Samsung union announced it will proceed as scheduled with a large-scale strike tomorrow (21st) after company management dismissed the government's mediation proposal, meaning nearly 48,000 Samsung workers will carry out a strike lasting up to 18 days.

Blue House, the presidential residence of South Korea, expressed regret over the breakdown in negotiations between Samsung and labor representatives, urging both sides to consider the negative impact a strike would have on the national economy and to make every effort to reach an agreement before the strike deadline.
