Officials Head to Washington for Tariff Talks

Supply Chain Report – 10/15/2025
Presidential policy chief Kim Yong-beom and Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan are set to travel to Washington, D.C. this week for continued tariff negotiations and discussions on a US$350 billion investment package, officials announced Wednesday. The visit represents another round of high-level trade talks aimed at advancing the economic framework previously agreed upon between Seoul and Washington.

According to the presidential office, Kim Yong-beom, who serves as the chief of staff for policy, will depart on Thursday and is scheduled to meet with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. Although specific details of the meeting remain undisclosed, the discussions are expected to focus on fine-tuning the scope of U.S. tariff adjustments and confirming the implementation process for the investment plan.

Separately, Industry Minister Kim Jung-kwan will also head to Washington on Thursday to continue related negotiations. Both officials are expected to underline the importance of ensuring a stable trade environment and strengthening economic cooperation between the two nations.

The latest trip comes amid limited progress in the months following the July 2025 framework deal, which outlined a plan to reduce certain U.S. tariffs on goods in exchange for a $350 billion investment package targeting key industries such as advanced manufacturing, green energy, and technology innovation.

However, concerns have been raised in Seoul about the potential financial risks linked to the scale of the investment. In response, Seoul has requested that Washington consider establishing a currency swap mechanism to prevent possible market instability and safeguard both economies.

Earlier this week, the presidential office confirmed that the U.S. had responded to parts of Seoul’s revised trade proposals. This development followed remarks from Foreign Minister Cho Hyun, who stated during a parliamentary audit that the government is currently reviewing an alternative financing proposal presented by Washington.

Experts note that these upcoming discussions in Washington will be pivotal in determining the long-term direction of the bilateral trade partnership. While both sides have expressed optimism, unresolved issues surrounding tariff implementation and financial safeguards may extend the negotiation timeline.
