Samsung Electronics

Executives of South Korea's global tech giant Samsung Electronics swept the list of the country's highest-paid CEOs in the first half of 2014, according to the latest corporate business reports, although the CEOs' bonuses were somewhat reduced because of a slowdown in business performance in the second quarter.
Shin Jong-kyun, head of the company's information technology and mobile division, topped the list with 11.34 billion won (US$11.1 million), followed by his colleague Kwon Oh-hyun, leader of the device solutions department, who received 5.37 billion won.
