Striving to Move Ahead by Developing FCCL
That’s Thinner than Hair
- Youngjin Kim, Deputy General Manager (Doosan Corporation Electro-Materials Process Tech Team Co., Ltd.),
is working to enhance FCCL for Smart Devices.
FCCL (Flexible Copper Clad Laminate) may be an unfamiliar
term, but it’s an indispensable material in producing small
and medium smart devices. FCCL is used in mobile phones,
digital cameras, and tablet computers, and has been growing
continuously as the current market trend is focused on
compact and light-weight electronic products. As of the first
half of 2013, Doosan Corporation’s Electro-Materials BG has
the No. 1 global market share in this area. FCCL has also been
a cash cow for Doosan Corporation divisions, as it accounts
for 10% of the revenue in 2012. This month’s “Our People,
Our Tomorrow” story features Youngjin Kim, who has been
instrumental in developing FCCL.
Kim has had a non-stop schedule as additional factories have
been built during the past several years as result of the IT
boom. Kim joined Doosan in 1999 and oversaw production
and quality control of copper clad laminate (CCL) for 10 years
before he transferred to FCCL production in 2010. To meet the
high demand, seven production machines were added to the
Iksan factory and Kim was in charge of optimizing the
process. As Deputy Director, he also participated in the mass
production of FCCL-TFT in China’s Changsu factory from March
to June 2012 and contributed in manufacturing quality
products.

두산사보영문 2014.02내지-최종.indd 3
“The Iksan factory is in Korea, but Changsu factory is in
China, so everything was unfamiliar. After four months of
putting together a TFT for the technology, quality, installment,
production and management engineers, we were able to
manage the raw materials, manufacture the product, conduct
quality inspections and send off shipments with the local
staff. I believe we achieved our goal in such a short time
because of timely decisions and full support by our
leadership. Kim’s team has been working in timely fashion to
add production machines and even increased productivity
during the process. Last year, Kim’s team contributed to an
increase in revenue by adding two production machines at
the Changsu factory. The Electro-Materials BG’s performance
was recognized in 2013 with a Doosan Technology Innovation
Award.
Secret to Technology Innovation is Cultivating People
“Our corporation recognizes employees’ differences,” Kim
said. “Rather than sit around and wait for our employees to
achieve a goal, we invest in fostering their growth. I believe
that’s the secret to continuous technological innovation.”
Until last year, Kim was the Parts Leader of the Process
Technology Team at Iksan factory. One of his roles was to
mentor the less experienced employees. Kim added, “I seek
to pass on my knowledge to the up-and-coming employees
so we can achieve the growth of the company through the
growth of our people.”
Kim said, “Because the field of telecommunication moves
forward at such a fast pace we need to prepare for the next
stage. The existing FCCL is 9um (micro meter; 1um is 1
millionth of a meter) and we are preparing to make 6um
FCCL. Naturally, there are many risks involved in producing
FCCL that’s one-tenth the thickness of hair (10um), so we
need to put our heads together and have a strong will to
achieve this goal.” Kim’s spirit to constantly raise the
industry bar reflects Doosan’s strength.

“If You Want to Live the Doosan
Way, Make ‘WHY’ Part of
Your Life”
- Results of the WHY Campaign Contestant Event
- Producing a sequel video per participants’ ideas
This WHY campaign video included three situations in which Why
doesn’t occur and asks the contestants to submit entries explaining
why such situations happen and what to do to about them.
Doosan’s WHY Campaign Participant Event was held January
15-29. The focus of this event was on what Doosan people
need to do to achieve WHY: Thinking when working,
Explaining the goal and purpose of the task, and Asking
when in question. For this campaign, a video was produced
showing three situations when “WHY” didn’t happen. The
video was posted on the Doosan portal for employees in
Korea to participate in a contest. They were to watch the
video and explain why those situations occurred and how
to resolve each situation. A total of 183 contestants entered
their ideas.
WHY Doesn’t Happen Because of Busy Schedules
One of the entries was from Baekhoon Kim, an employee of
the Doosan Corporation Mottrol BG Hydraulic Purchasing
Team. He said WHY doesn’t happen because of peoples’
busy schedules. His analysis was that, “Because everyone
is busy, tasks are given out without a full background
explanation or purpose. The emphasis is on what needs to
be done. Similarly when given a task, you are focused on
completing it as soon as possible, so there isn’t enough
time to ask questions. I think that's the reason WHY doesn’t
happen. He also added, “Asking questions could imply that
you didn’t understand the given task fully in the first place,
so you are afraid of giving a bad impression to your
supervisor. And, sometimes the work environment doesn’t
allow you to engage in open communication with others.”
Kim continued, “It may take longer to explain the
background information when giving a task, but doing it
that way can produce higher quality work that exceeds the
results when only brief instructions are given out.”
Sangyoun Bang’s (General Manager of Doosan Heavy
Industries & Construction Nuclear Business Group RCP R&D)
entry showed a well thought out way to give instructions to
employees. In response to proposing a way to solve one of
the situations in the campaign video (in this video a
supervisor gives a task to an employee by saying, “Write a
five-page report to give to the Vice President.”), Bang
submitted the following answer: “Instead of giving such
brief instructions, he could have said, “The first page of the
report should include a summary of ___as discussed in
____ meeting, the second page should include the second
issue and the last page needs to include such and such.
Please let me know if you don’t have the meeting minutes
or report on the product development project. Do you have
any questions or is there anything you don’t understand?
Also, use the following design template for the
presentation.” This answer provided much more detail for
the worker.
Producing Sequel Video Based on Ideas Submitted to
Campaign
The executive team that organized the event said, “The
entries clearly reflected that participants gave a lot of
thought to our questions. I think this shows that our efforts
to prompt them to think about the WHY campaign through
various avenues, such as Doosan Way Time, has paid off. It
has had a positive effect.”
The executive team selected 60 contestants and gave out
prizes, including an iPad mini and Doosan Bears sweaters. A
sequel video being produced with the contestants’ ideas is
underway, and some of the entries will also be available on
the Doosan Way discussion boards.

G2 Engine’s Innovative Technology
Recognized in Europe
- Doosan Infracore’s G2 Engine Receives Award for Excellence
from UK Forklifts Truck Association (FLTA)
G2 engine has three models:
1.8 L, 2.4 L, 3.4 L. The one in
the picture is 2.4 L model.
The efficiency and green technology behind Doosan Infracore’s
G2* engine was recently recognized in Europe. On February 6,
the G2 diesel engine received the Innovation Award at the
2014 FLTA Awards for Excellence from the UK Forklift Truck
Association (FLTA). As one of the UK’s most trusted
associations, FLTA hands out its Year of Excellence Awards to
industries, people, or technologies that have contributed the
most in terms of innovation, environment, ergonomics and
safety. Doosan Infracore competed against its competitors and
six other companies that were also nominated for the award.
Winners were voted by visitors to the FLTA website.
The G2 engine sets a new standard in non-DPF (diesel
particulate filter) technology, and will be mounted in Tier 4
Final Bobcat® loaders, excavators and Toolcat™ utility work
machines. Because of this innovative approach, the G2 engine
was also selected as one of the “10 Mechanical Technologies
of the Year” at the end of 2013 by the Korean Association of
Mechanical Engineering Societies(KAMES).
In addition to being used on Bobcat equipment, the G2
engine is also used in 2 to 3.5-ton forklifts manufactured by
Doosan Corporation Industrial Vehicle. Because it is mountable
on equipment manufactured in domestic and overseas plants,
the G2 replaces engines once imported from other countries.
Tim Waples, Director of Doosan Industrial Vehicle UK said, “We
believe the G2 is a shining example of the applied research
and development capability within the Doosan Group and
4
shows Korean innovation at its best. Instead of trying to
modify an existing engine to comply with new regulations, our
designers made a completely new engine that reduces
emissions so much that a particulates filter is no longer
needed.”
Wonjoon Choi, Vice President of Doosan Infracore’s Engine BG
Strategy commented, “This Year of Excellence award is going
to be the backbone in securing customers and it will also give
us a breakthrough in engine-powered forklifts sales.” He
added, “I sincerely thank our staff who have given their all
from the design of the engine to production and sales.”
*The Doosan Infracore G2 engine is a high-efficiency, environmentally friendly engine
that uses Doosan’s Ultra Low PM Combustion (ULPC) to reduce exhaustive emissions.
The G2 engine meets the Tier 4 Final emissions standard, which is the most strict
exhaust regulatory standard, without using a high-cost diesel particulate filter.
Doosan Infracore completed construction of the G2 Engine Production Plant in
October 2012 and began producing engines for forklifts. The plant is in full swing to
produce engines that will be mounted on select Bobcat compact construction
equipment. The market for compact diesel engines is expected to expand to include
agricultural machinery, air compressors and forklifts.
On February 6, Doosan Infracore’s G2 engine received the Innovation Award at the 2014 FLTA Awards for
Excellence. Tim Waples (first from left), Director of Doosan Industrial Vehicle UK, accepted the award.

only brings back good memories, but more than that, it brings
hope to people enduring a long economic downturn. Everyone
can relate and find hope in a message that wishes everyone’s
success. Oricom seeks “Creative Excellence” to enhance the
value of customers and will continue to produce creative ad
campaigns that will be long remembered and loved.
Doosan’s “Our people, our tomorrow” campaign; this is a
favorite ad among college students.

Doosan Sits Down with
Executive Vice President Reg Bull, Doosan Corporation
Global HR Team
Article by Jaeyoung Lee (Doosan Corporation)
HR Executive Tries his
Hand at a Crime Thriller
- Published a Thriller Novel “Time Trial” in
November
- Interest in People Brings Inspiration to Write Stories
and Create Different Characters
Reg Bull, Executive Vice President of the Doosan Global
HR Team, debuts as a writer with a thriller novel called
“Time Trial.” Doosan sat down with the new author, who
has become Doosan’s “it-person,” to talk about his new
book. Mixed expressions of nervousness and excitement
were clearly visible from the author who just published
his first novel. Though he humbly calls his work a beach
novel—light reading for a vacation—the book explores
human nature and philosophically explains how humans
and society respond to fear. Time Trial is about a chase
game between detectives and a man in his 60s who
hides explosives all over the U.S. The original meaning of
the book title is “a way of measuring an individual’s
strength and endurance in a race against the clock to
secure the fastest time,” but Bull says the term is used
more ambiguously in the book. But he adds, “Once you
finish the book you’ll know what it means.”
Reg Bull holds his first book at his office at
Doosan Tower in Seoul

