[Photo] Shipyard Workers Lighting Up and Wrapping Up Final Tasks

"It is darkest before dawn." This phrase from Paulo Coelho's novel 'The Alchemist' aptly describes our Korean shipbuilding industry and those who have endured its long hardships. After years of a severe order drought that pushed the shipbuilding sector to the brink, the industry is now preparing to soar again, having revived even amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Just as the shipbuilding industry has regained its pride in building ships and healing past wounds, our task is to create stepping stones for the domestic industrial field to leap forward once more.
