SK Hynix –22.85%, Samsung Electronics –17.91%… Share Prices Slid in Just Two Days (2026.07.29.)

Since early December 2025 the Pension Future Forum has,

regarding political intervention

in the management of the National Pension,

and continuing to this day,

as almost (!) the only voice in the Republic of Korea,

warned repeatedly

and without letup!

It did so by issuing statements

and by holding seminars!

Despite

these repeated warnings,

intoxicated by the semiconductor super-cycle boom,

our society (the press included)

has left the question of how fearsome (!)

a result the stock market can bring about,

and how great the social after-effects

it can leave behind,

in a state of virtual indifference —

there is no other way to see it!

Instead, as in the first half of 2026,

so long as the National Pension Fund is managed well,

then without structural reform

even until 2100

the scheme could remain sustainable:

that utterly pitiful-looking

position is all

it has shown.

Even though the KOSPI and the KOSDAQ

on two consecutive days

brought about a stock market crash severe enough

to trigger circuit breakers,

not one of the officials responsible

has stepped forward

so much as to make a show

of apologizing to the public!

Instead, all they are doing

is making the public — bruised black and blue

by the crash in share prices —

angrier still.

On the internet edition of the Hankyoreh,

one of the

representative left-leaning outlets,

readers’ comments have been posted; they are

attached here.

It is to leave a record

that public sentiment stands thus.

If those responsible feel

even a shred of responsibility for this episode,

they should hasten

to show themselves apologizing sincerely

before the public,

and, further,

the policy officials concerned

should be dismissed without delay!