Thriller, an Unexpected Genre
Bull has been a vegetarian nearly all his life, he is always willing
to help those who ask for assistance, and he hasn’t had an
alcoholic drink since he was 16 years old. How could this kind
of a person depict the psychology of a man who kills innocent
people and write violent scenes so well? How could such a man
write a thriller?
“I have been a vegetarian for the past 40 years, but I’m
fine with others eating meat. It’s a personal choice for me,
not a point of argument with others. Similarly, I haven’t had
alcohol since I was 16, but I am pleased to see others enjoy it
responsibly. Here in Korea, I know I’m in a minority. It’s these
differences between people that attracted me to work in HR
in the first place, and it’s those same differences that enable
authors to create such rich characters that keep us all addicted
to reading.”
Bull joined Doosan in 2011 as Global HR Team Leader. He
has more than 30 years of experience in HR working for a
number of global companies in the UK, China, the U.S., and
the Netherlands. Bull is responsible for the ongoing operation
of Doosan’s global mobility policies and is working on the rollout of Doosan’s Code of Conduct approach, the design of our
Doosan Way aligned selection test for overseas applicants, and
many other similar pieces of work with a global character. He
also tends to act as a consultant for subsidiaries where they
would like another view on “how” to get things done in their
global environment. With such a large workload, it’s a wonder
he was able to write a novel.
“Not only do I never eat meat or drink, but neither do I
play golf! That means that every weekend when some of my
executive colleagues spend eight hours travelling to and playing
golf, I get that same amount of time to indulge my passion for
writing. So, just as they can fit their love of golf into their busy
lives, I can also enjoy my time in a more sedentary pursuit. As
is so often the case in life, it’s all about the choices we make.”
You’d think an HR executive would write a book on selfdevelopment, but Bull wrote a novel, moreover a thriller, a genre
that’s completely different from his expertise. We wondered why.
“I studied literature and politics in college, so I’m not so far
away from literary works. But, actually, it was not my studies
that made me write the book, it was a man called Denis Waitley.
He is what is often referred to as a motivational speaker, and
I vividly recall him saying, ‘If you want to do something, you’ll
find a way; but if you don’t want to do something, you’ll find
an excuse.’ I realized that I sometimes finished reading books
saying, ‘I could do better than that,’ so Waitley was my spur to
answer back to myself, ‘Okay, then, why don’t you stop moaning
and just get on and do it!’ I chose the crime-thriller theme
because it best suited some of the characters and messages
that I wanted to incorporate. I also wanted to write a book
that more people would want to read, rather than the deeply
layered, psychological relationship tome that would appeal to a
smaller readership.”
Success is Giving It Your Best
Even though his first book has just been published he still has
much to write. He has plans for five novels: the sequel to Time
Trial, two other thrillers, and two novels in different genres. He
also writes poems in his spare time and he is currently writing
one on the Korean War. Once he is satisfied with literary works
he plans to move on to sculpture and painting.
“I want to work on a piece of sculpture or a painting that’s
completely for me and no one else.”
What Bull said about success, that “success is not always
about being the ‘first’, but it is always about giving the ‘best’
that each person has,” resonated in my head for a long time.
“We fail at 100% of the things we never begin.”
■ Time Trial Overview
Hidden in peaceable cities and towns across America, a staggering
number of explosive devices ingeniously seeded over a dark span
of 25 years are set to detonate during the next excruciating 48
months. The architect of this chilling abomination, the silver
haired Thomas Paine, has surrendered himself to the FBI
promising to cooperate on the curious proviso that he can
handpick the case’s investigation team. From a crematorium to a
consulate; from a fast-food restaurant to the Hoover Dam—as the
dozens of targets slowly emerge, where will the bomber strike
next? Can Detective Sergeant Davie Song together with Paine’s
selection of other seemingly unconnected individuals unravel what
appears to be an old man’s motiveless crime? Will the young
team’s ingenuity prove enough to solve the complex clues they
have been set and get to the remaining devices in time? Full of
engrossing puzzles, twists and turns, along with some truly
memorable characters, it is the ideal novel for people who don’t
mind accidently missing their train station.
*You can find "Time Trial" on Amazon.com and the Barnes and Noble website.

Information & Communication BU SMART TFT’s “Our Story”
In many sectors of Doosan there are movements to strengthen
fundamental competitiveness through advanced processes and systems.
For instance, Doosan Infracore’s Engine BG turned a global crisis into an
opportunity, and, as result, increased productivity of large-size engines.
Doosan Engineering & Construction’s Heat Recovery Steam Generator
(HRSG) BG completed a guidebook on the steel frame structure of the
HRSG and increased customer satisfaction. The Doosan Information &
Communication BU’s SMART Task Force Team (TFT) developed an
effective mobile application that merged IT technology with conference
room culture. As such, the following cases introduce how business and

Teamwork Helps Avoid Crisis
- Doosan Infracore’s Engine BG Large-size Engine Productivity
Improvement TFT; Prepared to Manufacture 15,000 Engines in 2014
Article and photos by Jongbeom Woo (Doosan Infracore)
Since 2012, there were rumors about the low-end engine
market, which is what the Engine BG places a high priority in.
Because of the global recession in the construction market,
top-tier competitors in high-end markets were on the move to
the low-end market.
As a leading company in the low-end engine market, this was
not good news. However, by taking sound measures, the
Engine BG turned the tide of the market before the crisis hit.
Last year, the Engine BG sold 10,865 units of large-size engines,
bringing sales revenue of approximately $227 million. The
number of units sold and sales revenue increased 26% and
22%, respectively.
Fast, Accurate Execution by Sales Representatives is Key
The shift of leading companies to the low-end engine market
was correct as expected. To move ahead of the game, the
Engine BG did several things. First, a study was conducted to
examine 30 manufacturers that take up the majority of the
large-size engine’s sales in the industry. Then, the usage of
Doosan Infracore’s engines was analyzed along with possible
niche markets for Doosan Infracore’s product.
BG leaders were also quick to jump into action. Engines BG
Director and Executive Vice President Honggoo Lee and other
executives visited clients abroad to promise to increase product
quality and aftermarket service. Thanks to these efforts, Doosan
Infracore secured an annual volume of 2,982 units

(approximately $54.6 million) with the three biggest customers
in Turkey at an early stage. These leaders also visited the
regional sales headquarters of the clients’ vehicle manufacturers
that use Doosan engines to promise quality improvement and
prompt attention when issues arise.
Once the leaders visited the sites, big and small changes
followed. Previously, when clients placed a request for a special
engine, the production staff simply passed along the request.
Now, Doosan Infracore collaborates with clients step-by-step to
meet their requests. As a result, engine delivery now takes 15
days, down from 45-60 days previously. Needless to say,
relations between Doosan Infracore and its clients have
improved.
Passion of Production Line Staff Despite Overtime
The increase in sales volume was a good sign, but it didn’t
come without challenges. Based on initial orders, the Engine
BG expected to produce 10,730 units, a 24% increase over the
previous year. This number was far beyond what the production
line could manufacture, which was 9,500 units.
However, the production line staff was enthusiastic about the
sales increase and worked overtime without complaint. The
operating system ran 24 hours a day. In addition, to strengthen
the competitiveness of the production line, the team worked to
increase its productivity. Some parts were outsourced to
optimize the production process and possible equipment
failures on the production line were pre-analyzed to prevent
any possible maintenance system failure.
As the failure of equipment significantly decreased, the average
equipment utilization rate increased from 61% to 88%. Even
when the factory is in full gear there is less equipment failure
and it has become much easier to meet delivery deadlines.
Since last May, Doosan Infracore has reached its goal of 1,000
units per month, and now has the system to manufacture
12,000 units per year.
Members of the Engine BG Large-size Engine Productivity
improvement TFT say, “We met often to examine the number of
units manufactured each month, changed schedules accordingly,
and frequently talked about changes happening in the market.
That was what our teamwork was like. We are happy to learn
that our team’s success has been shared in Doosan Way’s Our
Story and has given much motivation to other teams.” They
added, “Due to the high demand, we sold 12,000 units of the
large-size engine, an 11% increase from last year. I’m looking
forward to 2014. To meet the increasing demand of the market,
the Engine BG is planning to manufacture 15,000 units per year.”

Traits of Doosan People Make Things Possible
- Doosan Engineering & Construction HRSG Mechanical Design Team Completes
Technical Analysis Design for HRSG Steel Structure
Article by Kwon Jin Hee (Doosan Engineering & Construction)
The HRSG Mechanical Design Team that compiled the “Technical Analysis Design Guide for HRSG Steel Structure” (from left) Yun hyuk Jung, Dong min Lee (Deputy General Manager),
Sung hyun Nam, (Manager), Jong sun Yi, Seok cheol Ji (Deputy General Manager) and Kang soo Won (Manager).
The Doosan Engineering & Construction non-pressure part of
Heat Recovery Steam Generator (HRSG) Mechanical Design Team
compiled a guidebook, “Technical Analysis Design Guide for
HRSG Steel Structure,” after six months of hard work. The
contributors are Seok Cheol Ji (Deputy General Manager); Dong
min Lee (Deputy General Manager); Sung hyun Nam (Manager);
Kang soo Won (Manager); Yun hyuk Jung, and Jong sun Yi. The
guidebook was compiled in response to increasing inquiries
and comments about the technical analysis design of the HRSG
steel structure. Now, the company can respond to inquiries
quickly and systematically.
To guarantee HRSG’s fundamental competitiveness, the team
first gathered 101 cases which impacted to calculation of steel
structure from 2003-2013 projects. Once the cases were
collected and organized, the team analyzed issues that could
become potential risks and narrowed down customers’ key
interests. Based on the usual requests customers’ make, the
team made A, B, and C categories and tried to reflect those
issues in the guidebook.
The team further categorized content on steel structure, compared
and integrated currently available standards of structural design,
and compiled a first draft to secure its own design technology. As
a last step, everything in the guidebook was verified by team
members to ensure the effectiveness of the guide.
The deadline for completion of design structure is often
delayed, as companies make last-minute changes to their
orders, which sometimes means the delivery date gets pushed
back. However, as a result of this guidebook, these delays can
now be minimized. Moreover, as all the data are now
standardized, it is possible to analyze the structure in a uniform
manner, which means less time spent analyzing.
The biggest accomplishment HRSG has made is creating its own
guidebook on structure analysis, the backbone of HRSG. This
was possible because the team implemented Open
Communication, Tenacious Execution and Limitless Aspiration.
This accomplishment was recognized when the team won the
Doosan Engineering & Construction HRSG BG’s Doosan Way
Project Grand Prize last year.

Stop Searching for Empty Conference Rooms
- Doosan Information & Communication BU SMART TFT developed a mobile
app to make it easier to search for and reserve conference rooms
Way Team, Minho Lee of DI FCM Team, and Moonsung Lee of
DWI Team, came together.
Minho Lee of the Information & Communication BU, who participated in the
development of the mobile app, poses in front of his office.
From April to December last year, the Doosan Corporation
Information & Communication BU implemented a SMART Task
Force Team (TFT) to reduce ineffective work environments. As
one of the solutions to reduce work inefficiency, the team
launched a mobile app February 10, to make it much easier to
search for and reserve conference rooms.
The idea for the app began with issues surrounding the
“culture of meetings.” Questions like, “Why is it always so hard
to find an empty conference room for urgent meetings?” and
“Why do people come late for meetings?” were the impetus for
the development of the app.
Yes, there is an online system to make reservations and check
available rooms; however, there are times when users do not
cancel unneeded reservations in time. In some cases, meetings
finish early enough for other teams to use the room for the
remaining time, yet it is difficult to announce such a lastminute change. To improve the efficient use of conference
rooms, Information & Communication BU SMART TFT members
put their ideas together.
The collective input of ideas led to the birth of an app that
makes the room search and reservation process much easier.
Using the app, users can check in and check out of rooms,
giving others the ability to analyze the data as needed.
To successfully develop the app, Seongil Han (Assistant
Manager), Junyoung Bang of Information & Communication BU
DI SCM1 Team, Donghwa Lee (Assistant Manager) of Doosan
Check In and Check Out of a Conference Room
When users come to a conference room, they can check in by
scanning a QR code (Quick Response Code) or tagging NFC
(Near Field Communication). Check out is done in the same
way. Once the QR code is scanned or the NFC tagged, any
remaining time of the conference room changes to available
time in the app. When no one checks in to a reserved room for
a specific duration of time, the room reservation automatically
cancels, reducing the number of unused rooms and
encouraging employees to keep their reservations up to date.
The data is expected to be used in a variety of ways, such as
reducing costs and increasing usage of conference rooms. The
results will contribute to improved conference room culture in
the near future.
Donghwa Lee of the Information & Communication BU, who
participated in this project, said, “The development of this app
is meaningful in several ways. First, it reduces time spent
searching for vacant conference rooms and applies advanced
processes and systems to the targeted work environment.
Second, we use the data and IoT
(Internet of Things), which are both
the latest buzzwords these days. Lee
further added, “We hope this app
changes the company’s
meeting culture and
increases the efficient
use of conference
rooms.”

