About

Lee Jae-yong (Korean: 이재용; Hanja: 李在鎔; born 23 June 1968), known professionally in the West as Jay Y. Lee, is a South Korean business magnate, the Vice Chairman and acting Chairman of Samsung. He is the eldest child and only son of Hong Ra-hee and Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of Samsung until his death in 2020, and is his father's successor. He is referred to as the "Crown Prince of Samsung" by the South Korean media and speaks Korean, English, and Japanese. As of June 2020, Lee is estimated to be worth US$6.7 billion, making him the fourth wealthiest person in South Korea. In January 2021, Lee was sidelined from taking part in major Samsung business dealings after he resumed serving a prison sentence for a bribery and embezzlement conviction.
