Chairman of South Korean tech giant Samsung Lee Kun-hee has breathed his last breath on Sunday. The company released an official statement to confirm the sad news.

Under the leadership of Lee, Samsung went through a massive transformation. He made the company one of the leading manufacturers of electronic devices and memory chips.

Media reports claimed that he suffered a heart attack in May 2014, since then he has been hospitalized. Back in the late 1990s, he underwent treatment for lung cancer.

In the statement, the company said, when the chairman breathed his last his family members including his son who is serving as the chief was by his side.

The chairman who took over the control of the company from his company changed the company image from copying designs of other companies to manufacture screens and microchips for the rival companies.
