초록

From virtually no steel production after the Koran war, steel industry in Korea had a phenomenal growth to reach crude steel production of 40 million tons level in 1997 and became the 6th largest steel producer in the world. The growth owes to steel technologies developed elsewhere over centuries and decisive management decisions to adopt new technologies as quickly as possible. Steel technologies are reviewed and brief overviews of welding research in Korea are presented.
