韓国向け半導体材料、きょうにも初の輸出許可…管理厳格化
"Semiconductor material to be exported to S.Korea for the first time after tightening control."
The government tightened the control; it has never said it is the embargo. The Japanese government said that individual applications would "be necessary for exports to South Korea of three materials -- fluorinated polyimide, hydrogen fluoride and resist -- used in the manufacturing process of semiconductors and screens for smartphones and TVs" and the screening of the applications would standardly require about 90 days
The government screened the application and found out that there was no problem. So one of the item-probably resist- will be exported for the first time after the tightened control.
That's how it's been explained in Japan.
As I said before probably no Korean journalists understand what "whitelist" means. Removing S.Korea from 'white-list" won't change anything drastically.
Intentionally or not, they misinterpreted the story and whipped up nationalism....as usual.
