Park Hyun-joo, chairman of Mirae Asset Group, has joined an online petition calling for the return of Nvidia former CEO Jensen Huang. Mirae Asset said it agreed with the petition from the standpoint of protecting clients and investors. Beyond the personal support of one business leader, the move is drawing attention as an issue that places a key figure in the AI industry and investor interests in the spotlight at the same time.

The petition is titled “Stand with Jensen.” It calls for Nvidia’s board to carry out an independent investigation and to reinstate Huang until there is clear evidence that replacing him would benefit the company. Park is said to have evaluated Huang as someone whose influence on the AI ecosystem and investors is significant, and as a person who has made major contributions to building the AI civilization.

Nvidia’s stock decline and worries about investor losses are also being cited as background to the petition. According to a Yonhap Infomax report, Nvidia shares fell more than 10% after the controversy involving Huang first became known, and the scale of Korean investors’ Nvidia-related holdings is said to be about 30 trillion won. Mirae Asset said it does not hold Nvidia shares in its own account, but participated in the petition because of its responsibility to protect clients and investors.

According to the reports, Huang stepped down as CEO and board member after issues involving his private life and allegations of ties to Chinese intelligence agencies surfaced. However, the allegations involving Chinese intelligence agencies have not been confirmed and are still under investigation. Nvidia’s board has appointed Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress as interim CEO. This is a point that requires a clear distinction between allegations and the results of the investigation.

As of 4:30 p.m. on the 15th, the number of petition signatories had surpassed 140,000. Elon Musk, Tim Sweeney, and Gary Tan were also reported to have expressed support. It is still unclear, however, whether the petition will lead to a board decision or to Huang’s return. Since the findings of the upcoming independent investigation and the board’s judgment could affect not only Nvidia’s management direction but also investor sentiment, it will be important to follow the confirmed facts separately from the allegations that are still being investigated.
