The Samsung Group was founded in 1936 by his father, Lee Bae -ung-chul. The Lee Kun-hee family, the third child of the parents, joined the business in 1986. After the death of his father in 1986, he became the chairman of Samsung.

At that time, Samsung used to produce cheap and low quality products, but this picture was completely changed. Renew the whole company.

He told the workers in 1993, “Let’s change everything except the wife and children.” At that time, the entire stock of Samsung’s mobile phones was burnt. Lee did not speak much in the media, so he was known as a recluse. South Korea was able to bring economic prosperity after the Second World War with the help of Samsung.
