From January to September this year, South Korea's semiconductor exports amounted to US $ 70.414 billion, up 56.5% year-on-year. Semiconductor exports accounted for 16.4% of total exports in the same period, ranking first in all export projects. Last year, semiconductor exports accounted for the proportion of total exports Up to 12.6%, also in the export project in the first if this trend continues, the annual semiconductor exports accounted for the proportion of total exports will record a record high.
Analysts believe that South Korea's semiconductor exports in the fourth quarter of this year will continue to show growth, so this year's semiconductor exports accounted for a large proportion of the total export volume is highly likely.It is predicted that semiconductor memory demand will continue to grow, and the average price is also expected Growth, so there are views that the proportion of semiconductor exports accounted for the proportion of total exports is expected to close to 20%.
October 29, 1994, South Korea for the first time to achieve semiconductor exports of 10 billion US dollars in order to commemorate the semiconductor exports exceeded 10 billion US dollars, the Korean people in 2008 will be set on October 29 'Semiconductor Day' .In the last century 60's, The concept of the first introduction of South Korea .After 1974, South Korea was born the first semiconductor company. Samsung in the early 80s of last century into the semiconductor market, since the end of 1983 successfully developed 64K DRAM. After less than 10 years, Samsung beat Toshiba, South Korea's semiconductor exports in 2000 exceeded 20 billion US dollars in 2010 exceeded 50 billion US dollars in 2014 exceeded 60 billion US dollars, this year has now exceeded 70 billion US dollars.
