South Korean engineer smuggled out shopping bags full of secret SK hynix docs to give to Huawei
Gets 18 months in prison, $14,300 fine.
A former employee of SK hynix was sentenced to 18 months in prison and fined ₩20 million ($14,300) for stealing critical semiconductor technology before moving to Huawei, reports the Korea Biz Wire.
