The White House contends these tariffs are "reciprocal," aiming to pressure countries to address what Trump describes as longstanding trade imbalances and barriers. According to the Korea JoongAng Daily, South Korea sought an extension for negotiations and has been pushing for a comprehensive "package" deal that would include trade, investment, purchases, and broader security cooperation. Korean National Security Adviser Wi Sung-lac said these issues were discussed in depth during his meetings with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Washington, where both sides agreed to keep communicating and attempt to reach an agreement before the August 1 deadline.
The new tariffs target **every sector** of South Korean exports, from autos and steel to consumer electronics and, critically, semiconductors and advanced chips. Tech industry observers and outlets like Tom’s Hardware warn that the measure could deal a serious blow to Korea's high-tech manufacturing, given the country’s status as a major supplier of memory chips, cars, and industrial equipment to the U.S.
South Korea is particularly vulnerable in the auto and metals sectors, which already face separate tariff threats. The effective tariff rate on U.S. imports overall is set to rise from around 2.5% in 2024 to more than 17% if no compromise is reached, according to economic analysis cited by CBS News. South Korea’s government maintains it imposes very low tariffs on U.S. goods under the existing free-trade agreement, but Trump has criticized Seoul for what he sees as “entrenched” barriers and for the burden of U.S. military spending on the peninsula.
Meanwhile, the tariffs are adding unrest among U.S. allies in Asia. Politico reports that the letter campaign and abrupt tariff schedule have produced "shock, frustration, and anger" in Asian capitals, with Trump’s administration seeking to leverage these moves for both economic and diplomatic advantage, particularly in countering China’s influence in the region.
