One of Samsung's CEOs, Jong-hee Han, has died due to a heart attack.

Relevant HN discussion if anyone wants to see a discussion on a larger tech board for insights:

    I sincerely hope he was a good man, and my heart goes out to his survivors, especially his daughter since he died at her wedding.

    I know nothing about him, and probably won’t bother learning more.

    Anyway, what does this have to do with technology? Does the other CEO have a very different plan for the company or something that this CEO was blocking? If not, this doesn’t seem all that important.

      Samsung is one of the largest tech companies in the world. I don’t think that’s debatable.

        A spoon is technology, do you see posts about spoons here?

              Okay, an article from 2021 about a niche kind of spoons. If that is the best example of developments in the spoon industry I fully understand why it gets no attention on e.g. lemmy.

          A spoon is a utensil and not technology in the context of this community. Samsung is all about technology. They’re huge.

      Does the other CEO have a very different plan for the company

      I mean they almost certainly will…

        Why? They had two co-CEOs, and now one of them died. Is it really a given they’d change direction suddenly after the other passed? Surely they’re already a known quantity in the org…
