현대제철 1300명이 일하던 공장에 180명만 남았습니다

Only 180 people remain at the Pohang plant, where 1,300 used to work. At the time when 237 employees, earning an average annual salary of 93 million won, left through voluntary retirement, Hyundai Steel was pouring 8.5 trillion won into the United States. If you trace the books, you can see that this is not the failure of a single company, but a structural shift in the entire steel industry.
