Ask what Korea is talking about.

Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) ended negotiations with the Daewoo E&C and Doosan Enerbility consortium over the construction contract for the Dukovany nuclear power plant in the Czech Republic, a project valued at 26-27 trillion won ($19.4-20.23 billion). Yonhap reports KHNP announced the end of talks on Thursday, Oct. 29, with Business Korea noting the breakdown has sent Daewoo E&C and Doosan Enerbility shares tumbling. The Korea Times reports conflict erupted within 'Team Korea' over the construction contract, with the consortium pushing back against KHNP's terms. Korean media frame this as a 'money problem' breaking the team, with Business Korea describing it as a blow to the consortium. A U.S. official separately said Korean firms' participation in nuclear expansion is 'almost mandatory,' though this is unrelated to the Czech dispute.