Doosan Bears Spring Camp
Rigorous Training for V4 at
Arizona and Miyazaki
- Coach Ilsoo Song: “I will strengthen players’ stamina and
level of play to create a well-balanced team”
- Three foreign players join the team through Major League
connection
Since the Doosan Bears came to a close second in last year’s
Korean Series, they are working to win V4 in 2014. This year’s
training camps are in Arizona, U.S., and Miyazaki, Japan. For the
first part of training, the pitcher and catcher teams were in
Arizona, while the fielder team trained in Miyazaki before both
teams reunited for training in Miyazaki on February 5.
Ilsoo Song, a new coach, is constantly talking with the players
and giving his all to the team. Song says, “Only when the
players practice hard can they survive to play in the first block.
My goal is for each player to build enough stamina to play the
whole season well and to bring each player’s level up in the
process of building a well-balanced team.”
Article by Jueui Hong (Doosan Corporation)
The players are training in a fun and light-hearted environment.
For instance, on New Year’s Day, players enjoyed the game of
Yut (a traditional Korean game played on the day of Lunar New
Year), and some players voluntarily flaunted their talent during
short breaks to lighten the mood. Team Leader Sungheun Hong
states, “We are experiencing empty nest syndrome as some of
our veteran players have left our team, but I see hope for our
future as some players are competing to take over those roles.
As of now, I’d say our team atmosphere is very good.” Pitcher
Leader Kyungeun Noh says, “This training is focused on
effectively reducing pitching counts and increasing endurance
that will last a season.”
The trio of foreign players, Dustin Nippert, Chris Volstad and
Jorge Cantu are also working in tune with the rest of the team
at the camp. The trio knows each other from Major League
Baseball. Nippert and Cantu played together when the Texas
Rangers advanced to the World Series in 2010. Cantu and
Volstad played for the Florida Marlins from 2008 to 2009.
Volstad says, “I’m excited because the Doosan Bears achieved
impressive results last year.”
The Doosan Bears are scheduled to play with Nippon
Professional Baseball teams SoftBank, Seibu and Rakuten in
Miyazaki and are scheduled to return to Korea March 5. Doosan
delivers pictures of the Doosan Bears in training.

Professionalism
Success Story: Generation X Engine
Demonstrates its Unique Characteristics
- Winning a contract for six container ships from China’s DSIC and development of
a new model a year in advance
- Doosan Engine developing an engine that increases output power and fuel
efficiency while decreasing gas emissions
Doosan Engine developed and completed a successful test run of the eco-friendly,
high-power Generation X engine early this year. The Generation X engine is designed
to strengthen output power by lengthening the pistons’ working distance. This engine
can reduce fuel costs per ship by about $771,000 and it cuts gas emissions by 7%.
The engine is expected to be mounted to a 3900 TEU-level container ship currently
being built at China’s state-owned shipyard, DSIC (Dalian Shipbuilding Industry Co.,
Ltd.), to be delivered to Singapore PIL (Pacific International Line) in June.
This issue’s “Professionalism” section focuses on Seung-pyo Ryu, Senior Research
Engineer of the New Technology Development Team; Bum-jin Cho, Manager of
Marketing & Sales of the Marine Engine Team; and Yang-hyo Kim, Assistant Manager
of the Operation Team, who have contributed to engine development, contracting and
trial tests, respectively.
The Generation X (Extremely Efficient)
engine, jointly developed by Doosan
Engine and Wärtsilä, a Swiss low-speed
diesel engine company, increases output
power by 15% compared to existing
models. An increase in the number of
stokes causes a decrease in engine
RPMs, but because of its greater output
power, the engine’s fuel economy is
enhanced. The engine allows vessels to
use large propellers, which, in turn,
allows the ship to operate more
efficiently. In fact, the Generation X
engine brings a 7% improvement in fuel
economy compared to existing engines.
As a result, gas emissions, such as NOx
or SOx were also decreased by 7%. An
existing engine of the same level can
produce 25,000 horsepower, but
Generation X brings it up to 29,000
horsepower. Because of this extra output
power, the Generation X can be used in
bulk carriers, tank ships and small and
medium container ships.
The process of developing such an
engine was not easy. During the initial
development stage in 2011, the plan was
to first develop the W-X62 model (with a
620mm cylinder) and then develop the
W-X72 model, which has a 720mm
cylinder. However, the company was able
to draw a contract for the W-X72 model,
allowing it to be developed a year ahead
of schedule.
Seung-pyo Ryu, Senior Research
Engineer of the New Technology
Development Team, who was in charge
of the joint development, says, “As with
The trio, which came together to make the
Generation X engine possible, poses in front of

any new engine, there were a lot of
things to examine in terms of the
development schedule, production and
assembly. We worked hard with the
design, purchase, manufacture, trial-test
and quality control divisions, and it was
such a great moment to see the engine
start. I learned that when we come
together with a common goal, there is
no problem we can’t solve.”
Strategic Sales Wins Fierce Contract Deal
Drawing a contract for the Generation X
engine was also a challenge. The process
began when Pacific International Line
(PIL), the world’s 14th largest shipping
company, placed an order for six 3900
TEU container ships at China’s 4th largest
shipyard, DSIC, during the first half of
2012. Because DSIC and PIL have had
many business transactions and
amicable relations with Doosan Engine,
it appeared that Doosan Engine was
well-positioned.
However, as DMD (Dalian Marine Diesel
Co., Ltd.), an engine maker affiliated
with CSIC (China Shipbuilding Industry
Co., Ltd.), rose as Doosan Engine’s
competitor, the competition looked
unfavorable for Doosan Engine. Facing a
difficult challenge, Doosan Engine’s
Marine Engine Marketing & Sales Team
approached the case strategically using
customer-focused analysis. Bum-jin Cho,
Manager of Marketing & Sales for the
Marine Engine Team says, “PIL provides
worldwide transportation service and
that’s where we got the idea. We made
our company’s worldwide A/S service
more appealing and emphasized the X72
engine that was being jointly developed
with WCH and that won us the contract
for all six container ships.” Choi gave a
big smile as he recalled the situation.
Successful Trial Run and Customer
Thank You Message
Once the contract was drawn
successfully, the Generation X engine
was created at the Doosan Engine Lowspeed Plant in two months. Once the
engine was put together, only the trial
test remained to see if the engine had
the horsepower and fuel economy that
was requested. Wärtsilä’s existing
engine, RT-flex, is an electronic control
engine that needs to be controlled
elsewhere, but the Generation X is an
engine with a self-controlled system, so
understanding the system was time-
consuming. The preparation process
needed to be extra meticulous because
this was the initial product.
Yang-hyo Kim, Assistant Manager of the
Operation Team, who was responsible
for the Generation X test trial, said,
“There were a number of issues when
we ran a test of the first Generation X
model. Putting our heads together to
solve every single problem we had made
me the manager I am today. Our product
passing the trial run and our team
receiving a thank you message from the
customer made our hard work worth it.
We had a sense of pride when we saw
the Generation X pass the trial test.”
Although Ryu, Cho and Kim were all on
different teams, they showed optimal
teamwork by cooperating to achieve one
common goal. Their strong collaboration
and execution reflect the Traits of
Doosan People.
*W6X72: This is a low-speed engine used in vessels
and large plants. The “6” indicates the number of
cylinders, and “72” indicates the diameter of each
cylinder. So, the W6X72 is a 6-cylinder engine and each
cylinder is 720 mm wide. The W6X72 has the
horsepower of about 3,000 2000cc sedans. The “W”
represents Wärtsilä and “X” means engine.
*TEU: TEU (Twenty-foot equivalent units) signifies the
size of a container. 1TEU is a container that is 20 feet
long, eight feet high and eight feet wide.

Our Doosan Talent
Kyungah Pyun of DIG Purchasing Team
18 Years of Sales Experience Abroad
Helps Her Find Solutions Easily
- Took an Excavator Driving Challenge While Visiting Korea on a Business Trip
Article by Kunuk Park, Deputy General Manager, DIG Purchasing Team
Incheon factory visit: Kyungah Pyun visited Doosan
Infracore’s Incheon factory in November.
The
European subsidiary of the
Doosan Infracore Machine
Tools BG, DIG (Doosan Infracore
Germany GmbH), is located in
Dormagen, Germany. Kyungah Pyun,
who works on the Purchasing Team, is a
passionate woman with loads of
curiosity. She never passes an
opportunity to take up a new challenge.
Her long-distance relationship with a
German ended happily with a marriage
in 2010, and, while studying German in
2011, she joined Doosan through a
friend’s connection.
“I’m responsible for machinery parts and
service, and I oversee 70-80 customers
from all over Europe, including Germany,
Hungary, Italy and Latvia. The production
schedule depends on having the right
machinery parts, and sometimes those
parts malfunction and need to be
replaced, so this work is very dynamic.”
You can imagine her busy schedule as
she receives more than 100 emails every
day. However, she uses her 18 years of
experience in the overseas Sales
Division well as she applies her
knowledge to strengthen relationships
with suppliers, sometimes bringing her
personal life into the conversation. “Last
December, I was visiting a company for
price negotiation, but we weren’t able to
reach an agreement. The negotiation
took longer than expected and I ended
up missing my flight at the Milan
Airport. It was right before Christmas
and I had to spend the night at the
airport. I was able to smile at the end,
because we reached a satisfying result
in our negotiation.”
When developing a new product,
instead of purchasing parts as requested
by the R&D Division, which is the
normal process, she seeks out new
avenues to bring about changes, such
as contacting a new supplier to get a
better deal.
Most DIG employees are very familiar
with machine tools, but they are not as
comfortable with construction
equipment. Pyun has a unique
experience in driving construction
equipment. During a business trip to
Korea in November, she took up a new
challenge when she visited the Service
Parts Center in Ansan – driving an
excavator.
“After driving an excavator, my fear of
construction equipment disappeared,
and I realized how important each and
every part is to our customers. I also
realized the importance of providing
equipment parts within 24 hours so
machines can be fixed as soon as
possible.”
Her colleagues are always amused when
they see the photo of her on an
excavator at her desk. The photo
reminds her of her business trip to
Korea and instantly makes her smile.

Paul Lundstrom of DICE U.S. North Dakora’s Gwinner Plant
When One Hobby Ends Another Begins
for Gwinner Tooling Engineer
By Megan Fraase, Communication Specialist, DICE
Paul is immersed in making an oak box.
Gwinner
Tooling
Engineer Paul
Lundstrom is a jack of all trades. He has
dabbled in pottery, bike riding, various
philanthropy projects and now,
woodworking. Up until March 2013, Paul
made and sold pottery to raise money
for the Great American Bike Race, a
Bismarck, North Dakota, USA, indoor
biking event that raises money to pay
for medical services and equipment for
children and young adults with cerebral
palsy or related disabilities.
The Great American Bike Race is close
to Paul’s heart because he was born
with cerebral palsy, but that hasn’t
stopped him from doing anything he
sets his mind to. “I treat my disability
like I don’t have one,” he said. “Since
I’m more active than most people, my
friends don’t even notice it anymore.”
Paul eventually realized that using a
pottery wheel was too strenuous for his
arm and had to stop. Needing a new
hobby, he began buying the equipment
necessary for woodworking. Soon, he
hatched the idea for his first project, a
small oak box. “Like all my projects, I
get an idea and I just go for it,” he
says.
Because Paul only has the use of one
arm, he has come up with creative
solutions to get the work done, such as
clamps to hold the pieces together and
special grooves cut into the wood with
his router table. “I’ve been working with
one arm for 34 years, so it doesn’t seem
that hard to me now,” he says.
Right now, he makes the boxes for
friends and family and doesn’t have
plans to sell them. Paul says one person
did offer to buy his first box, but he
opted not to sell it since it took four
months to complete. Now, he can make
a box in a week. “I didn’t really want to
sell it because it took so long,” he says.
“You’re figuring everything out as you
go, and once you make a cut, you’re
done if you screw up.” Paul is currently
working on a box for a friend’s wife. “I
figure if someone else can enjoy it, I’ll
get more pleasure out of it too,” he
said.
Currently, Paul has a router, a router
table and a chop saw set up in his twostall garage. “Those tools are pretty
one-arm friendly,” he says. To make
more space in his garage, he removed
the pottery wheel and used the base of
it for his router table. “I try to get out
there after work when I’m not too tired,
and I just go from there,” he says. “I
get a lot done, especially since I hooked
up my computer to my stereo so I can
listen to music.”
Paul’s interest in woodworking stems
from his childhood and spending time
with his grandpa. “My grandpa was a
really talented woodworker,” he said.
“When I was little, I made all sorts of
stuff with his help in his basement.”
Now, he uses woodworking as a creative
outlet. “I just love the smell of the
sawdust. In anything I do, I love taking
many parts and creating something new
and different and solid,” he said.

