The U.S. rule would impact key technologies such as the Vehicle Connectivity System and Automated Driving System, which are critical for external communications and autonomous driving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rule, if implemented, could disrupt supply chains for South Korean automakers that rely on Chinese components. South Korea\u2019s automotive sector relies heavily on Chinese suppliers for critical technologies. However, the rule allows phased implementation, with restrictions on software starting in 2027 and hardware in 2029, providing companies time to adapt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>WHY IT MATTERS<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The proposed U.S. rule poses significant risks for South Korea\u2019s automotive industry, particularly those companies that depend on Chinese technology critical for external communications, navigation and autonomous driving features.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the phased implementation gives automakers time to diversify their supply chains, failure to do so could jeopardize South Korean automakers\u2019 ability to compete in the U.S. market. However, the Chinese foreign ministry has <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fmprc.gov.cn\/eng\/xw\/fyrbt\/lxjzh\/202409\/t20240923_11495195.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">criticized<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the proposed U.S. rule, accusing Washington of \u201coverstretching the concept of national security\u201d and pledging to defend its firms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">South Korean companies will need to accelerate their efforts to secure alternative suppliers. However, this will be challenging, given South Korea and China held high-level meetings last month to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/koreapro.org\/2024\/08\/rok-shandong-meeting-signals-seouls-intent-to-improve-ties-with-china\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">enhance cooperation on supply chains<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Moreover, the transition will be neither easy nor inexpensive. The cost of shifting supply chains and finding secure alternatives will likely be costly, given China\u2019s dominance in the sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-tags\"><a href=\"https:\/\/koreapro.org\/tag\/business-economy\/\"><span class=\"tag\">Business &amp; Economy<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/koreapro.org\/tag\/inter-korean-foreign-relations\/\"><span class=\"tag\">Inter-Korean &amp; Foreign Relations<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/koreapro.org\/tag\/technology-cyber\/\"><span class=\"tag\">Technology &amp; Cyber<\/span><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The South Korean government held a public-private response meeting on Tuesday to address a proposed U.S. rule that would ban the sale or import of connected vehicles \u2014 cars equipped with internet connectivity and external communication systems \u2014 containing certain hardware and software linked to China and Russia.
