  Wikipedia: South Korean conglomerates
Jaebeol (chaebol, 재벌 財閥 in Korean), meaning conglomerates, have been a major force in the South Korean economy from the end of the Korean War through to today.
Two jaebeol (Hyundai and SK Group) have been implicated in separate scandals involving Presidents Kim Dae-jung and Roh Moo-hyun.
Some of the jaebeols are one large corporation, while others have broken up into loosely connected groups of companies sharing a common name.

 [Editorial] End the Consuming Jaebeol Policy Debate : English Editorials : Internet Hankyoreh
There is a new round of debate about jaebeol policy, including the issue of the cap on intra-conglomerate investment.
Limits on cross-investment between subsidiaries of the same conglomerate are something unavoidable in improving the ownership structures of jaebeols.
It is also unethical for a jaebeol to take a financial institution of its ownership and use customers' money to expand control of subsidiaries.

 Chaebol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 South Korea
In recent years there has been a sincere effort to slay the red-tape dragon, but the bureaucrats are being wrenched from their desks kicking and screaming.
A key feature of Korea's economy are the jaebeol, huge family-run conglomerates that owe their survival to government-subsidised bank loans.
The tight-knit relationship between the jaebeol and government officials has led to more than a few indictments for corruption, and has made the phrase 'Korea, Inc' more of a truism than the more commonly known 'Japan, Inc'.

 [Editorial] Courts Go Just As Easy on a Jaebeol : English editorials : Opinion : News : Home
Nevertheless, the court rationalized sentencing them to suspended prison terms because of "consideration of circumstances." The prosecution and courts that are so fierce and strict as ice needles in the fall towards powerless common people are warm and generous like a warm breeze in spring towards the conglomerates.
Allegations that the prosecution and the courts telepathically scripted a course of action to protect the family behind the Doosan conglomerate are inevitable.
It loses its authority if common citizens and jaebeol are judged according to different standards, and there can be none of the "legal stability" that the courts like to talk about.

If they lack management skills they should do like is done in advanced countries, and be left to manage the family shares while not participating in day-to-day company affairs, as doing so would be best for them and best for the national economy.
Such is the case, and yet hereditary management continues recklessly at jaebeol groups.

 Class composition in South Korea since the neoliberal economic crisis
The second important change was the dissolution of the Jaebeol (large conglomerate cooperations characteristic of the South Korean economy).
The three tasks to supplement these principles were : 1) the interception of banking control over industrial capital ; 2) the restraint placed upon circulation investment and the injustice of inside trading ; 3) prevention of irregular inheritance.
These acts were propelled by wide support from people who had been exploited by the Jaebeol and those who had been oppressed by previous authoritarian governments.

Meanwhile, in Korea, the government along with a few of the old-line jaebeol have made substantial investments in e-commerce, resulting in jaebeol domination of the market.

Inheriting management rights is almost impossible under such circumstances, leaving the companies vulnerable to hostile takeovers.
That is why many jaebeol are tempted to find illegal ways to transfer wealth.
If conglomerates are blocked from transferring their wealth to their founders' descendants, they may lose the motivation to expand their businesses with an eye on the long term; that could lead eventually to a sluggish economy.
