April 9, 2026
A comment from attorney Hyuk Jung Kim was featured in the Aju Business Daily. “Defense products, which had gained popularity in Europe, are also expanding their presence in the Middle East, leading to an increase in corporate advisory.” Regarding Aju’s report, he noted, “While exports were previously concentrated in countries such as Poland and Norway, the proportion of exports to the Middle East has grown following the Iran conflict. In many cases, we now prepare the initial draft ourselves during the contract stage.”