> part, which focused on recognizing traits of Doosan people, employees worked the Doosan Way puzzle (to understand
the transformation process) and participated in discussions to gain an in-depth understanding of the Doosan Way. This
was the first year to implement an online training component prior to the actual Training Program, which allows for
more in-depth on-site discussion and debate. In addition, the Training program included a lecture by Doosan Group
Chairman Yongmaan Park, the New Year’s concert, and a tour of Doosan’s main business sites in Korea.
Doosan introduces the New Employee Training Program for the second half of 2013 along with pictures that show the
new employees’ passion and enthusiasm.
“We can go where no one can!”
New employees practice “Youth
Doosan Anthem.”

1. “We are becoming one by building teamwork!” The new employees build trust by joining hands.
2. “We are the Doosan newbies!” New employees attend the New Year’s music concert.
3. “Being a member of the Doosan family puts a big smile on my face.” New employees smile as
they are greeted by friendly staff at a business site.
4. “Put our hands together! Is everyone ready? OK!” New employees—who have only known each
other for a few hours—work together to build teamwork.
5. “Our dreams are getting bigger as we see the main business sites.” The new employees tour
Doosan Infracore’s Gunsan Plant.

“Doosan is the oldest corporation in Korea! Let’s have Doosan pride by singing Youth
Doosan Anthem!”
[Explore DOOSAN]: The first part of the training program is to help new employees
understand Doosan’s history, business, and its vision and strategy. In other words,
these topics are the core topics new employees need to know about to become
Doosan people. The corporate portfolio, which included the process of Doosan’s
transformation from its humble beginnings in 1896, to its current state as a global
Infrastructure Support Business (ISB), was enough to pique the interest of the new
employees. The new employees also learned a song called “Youth Doosan Anthem,”
which they performed at the Doosan New Year’s concert. Through song, they expressed
how they feel to have become a part of the Doosan family.

“We will be the last piece of the Doosan Way puzzle!”
[Be DOOSAN] The second part of the training focuses on the Traits of Doosan People.
The first step is to understand what Doosan looks for in its employees through the
“Proud Doosan People” course and to learn those qualities through the “D-Challenge”
training program.
The new employees who came to the training program with prior knowledge from the
online course were able to finish the Doosan Way Transformation Model Puzzle. They
also took part in an Open Communication session after learning more about the birth
of the Doosan Way and a few actual cases. One of the participants said, “I thought we
would have to memorize a fixed manual, but we had the opportunity to interpret the
Doosan Way on our own and discuss its future direction, which was a really impressive
experience.
1. “The Doosan Way starts from listening!” New employees listen to each other’s
opinions attentively.
2. “The Doosan Way Change Model puzzle is finished!” New employees complete the
Doosan Way Change Model Puzzle based on their online training.
3. “We are two mountains, too!” The new employees use gestures and tools to create a
unique way to say “Doosan.” (“Doo” is pronounced similarly to the Korean word for the
number two, and “san” has the same pronunciation as the word “mountain” in Korean).
4. “I think that’s a great idea!” Rather than pushing forward their own opinions, they
listen to each other.

“The D-Challenge that strengthens teamwork was also an opportunity to learn about
the Traits of Doosan People.”
The most active discussions take place during the D-Challenge. The new employees
are divided into teams and are given a task to solve. As they work through the task,
they become more familiar with the Traits of Doosan People. For instance, teams are
given part of a map and must find the best route by deciphering various codes. At first
they seemed lost, but with time, each team finished the tasks successfully by using
Priority Focus and Tenacious Execution, which are skills and characteristics Doosan
people embody in solving problems.
1. “We are on the right track, right?” New employees
examine the road map carefully to locate the target.
2. “Everything is going according to our plan!” New
employees take confident steps forward as they look
for the target.
3. “Jump up to reach a higher goal!” New employees
jump up to become Doosan’s future for the next 100
years.
“New employees demonstrate what they learned through their talents and passion!”
The purpose of this program is to put together all the learned materials and to give a
vision to the new employees. During the “Inhwa Doosan” session, employees
demonstrated what they learned about the Traits of Doosan People through various
performances. They were only given a short period of time to prepare for the session,
but employees shared their personalities and unique talents through music, shadow
theater and Nanta performances.
1. “People are the future! We are the future!” New employees pose in front of a camera as they promise to be the future
of Doosan by practicing the Traits of Doosan People.
2. “Openness! Openness!” New employees express Open Communication in one voice through a musical performance.

Horses the True Love of Doosan
Infracore Employee
- Bongkyun Yun of Doosan Infracore, A Man of Many Talents
- Has appeared on Korean TV shows “TV Animal Farm,” and “Unlimited Zone Q”
As 2014 is the year of the blue horse (cheongma), there is much interest in horses.
The horse was subject to hunting in old times, but later became useful for wars and
farming; in more recent years horses have also been important for sports and riding.
Horses are also known for their obedience and loyalty to their owners. Doosan
introduces a man who’s passion is horses for these reasons and more. Doosan met
with Bongkyun Yun of Doosan Infracore.

A Local Celebrity
Bongkyun Yun is a household name in
Geojedo Island in Korea. He lives in
Geojedo and works in Tongyoung. These
days, he’s famous for his love of horses,
but he is also famous for other reasons.
He participates in body-building
competitions where he lifts 100kg (220
pounds). He also enjoys deep-sea
diving and catching rare fish. He is
skilled in catching large flounder and
eel and enjoys eating them raw with his
neighbors. That’s not all. He is also a
songwriter and composer and he works
with well-known songwriters to produce
music. He is a real jack of all trades.
He made his first TV appearance in
2009 on SBS’s “TV Animal Farm.” He
appeared as the owner of Samsunyi, a
dog that herds wild goats all year. He
also appeared on the last episode of
MBC’s “Unlimited Zone Q” for his love
of horses. More recently, a KBS New
Year’s special documentary called
“Talking with Horses” interviewed him
as an expert. He says, “Unfortunately,
my full shot wasn’t aired. I even wore a
Doosan jacket for marketing purposes,
Bong-pal-yi poses next to a Doosan excavator. This
horse has been with Bongkyun the longest.
“I ride the horse as
fast as I can. The
feeling I get when
I’m galloping with
a horse is
exhilarating.
Words can’t
express how that
feels.”
but I was only included in a group
scene (laughs).”
Have you heard of people who go to
the grocery store on horseback?
He currently owns 11 horses. His
approximately 16-acre horse farm, which
he runs with a close friend, is about a
half mile from his house. One of his
favorite horses is Bong-pal-yi, a horse
that’s been with him the longest.
Another favorite is Dun-bak-gol, a horse
that came from the Netherlands. “I go
into town or shop for groceries with
Dun-bak-gol. Usually horses can’t find
their way home from a crowded place,
but Dun-bak-gol is smart enough to find
his way. This horse has even been
housebroken,” Bongkyun says.
His love of horses began about nine
years ago. He saw a close friend ride a
horse and thought to himself, “This is
it! I saw my friend looking awesome on
a horse and I’ve been in love with
horses since then.” He doesn’t just ride
horses for fun; he also rides horses
competitively. So far, he has participated
in competitions sponsored by the Korea
Equestrian Federation and has won five
medals.
Bongkyun takes riding lessons on
weekends. “I ride the horse as fast as I
can. The feeling I get when I’m galloping
with a horse is exhilarating. Words can’t
express how that feels. At first, I fell off
the horse a few times. So, I started
working out so I could ride better. After
work, I usually exercise for about three
hours to be for fit enough for horse
riding."
Horses are Like Family; They Provide
the Strength to Go On
Bongkyun joined Doosan in 1982 at age
18. He has been with Doosan for 33
years, even when Doosan used to be
Daewoo Shipbuilding. He says, “I had a
difficult childhood, but now thanks to
Doosan I’m able to enjoy my hobbies
like horse riding. I’m really thankful. I
wouldn’t be who I am today if I wasn’t
with Doosan all these years.”
Bongkyun says having his 11 horses
wouldn’t have been possible if not for
Doosan. “Animals never betray men,
only men do. I love the loyalty of my
horses. I have two wishes this year: The
first one is to share my horses with all
Geojedo residents and the second one
is for all Doosan employees to be
happy and successful.”

included in the 2014 edition of Marquis Who’s Who.
“I Want to Develop the World’s
No. 1 Product”
- Changhee Lee, Senior Research Engineer of Doosan Engine, becomes a listee in
all three World’s renowned biographical references
How
does it feel to be listed in
all three of World’s
renowned biographical references? Lee
received a big Christmas gift last year.
He became listed in the UK’s IBC
(International Biographical Center) and
thus received the honor of being listed
in all three of World’s renowned
biographical references. However, it’s not
his first time being listed. Lee, who is in
charge of optimizing low-speed engine

was also listed in Marquis Who’s Who in
December 2011. Lee says he was very
honored and ecstatic to be listed in the
IBC again this year and also to be listed
in all three of World’s renowned
biographical references.
Lee has thus far published more than 70
articles in nationally and internationally
prestigious journals. He also attends a
number of national and international
conferences, including SAE (the Society
of Automotive Engineers), AVL (Austrian-

Tech Forum, which focus on engine
combustion technology. Since 2010, he
has been acting as a member of the
evaluation committee for the Ministry of
Trade, Industry & Energy R&D project
and the Korea Institute of Energy
Technology Evaluation and Planning. Lee
says being part of international activities
gives him new ideas and insights about
the latest technologies in many areas.
Family and Mentor Give Him Strength to
Continue
Lee says he wouldn’t have been able to
achieve what he has today without
support from his wife. Lee married his
wife in 2000 during his first year of the
Mechanical Engineering doctorate
program. At that time, Lee’s wife earned
living expenses by giving piano lessons
and playing in an orchestra. During late
nights at the Hanyang University lab,
Lee’s wife brought food for him and his
colleagues.
“I’m so thankful for my wife for being
there for me and supporting me. I’m also
thankful for my daughter, who practically
lived in the lab with me the past four
years. I’m also grateful for Professor Lee
and my advising faculty for supporting
me; he even laid a carpet on our lab
floor so my daughter could play. I
thought the best way to repay my family
and mentor was with my research. So, I
did the best I could.”
His dissertation is entitled “A Study on
the Characteristics of the Combustion
and the Mixture Distribution of Liquid
and Vapor in a Direct Injection Gasoline
Engine,” and he has published one or
two articles in SCI (Science Citation
Index) journals since 2008.
“I enjoy thinking and researching. Maeil
Business Newspaper Reporter Jae Kwon
Son introduces a concept called ‘moonshot thinking’ in his book Disruptor.
Moon-shot thinking means shooting for
a radical innovation that no one has
imagined. My take on research is that it’s
far easier to create something that’s 10
times better than enhancing an existing
product by 10%, so that’s how I
approach my research,” he said.
Lee wants to contribute to the company
by collaborating with his colleagues to
produce the world’s #1 product. His
dream of becoming a role model for
junior researchers and a researcher who
is remembered doesn’t seem far away.

