Summary

CEO Lee Kwon-hee discusses the US market surge led by Micron and the structural growth re-rating for memory, arguing SK Hynix could follow Micron to a 10x P/E and gain 80%. He also presents a list of Korean stock ideas: Doosan Corp as deeply undervalued on its BG business, SK Inc. as a cheap holding company with full-stack AI exposure, NCsoft as a recovery play on new game momentum, an AVOID call on Nepes Ark after its rally, and HPSP as a momentum pick in semiconductor equipment.

  • US market rallies on peace hopes; Micron +11% on target upgrades fueled by structural growth narrative; Philadelphia Semiconductor Index +5.4%.
  • SK Hynix seen as the biggest beneficiary, expected to re-rate to 10x forward P/E, implying ~80% upside, mirroring Micron's de-cyclicalization.
  • CPU importance rising in the AI agent era drives memory demand; AMD, ARM, Qualcomm, Intel all rallied, supporting the memory bull case.
  • Doosan Corp. (000150.KS) undervalued: BG business (CCL) accounts for half of NAV but trades at a steep discount to global peers; target 200k-220k won.
  • SK Inc. (034730.KS) trades at 5.4x P/E with NAV upside from SK Hynix, SK Square, and a turnaround at SK Innovation; target 880k won.
  • NCsoft (036570.KS) recovery: new game momentum and a rising share of 20s-30s users are positive; KB target 440k won.
  • Nepes Ark AVOID: rally pushed the multiple to 29x, now expensive; stock is too volatile and difficult to trade.
  • HPSP (403870.KQ) strong on institutional buying and personal position; up 18-19% in a session, positive momentum.
Ideas
Lee Kwon-hee CEO, Economist 5:27
SK Hynix re-rates to 10x, 80% upside
Micron's target price upgrades are based on a structural growth logic that assigns a 10x forward P/E multiple to memory, implying the industry is no longer purely cyclical. SK Hynix should undergo a similar re-rating, potentially gaining around 80%. The driving force is rising CPU demand from AI agents, which increases attached memory content and supports sustained earnings, making SK Hynix still attractively valued.

HPSP strong momentum, institutional buying
HPSP is seeing strong institutional buying on KOSDAQ and rallied 18-19% in one session. The speaker personally bought the stock for his daughter's account at the 30,000 won level and expresses regret for not adding more, signaling continued bullishness. The company benefits from the semiconductor equipment upcycle and is gaining strong momentum.

Nepes Ark expensive after 29x re-rating
Nepes Ark, a semiconductor packaging company, rallied hard on the narrative that it was cheap relative to Doosan Tesna's 48x multiple. However, after reaching 29x, it has become expensive and the speaker explicitly says not to buy now. The stock is inherently cyclical and volatile, making it hard to trade, and there is little upside remaining at current levels.

Doosan BG business deeply undervalued
The BG business (CCL) inside Doosan accounts for about half of its net asset value, but the market values it at only 38% of NAV. Global CCL peers trade at 28.6x EV, whereas Doosan's BG is deeply discounted. Analysts see fair value at 200,000–220,000 won, about 15%+ upside from the current 170,000 won. Additional value from Doosan Enerbility's nuclear backlog and Doosan Tesna reinforces the cheap sum-of-parts case.

SK Inc. cheap at 5.4x P/E
SK Inc., the holding company, trades at only 5.4x forward P/E, similar to Samsung and SK Hynix, yet it controls a portfolio of strong subsidiaries including SK Hynix, SK Square, SK Innovation, and SK Ecoplant. SK Innovation is turning around to full-year profit, and the NAV discount should narrow. The target price of 880,000 won is based on a sum-of-parts re-rating, and the group's full-stack AI presence (memory, data center, energy) adds strategic value.
Lee Kwon-hee CEO, Economist 19:20
NCsoft turnaround on new game momentum
NCsoft is recovering with strong new game momentum, led by the Lineage franchise, and the share of monthly active revenue from new titles is increasing. Critically, the proportion of users in their 20s and 30s is rising, a positive demographic shift for long-term monetization. Earnings are expected to be solid, and KB Securities has a target of 440,000 won. The stock is seen as a slow but steady fundamentals-driven play rather than a speculative pop.
