US-China Summit Kickoff: Trump landed in Beijing for talks with Xi on Iran, trade, and arms sales to Taiwan, greeted with a rare red-carpet reception by Vice President Han Zheng and hundreds of youth chanting “Welcome” — while Korea hosted last-minute agenda talks between US Treasury chief Bessent and China’s He Lifeng. Markets & Chips: Wall Street pushed toward fresh records as tech stocks rallied despite discouraging US wholesale inflation; in Asia, sentiment stayed mixed on Iran uncertainty and AI-stock jitters. Korea Tech Watch: Apple reportedly is discussing a 2028 iPhone upgrade using advanced 4-side bending OLED with transparent electrode tech, while a Galaxy S24 reportedly exploded in a user’s hand in South Korea, prompting an investigation. Health Tech: ROKIT Healthcare and Seers are expanding AI medical monitoring via Middle East deals, and Hong Kong’s HKU is testing a saliva-based AI cancer risk device. Policy & Society: Seoul is deploying AI “climate sanctuary” systems for heat and flash-flood risk, and a UN rights chief in Seoul invoked non-refoulement for North Korean POWs held in Ukraine.
