Seoul announced plans to investigate potential human rights abuses involving Korean workers at a Georgia Hyundai facility. Immigration officials detained over 300 South Korean citizens for approximately one week before their release and repatriation. The operation resulted in 475 total arrests, targeting individuals with expired visas or inappropriate work permits. South Korean labor organizations demanded an official apology from the Trump administration following the mass detention. The incident sparked widespread anger throughout South Korea, particularly after Seoul had pledged substantial American investments to avoid threatened tariffs.

President Trump attempted to reassure foreign investors through social media statements about welcoming international expertise. He emphasized the importance of foreign specialists in developing advanced technologies, such as semiconductors and computer systems. The American leader expressed concerns about discouraging future investment while defending enforcement actions. South Korean President Lee Jae Myung warned that such arrests might deter additional business partnerships. The controversy emerged months after Seoul committed to major economic cooperation agreements with Washington.
