    Yet this company is a global company based in S Korea.
    Is it being suggested that it’s controlled by N Korea?
    I don’t think the S Korean Government would like that too much…

    when you are the single S. Korean entity allowed to do business in N Korea it is obvious that you have agreed to give N Korea things that nobody else would.

    Sadly many multinational companies do business with hostile nations.
    Just look at many of the large banks and lenders.

    Certainly I’m not defending Trump, just think the outrage is a bit short sighted and there is a lot of selective outrage on this one..

    I wonder if S Korea knows about what you suggest….

    Also I did some digging seems that every article I could find had a similar quote that Daewoo did business in N korea in the 1990’s. No mention that it still did so it really doesn’t seem that there is any currently link with Daewoo to N korea for the last 20 years.
