as well as startups to discuss potential partnerships in semiconductors, AI, and robotics.