When
asked to say a word
after being selected
as a listee for the 31st edition of
Marquis Who’s Who in 2014, Yang says,
“I’m flattered to receive so many
congratulatory remarks from my
acquaintances. I’ll continue working
hard.”
Since joining Doosan in 1993, Yang has
worked in a number of fields including
the design and development of turbine/
generator’s bearing, rotordynamic
design, vibration diagnosis of high
speed rotating system, design of
starting & loading and operation of
turbine/generators.
His research on turbine reliability
design and efficiency design have been
applied to Doosan products and
businesses. In 2007, his work
contributed much in developing Doosan
Heavy Industries & Construction’s first
self-designed turbine Boryung 1 and 2.
The first self-designed project was
performed successfully without any
high vibration from the our own design
technology.
Yang, who was never a night owl, spent
many sleepless nights to fulfill his
responsibility as a turbine dynamic
reliability expert. Since then his work
has been recognized through Australia’s
Eraring project, Indonesia’s Cirebon
project and Thailand’s Gheco project,
as all of those contracts were drawn
successfully because of his recognized
work in turbine technology. To meet the
demands of the changing market,
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction
has independently developed and
successfully sold its first cogeneration
turbine, and Yang is at the center.
Yang is achieving the goal he had when
he first joined Doosan, which was to
“use his engineering knowledge to
contribute to the company and society.”
More than 50 articles have been
published in top-tier journals, such as
SCIE (Science Citation Index Expanded)
journals, and he has actively attended
international technology seminars and
presented at national conferences. He
wants to secure the reliability and
efficiency of the turbine design and he
also wants to be an engineer who is
open to two-way dialogue. In addition,
Yang has been interested in mentoring
junior researchers to make Doosan
even more competitive.

Doosan’s New Technologies Pave the Way
“Embracing world-class technology and innovation is vital to our survival.” (Excerpt from the Doosan Credo)
One of the ways to strengthen a company’s competiveness is new technology. When a company has an
original technology it can move a step ahead of the game and dominate the market.
This issue of Doosan highlights three of Doosan’s new technologies that have received much attention lately.
Doosan’s New Technologies Pave the Way ①
Independently Developed Mechanical
Wheel Loader Transmission
- DISD, Assemble Full-fledged Mass Production
Article by Lian qiang Geng, DISD Wheel Loader Team
Members of the DISD
Development Team that made the
DT501, from left: Zhongwei Liu,
Peina Huang, Jun wei Song, Lian
qiang Geng, and Yuan Wang.
The transmission is an important part of a wheel loader,
because it determines the machine’s performance. Together with
the engine and axles, the transmission forms the power system.
When equipment is in operation, the power system changes the
engine’s deceleration to suit driving conditions and optimizes
engine performance per task, allowing for a smoother ride. In
addition, because wheel loaders work in a variety of
environments, many global construction equipment companies
develop their own parts to guarantee outstanding performance
and seek a reliable supply and demand chain. DISD (Doosan
Infracore Shandong), for instance, underscored challenges
Chinese companies face in enhancing transmission quality and
decided to independently develop its own transmission.
DISD Stabilizes Supply of Parts and Strengthens
Competitiveness of Equipment
The transmission used in DISD wheel loader production is a
mechanical transmission made up of planetary gears. This costeffective mechanical transmission now accounts for more than
90% of the market share in China. The DISD Development Team
started work on developing its own independent transmission
in February 2011. The DISD researchers began from the initial
design, undergoing a number of procedures, including assembly
simulation using CATIA 3D, FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect
Analysis), and PPAP (Product Part Approval Process). The
completed product is the DT501.This transmission differs from
transmissions provided by local suppliers.
First, the team had to address an issue with oil leakage in the
design stage. To lessen oil leakage, the team replaced the
transmission’s internal seal material with high-strength asbestos
latex. Asbestos latex effectively prevents oil leakage because it
doesn’t mix with oil and has high performance in recovery and
compression.
Second, the team had to minimize shift shock. To accomplish
this, they used two layers of shifting valve structures to absorb
shocks. Also, to prevent shift delay, the team optimized the
number of holes in the piston rings. Lastly, the oil pan and
gearbox were developed in an all-in-one system to avoid
potential issues. The assembly method was also developed in
an all-in-one system to prevent parts from being damaged.
In February 2012, the first prototype of the DT501 was
completed. In February 2013, performance and durability tests
were completed and a pilot program was mounted on wheel
loaders in three separate trials. The DT501 has received positive
feedback from customers, as the team encountered few issues
during the 2013 pilot period. Mass production of the product
has been in full swing since January.
However, the DISD Development Team is not satisfied with an
independently developed mechanical transmission. It plans to
assemble a prototype of an electronically controlled automatic
transmission this year that meets the global standard. China’s
construction equipment industry is facing its worst recession ever,
but the efforts of the DISD researchers to enhance the wheel
loader’s performance and quality is bringing hope for the future.
*DT501: “DT” stands for Doosan Transmission, “5” indicates five-ton equipment, and “01”
signifies displacement.

Doosan’s New Technologies Pave the Way ②
APR+ Technology Will Lead the Nation
- Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Enhances Power
Generating Capacity to 1500MWe, Strengthens Economic
Feasibility and Safety
Article by Sehwan Lee (Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction)
Toward the end of 2013, the National Academy of Engineering of
Korea released its list of the "100 technologies and driving
forces that will lead Korea’s industries in the year 2020." The
National Academy of Engineering of Korea has selected leading
technologies and developments that will lead the creative
economy of Korea in the near future. A group of 120 experts
worked for 17 months (starting in August 2012) to compile the
list. The experts first named visions of the future in 2020 and
selected development projects for each vision category.
On this list of 100 leading technologies, two Doosan Heavy
Industries & Construction technologies have been included: the
Advanced Power Reactor Plus (APR+), a next-generation nuclear
power plant in the Nuclear Power Category, and large gas turbine
technology for the Technology and Thermal Power Category. In
addition, Tae Jung Park (General Manager of the Doosan Heavy
Industries & Construction Steam Generator Design Team) and
Jung woo Lee (Deputy General Manager of Doosan Heavy
Industries & Construction Gas Turbine Development Project
Management Team) were named driving forces who will lead
Korea’s industries in 2020. This issue of Doosan introduces
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction’s APR+ technology. In
2007, the government chose the development of APR+ as the
next assignment and implemented a three-stage development
plan to be completed by 2015. APR+ will receive SDA (Standard
Design Approval) soon, and the third stage will be in full swing.
The APR+ is an upgrade of an existing model, the Korean
Advanced Reactor APR1400. It has a power-generating capacity
of 1500MWe, compared to the APR1400’s 1400MWe of powergenerating capacity, and has enhanced economic feasibility and
safety. It also is Korea’s future reactor type to be exported. To
qualify for Nu-Tech 2015, a program to develop domestic nuclear
Reactor type APR+ is the next
generation of Korean Reactor type
designed to be an export product; its
performance, safety, and transparency
have been significantly strengthened.
Doosan Heavy Industries &
Construction plans to design and
provide machinery for nuclear power
plants, such as steam generator and
nuclear reactor.
Tae Jung Park, General Manager of the
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction
Component Engineering Team, has enhanced
the design and production of key
components in the APR+ nuclear power plant.
power plants for export, the government and Korea Hydro &
Nuclear Power jointly led the project. Doosan Heavy Industries &
Construction is in charge of its design of major component.
Based on the design of the APR1400 being constructed in Korea,
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction developed the knowhow to independently develop its own nuclear power plant
apart from the original design company. As result, it is expected
to dominate the Korean and global markets at a fast speed.
The APR+ not only has improved power output, but also has
optimized the design of key machineries, shortening the
construction time from 41 months to 36 months. Safety has also
been enhanced. In safety injection and related systems, multiple
designs have been put in place. The responding capacity has
also been strengthened in case of a power outage due to a
passive auxiliary feedwater system design. In addition, an
automatic stopping system has been installed to protect against
earthquakes. This feature was implemented following the
Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster of 2011. The design also
includes extra protection for the control center in the event of a
tsunami. Tae Jung Park (Chief Engineer of Doosan Heavy
Industries & Construction) has been selected as one of the
driving forces that will lead Korea’s industry in 2020. Park’s
contribution heightened the quality of design and production of
the APR+’s key machineries. In particular, Park designed and
applied a moisture separator system,* lightened the weight by
selecting high-strength materials, and improved the performance
and safety of the equipment. Park has also secured distinctive
design technology by developing a computer program that
evaluates the integrated performance of steam generator. Park
is an expert in designing key equipment for nuclear power
plants and steam generators. He has participated in the design
of reactor types developed in Korea, from the Westinghouse
AP1000 to the APR+. Park has been a key player in developing
the APR+, which is expected to shake up the Korean market for
new nuclear power plants and function as a new platform in
advancing into the global market.
*Moisture separation system: As one of the key components in a nuclear power plant, the
moisture separation system separates the saturated vapor that comes out of a steam generator.
Once the moisture is removed from the vapor, it is transmitted to the turbine system.

As humans pursue beauty, humans also desire to enjoy a view.
One cannot deny that the size of Korea influenced the
construction of high-rise buildings in Korea. These high-rise
buildings are possible because of high-strength concrete.
Building a high-rise building without high-strength concrete
requires more support columns, which means the building has
less space for tenants. Hence, high-strength concrete must be
used in buildings higher than 40 stories or in buildings that
need to be durable.
The standards of high-strength concrete differ per country, as
shown in Figure 1. In general, as determined by KS F 4009,
Korea has set high-strength concrete at 40-60 MPa (Mega
Pascal) and ultra-high performance concrete at 100 MPa or
above.
In 2007, through consistent research and development, Doosan
Engineering & Construction Rexcon BU proposed the
readjustment of KS F 4009 ready-mix concrete’s high-strength
concrete level and the establishment of an authenticity
verification standard. Doosan Engineering & Construction
received Korea’s first KS certificate in high-strength concrete
(August 2007) and a KS certificate in light-weight concrete
(November 2011), becoming Korea’s first company to obtain all

