Summary

Park Jeong-ung revisits Chung Ju-yung’s work through recollections shaped by his years in international affairs at the Federation of Korean Industries. This Korean-language volume follows Hyundai’s entry into demanding projects and markets, including cars, shipbuilding, Middle Eastern construction, steel and the Gyeongbu Expressway. It also covers negotiations over independent car development, encounters with foreign figures and Chung’s work habits and personal relationships. Later sections offer photographs, a chronology and reflections on the meaning of his career. The checked 2022 edition revises Park’s earlier account, as his signed preface explains. Its perspective combines a colleague’s observations with a later effort to preserve and interpret the founder’s example.
