Ask what Korea is talking about.

HD Hyundai reported third-quarter operating profit of 2.9197 trillion won, up 71.5% from a year earlier, with revenue up 21.2% to 22.08 trillion won, driven by shipbuilding and construction equipment profitability, according to Chosun Ilbo and Yonhap. Net profit rose 40% to 1.38 trillion won, as Korea Times and Yonhap report. Korean media highlight the strong performance across shipbuilding and machinery segments, with HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering benefiting from productivity gains and higher vessel prices, though its own Q3 net profit fell 11.4% to 777 billion won, per Yonhap.
