    I know we should all be used to it by now but it’s crazy to me that Daewoo makes everything from heavy equipment to container ships to cars to microwaves. Imagine having a refrigerator with a Chrysler badge on it.

      Hitachi is another another. Hydraulic excavators, air conditioners, elevators, vibrators, and ultrasound machines (for when you trade the vibrator in for the real thing. Either way they have a product for you).

      As a kid, my family’s first VCR was a Daewoo. Imagine my surprise when we passed some road construction and I saw the Daewoo excavators and other heavy machinery. Later on, a girl in my highschool class had a Daewoo car. That one blew my mind even more for some reason.
