[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] President Moon Jae-in, who is on an official visit to the United States, will conclude his summit schedule in Washington DC on the 22nd (local time) and head to southern Georgia.

On the morning of the 22nd, President Moon will meet Wilton Gregory, the first African American cardinal in the United States and Archbishop of Washington DC. Afterwards, President Moon will move to Georgia to visit the electric vehicle battery factory that SK Innovation is building near the city of Atlanta.

This site visit appears to have been arranged to demonstrate President Moon's commitment to strengthening advanced industry cooperation between Korea and the U.S., including semiconductors and batteries. Following the Korea-U.S. summit, companies such as SK Innovation, Samsung Electronics, SK Hynix, and LG Energy Solution announced a total investment plan of 44 trillion won in the U.S., and this visit is also interpreted as an encouragement to these companies.

President Moon will return to Korea on the night of the 23rd Korea time.
