Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of US President Donald Trump, held a series of closed-door meetings with around 20 business leaders from Korean conglomerates on Wednesday, during a private visit at the invitation of Shinsegae Group Chairman Chung Yong-jin...

...Trump Jr.'s visit is not part of an official US government delegation, and he was not expected to meet with political or government officials, out of respect for White House guidance.​

However, unofficially, this might be more about US-SK relations than the Trump Organization seeking to make hay while the sun is shining:

An industry source, who requested anonymity, said, “Key topics likely included trade challenges such as tariffs, as well as ways to boost bilateral investment and economic cooperation (between the US and Korea).”

The source further speculated, “Given the US interest in Korea’s IT and shipbuilding industries, discussions may have touched on potential areas for negotiation and collaboration.”​

If the senior Trump is facilitating the junior Trump's business dealings, then he is also promoting his own.

As long as the family name isn't "Biden", nobody cares what a presidents son does about business deals using daddy's name and position.

Everytime a new story comes out that shows Republicans and particularly this criminal administration doing the very things that they accused Biden of...

Why is Trump's family all above reproach? We know Bush's brother Neil, certainly had some foreign entanglements.

Now imagine that Neil Bush with his foreign entanglements had been the custodial trustee of his brother's assets during this time and the picture comes into focus.

Ok, I see too that "Trump’s 53% ownership stake in the company, now in a trust controlled by his oldest son, Donald Trump Jr., rose by $415 million on the day." That was the day on Truth Social that Trump said to buy. Trump told investors to 'buy' on social media hours before his tariff pause rose stocks, raising questions about manipulation

They barely try to disguise or hide the corruption anymore. Why even bother when they control the prosecutors (thanks, Bondi!) and are increasingly dismissive of the judges?

It is a bit premature to know the legality or even if Trump personally benefitted. It is very interesting though.
