RIP Samsung Heir Lee Kun-hee

The chairman was the son of Samsung founder Lee Byung-chull.

"Lee Kun-hee, the ailing chief of the sprawling Samsung empire, has died in Seoul on Sunday, the company announced. He was 78. The second-generation heir of South Korea’s largest conglomerate had been in a coma following a heart attack in 2014."

"Lee Kun-hee leaves behind a company that’s much more powerful than when he started, but also one trying to overcome the ethical problems that frequently defined his tenure."
