Semiconductor export boom swells Korea budget, setting up September parliamentary clash
South Korea’s government budget for 2027 is set to rise sharply as a semiconductor export boom lifts tax revenue, raising the stakes for a September parliamentary session over how to allocate funds. The plan boosts spending to 820.9 trillion won and lifts revenue to 880.8 trillion won, led by a jump in national tax receipts. Funding for semiconductor and AI initiatives rises, including a new semiconductor special account, while debates centre on tax credits, infrastructure support and an exception to the 52-hour workweek cap.
