Korea Moves to Build 27 APR1400 Reactors in the U.S. | September 23 2026 | Front Page Daily - 동영상 Dailymotion

Seoul Economic Daily

Korea just took a major step toward building its own nuclear reactors on American soil, free of Westinghouse's veto. A revised U.S.-Korea agreement would allow Korea to build up to 27 APR1400 reactors in the U.S., with Westinghouse negotiating a 5-to-10% equity stake instead of controlling the technology transfer outright. The Industry Ministry briefed the National Assembly on the shift this week, ahead of a final review. Separately, U.S. investor Heinz is putting 100 billion won into Korean rental housing, one of the first cases of a global investor entering at the land-acquisition stage. Together, the stories show Korean industry and global capital both moving deeper into each other's markets.

00:46The revised structure would let Korea build APR1400 reactors on U.S. soil under its own

02:09Heinz's rental housing bet shows global capital is also willing to take a direct stake in Korea's

02:15own property market.

02:16Final terms of the APR1400 licensing agreement once Congress reviews it.

02:23Westinghouse's exact equity stake once negotiations conclude.