Bae and the Rexcon Quality Control Team have put much effort
into developing and commercializing high-strength and
lightweight concrete. The team is also working to develop
special high-performance concrete to improve the quality of the
ready-mixed concrete industry.
The advance of high-strength concrete has developed with
admixture (e.g., mineral admixture, chemical admixture). Korean
1)
high-strength concrete generally uses fly ash , mineral
2)
admixture such as blast furnace slag , and polycarboxylic
3)
superplasticizer . However, more is needed to make ultra-high
performance concrete (UHPC). Hence, to create an optimal
4)
mixture considering the degree of compaction in unit volume
and chemical mixture repeated tests of mineral admixture, such
5)
as silica fume , were conducted. Also, tests with different
mineral admixture per place of production and type were also
conducted. Finally, a UHPC with improved bonding of physical
and chemical mixtures was born. Based on this mixture,
Doosan Engineering & Construction successfully developed
Korea’s highest performing UHPC at 250MPa (December 2008).
Doosan Engineering & Construction’s Rexcon BG commercialized
its new UHPC to a number of Korean construction sites. In
March 2011, it successfully constructed Korea’s highest
residential building, Doosan’s “We’ve the Zenith” (Doosan’s
apartment brand) in Haeundae, by pumping 120MPa UHPC to
the highest floor (300m) at the placing speed of 30m3/h. In
addition, UHPC has been used in “We’ve the Zenith” (59
floors/207m) in Ilsan, AID Reconstruction Apartments (53
floors/170m) in Haeundae, and Songdo’s representative
residential building, POSCO The # 1st World (64 floors/250m) in
Incheon. Currently, it is being used at the construction site of
“Doosan We've Gwell City” (45 floor/152m) in Cheongju City.
As such, UHPC technology is a must in constructing high-rise
buildings. However, because there are no national and
international guidelines in designing the mixture and
construction performance, Doosan Engineering & Construction
Rexcon BU’s technology and experience has secured the root of
competitiveness.
1) Fly ash: Coal ash generated during the combustion of coal. It reacts with Ca (OH)2, which is
the main component in making concrete.
2) Blast furnace slag: Nonmetallic waste that develops simultaneously with iron in a blast
furnace. It has a secondary reaction with the main components of concrete to form C-S-H.
3) Polycarboxylic superplasticizer is a light acid agent with superior performance in dispersing
cement particles at smaller dosages and retaining concrete slump without a prolonged setting
time. The electrostatic repulsion plays a role in the dispersing mechanism. It has higher
performance than the existing superplasticizer.
4) Degree of compaction in unit volume: The degree of compaction in a unit volume when
dominating power mixtures.
5) Silica fume: A byproduct of producing silicon metal or ferrosilicon alloys. Because of its
chemical and physical properties, it is a very reactive pozzolan. It is mixed as a very fine
powder with concrete’s main components to produce C-S-H. When mixed with concrete, it is
quite strong and durable.

From January 6- 24, Doosan Infracore
Technology Division R&D Team members
conducted cold weather testing of
construction equipment in Cheorwon,
Gangwon Province, Korea.
“We are having a hard time because the weather needs to get
colder!”
At 5 a.m. on January 16, the temperature at Cheorwon,
Gangwon Province, was 9 degrees below zero (Celsius).
However, Jungmin Kim, Senior Research Engineer of the Doosan
Infracore E&E Validation Team, worried the weather wasn’t cold
enough. Even when jumping up and down to stay warm, Kim
said nonchalantly, “The weather needs to get colder than 20
degrees below zero to test all functions of the equipment. We
need to wait a few days because the weather is not cold
enough now.”
In Korea, Cheorwon is famous for its cold weather. During its

coldest season of the year, 30 employees from Doosan
Infracore R&D Technology Division participated in a three-week
(January 6-24) construction machinery cold weather testing
session. They were determined to find every single problem the
cold weather could cause in the equipment. During the testing
period, the local temperature fell to 15 degrees below zero.
Until now, low-temperature tests were performed in the cold
chamber at the Incheon Reliability Center laboratory, but this
environment did not reflect all the conditions a customer could
face in the field. Indong Kim, Vice President of Doosan Infracore
Performance Integration, who organized the field test said, “We
temporarily rented a ready-mixed concrete plant in Cheorwon
to conduct this test. The main purpose of this test is to see for
ourselves the problems our customers can face in the field.
Cold weather can cause problems with the fuel system, fumes,
and electrical and electronic systems.”
“Our frozen faces gave way to rosy cheeks each day. We
repeated this for more than 20 days.”
Starting each day at 5 a.m. for three straight weeks, the
Technology Division Team worked to address customer issues
while enduring the cold. Geosun Hwang, Doosan Infracore Total
Performance T&D Team Research Engineer, while preparing for
the engine test said, “How do you think our customer working
on a mountain in the freezing cold reacts when our equipment
stops working?” Hwang explained the significance of this test
with this question.
He said, “We had to test our equipment by putting them in
similar situations as our customers deal with; that was our
thinking. We collected data on the engine oil, coolant, fuel and
oil temperature over several days, because many of our
customers put aside the equipment for days.” During a break,
Hwang took a seat near a heater to warm up and his cheeks
quickly turned ruby red. By his side were T&D team employees
writing up and organizing data with curled up fingers; their 20
days in the cold weather evident.
“This is going to be a great learning opportunity and stepping
stone for our less experienced researchers.”
A total of 17 machines were tested in the cold weather,
including some still in the development stage and competitors’
equipment. Hwang said, “During winter, the temperature at
Cheorwon falls to 20 degrees below zero. Not only does
Cheorwon provide the temperature we need, but we are also
able to test our equipment in a large open space. That is the

biggest advantage of this location. As far as I know, this cold
weather test station is the first in Korea. It’s going to be a great
learning opportunity and stepping stone for less experienced
researchers.”
Ian Hooper, Project Manager from Scania® of Sweden, also
visited the site to test Scania engines. Cold weather testing for
construction equipment is also new for Scania engineers.
Hooper said, “We conduct cold weather testing for trucks and
buses, but conducting cold weather testing with excavators and
wheel loaders is new for me. This was a great learning
experience.”
Kwangsoon Kwak, Assistant Research Engineer of the Doosan
Infracore Total Performance T&D Team, said, “I heard many
things from our customers during this testing period. Their
feedback is hard to understand when you only work in
laboratories. When I get back to the office I plan on continuing
to resolve possible customer dissatisfaction quickly.”
“I’m so proud of my colleagues for working in an orderly
fashion every dawn,” commented Assistant Research Engineer
Kim. “I was concerned because we hadn’t done this before and
we had to make the most of our time. This experience allowed
us to hear the concerns of our customers and we now have a
clearer idea of what to do when we get back to our office. This
has been helpful in a number of ways.”
“Customer satisfaction is related to our personal growth.”
The majority of the engines tested are for the Europe and U.S.
markets. Because of the large number of customers in those
regions, it’s important to prevent problems that could occur in
the field. Hyeongho Kim, General Manager of the Doosan
Infracore Total Performance T&D Team, said, “We will gather
and analyze data and experiences for the purposes of
enhancing our work performance. We also plan to conduct
virtual testing in the future.” He also added, “Our team of
researchers have now experienced the field and have a new
perspective on customer satisfaction.”
The cold weather testing period officially ended January 24.
However, when the temperature in Cheorwon dropped to 20
degrees below zero, 10 or so researchers went back to
Cheorwon to conduct additional tests. Vice President Kim said,
“Our hands, feet and even our mouths froze, so we had trouble
speaking, but we never lost our nerve.” Kim added, “With the
mindset that the performance of our equipment is our
responsibility, we pour our hearts and souls into our products.”
On January 16, after testing
equipment early in the morning,
Doosan Infracore employees
gather in one place to show their
will to bring forward the best
technology in the world.

Why Does Tapering in the
U.S. Bring Crisis to Emerging
Markets?
The U.S.’s tapering, which can bring financial crisis to
developing nations, has been in the news recently. What is
tapering and why are developing nations being mentioned
along with the crisis? Also, countries like Turkey and Brazil
that have low current accounts are being identified as crisisprone countries. What is this current account that identifies
countries vulnerable to crisis?
As a result of the global economic crisis in 2008, the U.S.
central bank, the Federal Reserve, drastically lowered the
benchmark interest rate. The interest rate cannot fall below
zero, but as the economy showed no signs of recovery, the
U.S. Federal Reserve created a monetary policy called
Quantitative Easing (QE). This policy uses the power of
central banks to issue currency to buy Mortgage Backed
Securities (MBS) and government bonds on the market to
avoid the market rate going up, and bring liquidity in the
market.
QE used to bring liquidity in the market is said to have
contributed to the economic recovery in the U.S. The
problem is that the liquidity supplied by the U.S. Federal
Reserve flowed into emerging markets. To investors expecting
a high return of capital, emerging markets in developing
countries were more attractive than the U.S. market, which
brought the crisis in the first place. There were countries that

Financial and foreign exchange

used this capital productively, but in many countries, this
capital flew into the asset market, which led to a significant
increase in real estate and stock prices. As a result, the
domestic market enjoyed great prosperity. When the
economic cycle is booming there is a tendency to spend
more than a nation can produce, which brings deficit. In
economic terms, this is called a current account deficit. When
a household is in deficit, it uses savings or takes loans;
similarly, when a country is in current account deficit it
borrows currency from abroad or uses its foreign assets. In
other words, to a country in current account deficit, it is
important to attract foreign assets home as there are
insufficient foreign assets.
When the U.S. Federal Reserve released funds with low
interest rates it was easy for developing countries to borrow
money. However, as the U.S. economy is recovering, the U.S.
Federal Reserve is reducing the QE. Such a reduction in QE is
referred to as tapering. As asset purchases are being cut
down, the liquidity of the global market is gradually
decreasing. As liquidity decreases, the bond agencies apply
more stringent standards in lending money. Here, the most
important thing is the current account situation. A country in
debt may not have issues if the country’s current account is
in surplus, but, it becomes an issue if a country is in current
account deficit, because it may not be able to pay off its
debt. Equally, it’s not easy to give a loan to a household that
has debt and is spending more than it is earning.
If a country loses its trust in the global financial market as a
result of a current account deficit, then stock and bond
investors pull out their money, which shakes up the financial
and foreign exchange markets. This phenomenon can cause
crisis in developing countries. As the situation gets worse it
becomes more difficult to get an extension (in paying debt)
or to take out a new foreign loan. A lack of foreign currency
means that a country cannot import necessary raw materials
and essential goods, which causes the exchange rate to soar,
prices to rise, and the whole country to face a crisis. Korea’s
1997 financial crisis was the result of a lack of foreign
currency.
Of course, having a current account deficit is not always a
bad thing. A household with stable income can take out a
loan to buy a house or car. Thus, for rapidly growing
countries with stable future revenue, having a current
account deficit is not a problem. So, it’s important to
understand the nature of a current account deficit. When the
global financial market is at unrest it becomes hard to make
a rational judgment. When anxiety spreads among investors
the global financial market is bound to fluctuate. Until it
becomes possible to judge the emerging markets clearly, the
global financial market will continue to rise and fall.

Customer Support Team and Warranty Team Under C/S
First, we provide customer value from the start of warrant until
the disposal of a power plant all the way through the power
plant’s lifecycle.
Second, we have a customer-oriented consciousness. We seek to
meet customer expectations at the point of contact and provide
value that far exceeds our competitors.
As such, our vision to be a “Global Leader in Power & Water”
means we aim to provide greater value to our customers, which
is Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction C/S’s core strategy.
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction recently created the C/S
division to manage customer relations comprehensively and meet
customer satisfaction leading to After Market Business, both of
which were previously taken care of by each business group.
There are two teams under C/S. The Customer Support Team is in
charge of setting up CS strategies, executing customer satisfaction
projects and Aftermarket. The Warranty Team is responsible for
defects-warranty of domestic power plants. Both teams consist of
members who have extensive experience in planning, process
control and production at home and abroad.
Sanghoon Park, C/S Division Vice President, said, “Many think C/S
means customer satisfaction, but our principle is to provide
higher value to our customer. Because of this, C/S includes all
sectors that relate to our clients, including service, support and
marketing.”
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction’s C/S Division plans to
accompany its usual annual survey with client interviews to better
understand and respond to their voices and heighten customer
satisfaction.
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction C/S Division is currently
establishing its management system, but the division is soon
expected to create a positive cycle where increased customer
satisfaction brings new business opportunities.
Vice President
Sanghoon Park
says, “Customer
service needs to
change constantly
to reflect the market
and the voice of the
customer.”

Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Ties Together Primary, Secondary
and Tertiary Suppliers to Make Smart Factories
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction has implemented a Shared Growth
Program in four ways: Competitiveness Support, Financial Support, Overseas
Expansion Support, and Communication Support. In particular, through
Shared Productivity, which is a part of Competitiveness Support, Doosan
Heavy Industries & Construction is in the process of constructing a Smart
Factory and Industry Innovation 3.0 Business Plan with secondary and
tertiary suppliers. This case study covers the creation of a Smart Factory in
detail under the theme of “secondary and tertiary suppliers transform with
EM Korea.” EM Korea is one of the primary suppliers, as it supplies largesize generator unit parts and nuclear power construction materials to
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction. EM Korea has been a major
supplier for Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction for 10 years. Through
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction’s support, EM Korea has
accomplished consistent innovation and is moving forward to reach a global
standard. While functioning as the main axis of the Doosan Heavy Industries
& Construction Cooperation Council, steadily growing EM Korea is achieving
multidimensional shared growth. In particular, EM Korea’s Smart Factory
project has been more meaningful this year as the project brought
innovation to secondary and tertiary suppliers. The Smart Factory project is
an innovative project launched to improve product quality.
The Smart Factory project ties primary, secondary and tertiary suppliers into
one to improve the work environment and production process. Experts
examine the production process and work environment and provide
guidance for technical issues to bring quality improvement to enhance
overall product quality and productivity. Adjunct Professor Gu ju Hwang of
Changwon National University’s Dept. of Industrial and Systems Engineering,
The “2013 Shared Growth Compilation of Excellent

was invited to be an external consultant on the Innovation Team, which
launched last July. EM Korea brought its secondary suppliers together:
Gyeongcheon Machines, Samhyun Precision Manufacturing and Woobong Tech.
Since the Innovation Team was officially launched, EM Korea worked on the 5S
initiative for three months until early October. 5S stands for “Sort, Straighten,
Shine, Standardize and Sustain,” which means that all materials in the factory
should be in the right place in the right amount and in the right container. It
also means the work environment should be organized and clean. This
initiative has brought big changes to the secondary and tertiary suppliers that
participated in this initiative.
When the EM Korea Innovation Team reported its accomplishments after 13
weeks, the results far exceeded expectations. Gyeongcheon Machines
decreased its inventory materials, reduced the time to prepare tools and
materials, and significantly reduced material transport time. Not only did work
productivity increase, the work environment became more pleasant for
employees and the company culture changed positively. Samhyun Precision
Manufacturing had similar results, but one of its biggest accomplishments was
that employees became more confident in innovative activities. Woobong Tech
increased the quality of its product by 80%. The participating companies
shared their aspirations to continue to address issues and make even smarter
factories.
When Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction created a small window of
opportunity, the suppliers transformed that opportunity to positive results. As
they become more competitive on their own, they, in turn, help Doosan Heavy
Industries & Construction, which brings even greater possibilities. Through the
initiative, the companies discovered that they too can make a better future.
Doosan Engineering & Construction Recognized as Industry’s First Company to
Implement Shared Growth Initiative
Doosan Engineering & Construction’s Shared Growth Initiative is equally as
diverse as Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction’s programs. Since 2007,
Doosan Engineering & Construction has been participating in Habitat for
Humanity® with suppliers in Chuncheon, Gangwon Province, Korea.
Doosan Engineering & Construction and its suppliers (that have been in
partnership for more than a decade) have created a self-sustaining organization
called Doowoo Organization, and the Habitat for Humanity project is one of
their activities. Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit organization that builds
homes for people in need, which fits in well with the strengths of Doosan
Engineering & Construction and its suppliers.
Doosan Engineering & Construction is also
concerned with suppliers’ employee benefits.
Since 2011, Doosan has partnered with Chung
Ang University Hospital to provide low-cost
health screenings to suppliers’ employees,
which has helped save lives. In one case, an
executive of a supplier was diagnosed with
early stage colorectal cancer. After two surgeries
he was able to return to work. He says, “I
wouldn’t have gone for a health screening if
Doosan Engineering & Construction didn’t
provide the service.” He was grateful for the
health screening when he first heard the
diagnosis. This experience strengthened
Doosan Engineering & Construction’s
partnership with that supplier, and Doosan
Engineering & Construction was able to
establish stronger relations with other suppliers
as a result.
The Shared Growth Initiative is a program
launched to share profit with suppliers when
new technology is developed. When the cost of
production is reduced or profits increase
(depending on the actual outcome),
contributing companies are compensated up to
50%. Thanks to these consistent efforts, in May
2012, Doosan Engineering & Construction
received the industry’s first certificate for
implementing the initiative.
In addition, to boost morale and bring safety
awareness to employees, Doosan Engineering
& Construction holds an annual “Safety Patrol”
event for field employees, and, to comply with
fair trade laws, Doosan voluntarily performs a
Fair Trade Compliance Program. Doosan is the
flagship company, as it provides financial
support along with the Competitiveness
Support Team to help suppliers improve their
technology.

Bringing Out
Creativity Through
Culture & Art
This year’s Children Art School was focused on “Art Gallery and Performance”
and “Art and Photo Production.” On the first day, students visited the National
Museum of Contemporary Art to see the contemporary art exhibition, and
afterward watched a musical, the “Wedding Singer,” at the Doosan Art Center.
On the second day, students participated in “I am a Portrait Artist,” a class
where they drew a picture of a friend on an OHP film which was then colored
in. Their art work was hung in the Doosan Art Center lobby. Students also
learned to take photos during “Photo Expedition Time,” by taking photos
based on a theme of their choice. They used the camera’s view finder to look
at the subject they were taking photos of. On the last day of the program,
students visited the Doosan Gallery to enjoy art pieces and while there,
learned some etiquette. Their last stop was Yonkang Hall, a musical theater,
to see “Space 111.” Students learned about special stage effects and etiquette
while watching the theater performance.

“This is my first time visiting an art gallery and
watching a musical. I learned about theater
etiquette. I think I’ve grown up a bit!”
Doosan hosted its 5th annual Doosan Children
Art School January 26-28. This year, 40
students from Chunbuk Elementary School in
Boryeong, Chungnam, participated in the
program. The Doosan Children Art School is
hosted by Doosan, and jointly organized by
the Doosan Yonkang Foundation and the Korea
Mecenat Association. The purpose of the
program is to provide culture and art
education and experience to elementary school
students who attend schools in areas with
relatively less culture and art programs.
Students Explore Independently to Build Self-confidence
One of the biggest strengths of the Children Art School is that it encourages
students to engage in exploration on their own so they can build selfconfidence. A student who participated in the program this year said, “I saw a
musical for the first time. It was impressive to see [performers] sing and dance
at the same time. I think it was more memorable because we watched the
musical and got to look around the theater and the stage and take pictures.”
One of the teachers who attended the program said, “I’m happy to see our
students learn, see and feel new things through this opportunity. They were
able to experience art with their whole body, which isn’t always possible in a
classroom.” Such a comment resonated among the teachers.

employees, Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction is now
publishing a newsletter called CSR Intelligence Clipping. This
newsletter will be released bimonthly in Korean and every quarter
in English in a PDF format and will be shared via e-mail with not
only the employees here in Korea at Doosan Heavy Industries &
Construction, but will be sent to our overseas subsidiaries as well
on a regular basis. CSR team plans to have it constantly upgraded
by covering the recent CSR activities carried out each quarter and
reflecting the readers’ opinions. The coverage will mostly be about
the Doosan Group and Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction’s
CSR strategic framework, activities and major CSR trends, all of
which will be provided to help our subsidiaries plan the direction
of their CSR initiatives. A CSR glossary will also be included to help
provide a better understanding on the subject, as well as a cartoon
strip and other various information, such as recent developments
or changes in the CSR team and a section to give special thanks to
the people who helped with creating the clipping.
According to CSR Intelligence Clipping, CSR is defined as a business
activity based on stakeholders who build long-term coexistence
relationship, and take responsibility for company’s mid and longterm raising value. In line with the CSR strategic approach, the goal
is to become the ‘Fortune’s Most Admired Global Company in 2020’.
More specifically, it is proposed to be 1) people-centered, to 2)
establish reliable management, and to be 3) (engaged in)
responsible participation in order to support sustained growth with
responsibility. The clipping also includes some contents like
regional CSR trends (policies, legal regulations, other companies’
best practices & results). The publication of such a clipping will
help to promote the sharing of information and support our
company’s proactive and continuous CSR efforts.
‘CSR Intelligence Clipping’,
published by Doosan Heavy
Industries & Construction both in
Korean and English, includes CSR
strategy as well as internal and
external latest CSR trends.

mentoring by signing up to participate for a third year. Son said,
“Through the Dream School mentoring program, I have a better
understanding of my own children. I’m happy to have received
this award, and I hope to motivate more people to become
mentors.” Son received the Individual Division Award last year for
participating in a Junior Engineering School, where he taught
principles of science to children at a children’s hospital. “I was
worried the children at the hospital would be worn out, but they
followed the program well. It was a very rewarding experience.”
The Corporate R&D Division HR Team that received the Club
Division Award is made up of employees who joined the company
in 2012. They take turns and visit study groups of nearby
communities every other week. Hwang, who received the award
on behalf of the team said, “We will spend this award on buying
materials for the study groups.”

Doosan Yonkang Foundation Takes Science Teachers on Academic Field Trip
“People are the
future, Science is the
future, Education is
the future!”
- The 8th Doosan Yonkang Foundation
Academic Field Trip for Science Teachers
- Field trip to Changwon Doosan Industrial
Park, and Osaka, Japan, Science,
Technology and Education centers
“People are the future, science is the future
and education is the future,” shouted science
teachers who participated in the 8th Doosan
Yonkang Foundation science teacher field visit
program. Since 2007, Doosan’s Yonkang
Foundation has invited the recipients of the
“Science Teacher of the Year” to participate in
an Academic Field Trip Program that takes
them to experience science, technology and
education overseas. This program is hosted by
the Korea Ministry of Science, ICT and Future
Planning and is supervised by the Korea
Foundation for the Advancement of Science &
Creativity. This year, 36 teachers were invited
to visit Doosan Industrial Park in Changwon,
Kyungnam and various science-related
museums and high schools that specialize in
science in Osaka, Japan. <Editor’s note>
Chairman of Doosan Yonkang Foundation, Yong Hyun Park, gives
a welcome greeting to the participating teachers at the Doosan
Heavy Industries & Construction Guest House.
Proud Teacher! Proud Doosan!

