Korea Zinc Accused of Using Funds to Back Entertainment Firms Linked to Director Choi
Korea Zinc’s largest shareholder consortium alleges that corporate funds were channeled through OneAsia—a newly established firm where Korea Zinc was the sole LP in most funds—into four unlisted entertainment and content companies unrelated to its core business. The consortium cites about USD 415m committed by Korea Zinc and follow-on investments of over USD 50m that matched firms where director Yun Birm Choi and his family had personally invested, and it seeks an independent audit committee member at the Sept. 9 shareholder meeting.
