Salary negotiations between the Hyundai Motor Union and management broke down, and a full-day strike began on Friday. Against the backdrop of sluggish automobile sales, the strike raised concerns in the market that production would be further blocked. This is the first time in ten years that the car company's union has held an 8-hour full-scale strike. Hyundai Motor's Ulsan, Jeonju, and Asan plant production lines will be shut down for a total of 16 hours in two shifts. About 39,000 trade union members participated in the strike.
