전 세계 단 3척뿐"…인터넷 99%를 깔고 고치는 배, 결국 한국이 차지했다

How did Korean submarine cables overcome the technological barriers of Europe, which has dominated the global market for 170 years? Korea is emerging as a new powerhouse in this core underwater industry that underpins approximately 99 percent of global internet data and inter-state power grids. In this video, we take a detailed look at Korea’s painful past, when it could not even install cables within its own waters, through large-scale investments in 2008 and the process of securing long-distance ultra-high voltage cable technology. We also analyze the high entry barriers of the submarine cable industry, which requires the performance of manufacturing, laying, and repair, as well as the strategic value of world-class cable laying vessels. You can also see how Korean companies have built technology and trust in this golden underwater market, which is growing rapidly due to offshore wind power and the expansion of inter-state power grids. We also examine the technological sovereignty and future competitiveness that the Korean submarine cable industry must protect amidst China's rapid pursuit and competition for national security.
