Democratic Party Considers Exempting Semiconductor R&D from the "52-Hour Work Week"... Why the Change of Heart?

Democratic Party Considers Exempting Semiconductor R&D from the "52-Hour Work Week"... Why the Change of Heart?
Point (Facts): Lifting the "52-hour" limit?
Line (Context): Business community "welcomes" it, Labor community "condemns" it
Plane (Perspectives): Why oppose it during the Yoon administration, only to support it now?
The "Special Act on Ultra-Wide Area Zones (Special Act on the Designation and Operation of Ultra-Wide Area Strategic Industrial Zones for Local-Led Growth)" proposed by the Democratic Party of Korea is causing controversy. The bill includes provisions to lift various regulations for the three major mega-project industrial zones. It is becoming problematic because it includes a clause that would even lift the "maximum 52-hour per week" labor regulation. While the Democratic Party opposed the "Semiconductor Special Act" pushed by the People Power Party during the Yoon Suk-yeol administration, they have now introduced a virtually identical bill after coming to power.
