Samsung Electronics appointed the company’s first female president during its annual executive reshuffle, indicating Chairman Lee Jae-yong’s intention to break the glass ceiling at his company.

The tech giant announced on Monday that Vice President Lee Young-hee was promoted to president to lead the global marketing office of the device eXperience (DX) division, which oversees the mobile device and home appliance businesses. She is credited for Samsung using purple, instead of blue, for its marketing campaign.

She also became Samsung Group’s first female president who is not related to late founder Lee Byung-chul. Hotel Shilla President and CEO Lee Boo-jin, the younger sister of the Samsung Electronics chairman, had been the only female president at Korea’s largest conglomerate.

“She is credited for Samsung using purple, instead of blue, for its marketing campaign.”

Narrarator: “…they wrote with a straight face after searching the archives for something they could consider an accomplishment so her promotion didn’t look like Samsung seeking Woke & Diversity Cred on the orders of its globalist masters.”

Sure… tonight. I want to update it a bit.

I haven’t done any poetry or art for a long time… been making EDM with FL Studio when I need to be creative… which is much harder than I thought to make something that doesn’t sound home made.

I need to write a new poem.

Topics anyone?
