June 14, 2026The escalation of conflict in Iran and the subsequent closure of the Strait of Hormuz have triggered a severe economic crisis in South Korea, exposing the energy vulnerabilities of its dominant semiconductor sector. As the country relies on the Middle East for approximately 70 percent of its crude oil, the disruption has caused a massive sell-off in the shares of industry leaders Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. This volatility highlights a critical strategic chokepoint where global AI and memory chip supply chains are directly dependent on the stability of volatile energy transit routes.
