Samsung
Samsung’s CEO, Lee Byung-Chul, was thinking big when he was thinking of a name for his company, looking to the stars above for inspiration. Samsung was originally geared towards trading prior to changing its sights for an electronics target two decades later. Byung-Chul eventually settled on Samsung due to its Korean meaning: “Three Stars.” 3 is a lucky number to this nation, and the stellar connotation is taken from his celestial ambitions.
