Samsung loses profits and apologizes for the weak competitiveness of its technology

Technology giant Samsung apologized for the company's difficult situation after it said it expects operating profits of $6.78 billion in the fourth quarter, $900 million less than analysts' expectations. The company's vice president, Jeon Young-hyun, admitted that the results raise concerns about the company's technological competitiveness and future.
