Representatives from 144 South Korean firms and business entities will accompany President Park Geun-hye on her upcoming trip to Mexico, the government said Monday.

The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy announced the list, which includes the heads of Samsung Electronics Co. and Korean Air Lines Co.

It also contains Park Yong-maan, chairman of the Korea Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and Huh Chang-soo, leader of the Federation of Korean Industries.