Blacksmiths’ Chorus Full of Workmanship
Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction, Doosan Engine, and Doosan DST,
are all located in Changwon, Korea. After putting on safety helmets, we
started our field trip with a tour of the Doosan Industrial Park.
As soon as we walked into the Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction
Welding Plant, Verdi’s rhythmical and grand “Anvil Chorus (Chorus of the
Blacksmith)” filled my head. Watching workers weld a piece of steel with
pressure that weighs more than 200,000 adults was enough to capture our
attention. During the tour around the nuclear power plant, we were told it
takes three years to create the steam generator and two-and-a-half years to
develop the reactor. When employees told us how they feel when they send
out a finished product they have spent so much time and effort on, I could
sense their workmanship. We felt proud as we rode in armored vehicles at
Doosan DST and when we saw an engine the size of a playground (an
engine for large ships) at Doosan Engine.
During the welcome dinner and orientation held on our first night, Chairman
of Doosan Yonkang Foundation, Yong Hyun Park, greeted and welcomed us
with a warm smile. Chairman Park and the rest of the Doosan family treated
us like neighbors. Warm welcomes made the teachers shout, “Proud
Teachers! Proud Doosan!” from the very first night and from that day on, we
fell in love with Doosan.
Osaka Science Museum Tour Returns Teachers to Childhood
Our full-fledged program began when we went to Japan. The Osaka Science
Museum provides space to experience our knowledge on the cosmos,
chemicals, electricity and energy. The curator informed us that 700,000
people visit the museum annually and that one-third of the visitors are
On the first day of the Academic Field Trip for the science teachers, the teachers visited Heavy Industries &

the teachers, emphasizing the importance
of education.
students. When I turned back to look at our group upon hearing this, I saw
members of our group transforming into young children. Their eyes were
beaming and they clapped hands occasionally with amusement. In one
corner, a group of Japanese children experienced how force changes in
varying degrees depending on the number of pulleys. Others built an arched
bridge to learn about the center of gravity. These children were learning
principles of science in such a natural way. Bernoulli’s principle—an increase
in a liquid’s speed creates a pressure decrease—is somewhat difficult to
understand, but this principle was demonstrated with an easy to understand
model (a fan hooked to the top of a long pipe and a quickly turning fan
forced a ball on the bottom of the pipe to move upward).
What makes adults and children alike want to visit this place? Yes, state-ofthe-art equipment is important, but I was moved by the explanation provided
by the museum curator, who stressed the importance of providing
opportunities to experience principles of science and continuously
researching to achieve this goal. While touring the museum we admired
equipment that seemed to have been there for a long time, yet was still fully
functioning. We wondered how that could be. At that moment, we saw an
elderly employee on his knees fixing equipment with great care. While we
were told that the museum’s principle is to immediately fix broken
equipment, the scene spoke volumes.
Japanese Schools Recognize Individual Differences
A teacher wearing a white gown opened the gate of Osaka Kochi Super
Science High School and welcomed us with a big smile; this marked the
beginning of our high school tour. Osaka Kochi SSHS is a prestigious high
school founded about 100 years ago. With its motto, “Freedom and
Creation,” the school emphasizes an education that teaches students to have
responsibilities while allowing them to express their individuality through a
relaxed dress code. Perhaps for these reasons there were active student
organizations and many events were run and organized by the students
themselves. We also had an opportunity to visit a classroom that was
carrying out a project. At SSHS, students are allowed to select a project of
their choice at the beginning of the year. When we visited the class, students
were having a discussion on the “Condition of sunlight on red bean growth.”
Students’ notepads were filled with data and graphs. Another team of
students worked on experiments where they adjusted independent variables
(changing the values of independent variables influences the outcome of a
given model or experiment). While observing students’ activities, I could see
that this was a true self-directed learning process. One of the students said
her dream is to be a “composer who loves quantum mechanics.” That
evening, after observing an education system that acknowledges students’
unique differences, I became lost in thought.
Wrapping Up the Field Trip
During the Academic Field Trip, we were able to thoroughly enjoy what Osaka
has to offer courtesy of Doosan’s Yonkang Foundation. They took great care
of us. Thanks to the foundation, we were able to try Japanese steamed rice
cakes backed by 300 years of tradition, delicious ice cream after exploring
the Osaka Castle and hot chocolate at the Golden Pavilion. They even made

sure we had souvenirs to take back after the trip. I was especially impressed
to see Chairman of Doosan Yonkang Foundation, Yong Hyun Park,
accompanying us throughout the whole trip. His free and easy style made us
at ease and his dedication made me proud to be a teacher. Now I look
forward to going back to our school to share what I experienced through this
trip; reflecting back on what Doosan has done for us, I want to share with
my students as much as possible.
The day after I came back from the trip, I visited a nearby library to check
out A Compass to Fulfillment: Passion and Spirituality in Life and Business. I
wanted to learn how the author keeps his words consistent with his actions.
I wonder if this change is as a result of Doosan’s corporate philosophy,
“People are our future,” and the positive thinking the Chairman emphasized:
“Your thoughts create all things.”

Raising Nobel Prize Laureates from an Early Age
So far, Japan has had 19 Nobel Prize laureates. There are seven laureates in
Chemistry; seven in Physics; two in Physiology or Medicine; one in Peace;
and two in Literature. The Fields Medal, referred to as the Nobel Prize in
Mathematics (awarded once every four years), has been given out to three
Japanese mathematicians. Such a record is unprecedented in Asia. I often
read in the news about Korean students winning awards at various
international math and science competitions. Among three East Asian
countries, Korean students’ performance does not fall behind that of Japan
and China. However, Korea has yet to produce a Nobel Prize laureate. Why is
that? I found the answer during the Doosan Yonkang Foundation Academic
Field Trip.

Teachers check out an exhibit at the Osaka Science Museum.
I was able to find the answer to my question while visiting the Osaka
Science Museum and the Kobe Municipal Science Museum for Youth. At first
sight, with both buildings being much smaller and less elaborate than
science museums in Korea, I set my expectations low. However, while taking
the tour inside the museums, I quickly realized I was wrong. When I take
students to science museums in Korea, I always lament the lack of
experiential learning. It’s great to have many types of equipment to look at,
but I always thought there could be more facilities in which students can
learn by doing. The two science museums in Japan have equipment that
allows students to have hands-on experience in science. Students there were
learning about the pulley principle and sound waves with their bodies.
Almost all the equipment could be learned through experience and students
could confirm what they’ve learned by reading the manual next to the
equipment; it was as if a science class had been transferred to a museum.
Children at the museum looked both amused and serious while learning.
Science education in Korea takes a spiral approach; in other words, what
students learn in elementary school repeats in middle and high school, the
material differing only in breadth and depth. But even if it’s the same
content, depending on how students learn, the learning outcome can be
entirely different. A Korean student in fifth grade will learn that magnets and
currents have magnetic fields by conducting two separate tests. Japanese
middle and high school students are able to predict the direction of the
magnetic field by conducting the two tests; this is because hands-on
experience allows for more in-depth learning. The experimental apparatus
that shows the magnetic field of the magnet has been used in Science
Festivals in Korea. Although such an apparatus is interesting, the effects are
short-lived. An environment in which students can play with the equipment
and learn by doing is what we need. I believe this small difference is what
makes science education in Korea and Japan different.
The Place I Found My Childhood Dream: Shimadzu Factory

a museum where you can feel the spirit of entrepreneurship and invention.

Teachers take a picture in front of the Science Museum at the Kobe Municipal Science Museum for Youth.
Hearing an explanation from the director and seeing more than 100 medical
devices that the Shimadzu family (father and son) have collected put us in
awe. When we were left to explore the museum on our own, a poster caught
my eye. There was a Japanese child wearing a Kimono looking inside a
DeLorean® (the time-traveling car featured in the “Back to the Future”
trilogy). The director of the museum explained that the poster was designed
to show Shimadzu’s curiosity when he was a child.
The first of the “Back to the Future” movies came out in 1985, while the last
“Back to the Future” movie was released in 1990. This trilogy is about a man
who travels in time. I dreamed of becoming a scientist when I saw this movie
in elementary school. Even now, when I have a problem or run out of new
ideas I go back to these movies. So, I was ecstatic to see a “Back to the
Future” poster, a movie that gave me a dream to be an engineer, in an
unexpected place. I, too, liked to assemble machines like Shimadzu; at the
museum, I was able to resolve a question I had about the movie.
In the movie, the DeLorean gets hit by lightning and a scientist who goes by
“Doc” says, “No wonder this circuit failed. It says ‘Made in Japan.'” The other
main character says, “What do you mean, Doc? All the best stuff is made in
Japan.” At the time, I didn’t know why the main character was talking about
Japan-made products. I thought, “Products made in Korea are pretty good
too.” But, after 20 years, and coming to work for Doosan, I came to realize
what that main character meant.
I came to dream about becoming a scientist after watching a movie; similar
to my case, my students will also make a small discovery on their own or run
into a new experience that will make them want to become scientists. I came
to envy the Japanese educational environment that acknowledges children’s
curiosity and provides full support so they can pursue their curiosity.
Knowing that transformation begins from small steps, from me and our group
of teachers who participated in this field trip as well as all educators in
Korea, I became lighthearted. With small changes I believe we can provide a
sound environment where our children can keep their dream of becoming
future scientists.
This poster hangs on a wall in the Shimadzu Factory at
the Kyoto Entrepreneurship Memorial Museum. You can
see a DeLorean, a car featured in the “Back to the
Future” trilogy. The poster was designed by the
Shimadzu Factory.

conversation about the Doosan Way. Kids ask their parents about the
difference between the Material Management Team and the Maintenance
Team and the structure of the wheel loader. They also look to see if their
family members are included in any of the photos. Pictures of familiar faces
prompt kids to ask about the acquaintances’ latest news and ask their
parents if they can see them. Looking through the latest IT trends section,
kids beg their parents to get them the latest gadget. The DIEU families get
so into the newsletter they forget that the food on the table is getting cold.
The Frameries Edition has become an exciting medium that connects
coworkers and family members alike.

Saudi Arabian Style
Wedding, Separate
Reception for Male
and Female Guests
Eun Sook Lee reports from the United
Arab Emirates (Doosan Heavy Industries
& Construction EPC BG Middle East
Operation Center Manager)
A few years ago, I was invited to a friend’s
wedding when I attended high school in the
Middle East. One of the unique characteristics
of the wedding was that all guests were
women and I was the only Asian. It was
interesting to see how a wedding could only
have female guests, but I was more surprised
to learn that I could not see the groom.
Turns out, the wedding culture in Islamic
countries like Saudi Arabia is very different
from Korea’s wedding culture. In Islamic
countries, religious leaders preside over the
ceremony and only about three witnesses,
along with the bride and groom, attend the
main ceremony (typically the witnesses are
three men or two women and a man). A
reception follows the main ceremony at a
nearby hotel, but there are two separate
receptions for male and female guests.
Once the female guests enter their reception
hall, they take off their Abayas (loose overgarment women wear to cover their body) and
show off their colorful dresses and accessories.
Their colorful dresses are gorgeous, but what
stands out more is their makeup, which
emphasizes their facial features and enhances
their beauty.
When guests enter the reception hall, they give
cheek kisses and nose-to-nose kisses to the
bride and groom’s families. The family of the
bride and groom enters the reception hall long
after they greet the guests. Food is served
once all the guests arrive. A popular menu is
Mandi, which is a traditional Arab dish made of
meat and rice (the meat is usually cooked in a
tandoor, which is a special kind of oven in the
ground). Once guests finish eating, male and
Male wedding guests chat at a Saudi Arabia wedding reception.
female guests celebrate the wedding by
dancing the traditional dance, separately.
The wedding ends when the bride and
groom leave the reception. As the female
guests leave the reception, they put their
Abayas back on.
My curiosity about the men’s side of
things was resolved after Jung Tae Kim,
General Manager of EPC BG Middle East
Operation Center, attended a Saudi Arabia
branch employee’s son’s wedding. He too
was unable to see the bride and was only

families. The wedding Kim attended was
the groom’s wedding with his third wife, but nothing in particular was different
from other weddings (Saudi Arabia allows polygamy and men can have up to
four wives).
Wedding culture varies depending on religion and locations, but the one
common thread through all weddings is that it’s a day for families and friends
to come together to celebrate the unity of a couple. If you remember this fact,
any wedding is a day of celebration, wherever you are.
Mandi, a traditional Arab food, is served at the wedding reception.

at the Doosan Leadership Institute in Seoul. The symposium was hosted by
the Doosan Infracore CIO (Chief Information Office).
The symposium was held to strengthen the strategic execution of the

was established last February. Senior Vice President Kap Kim and team
leaders of BG/Headquarter PI and IDS attended the symposium. Kim said,
“For the company to become an innovative organization, the collaboration
of the company as one team needs to be based on strong communication.”

changes in IT investment governance, and prospects in medium- and longterm IT investment. Many discussions were held to minimize differences
between IDS and BG/Headquarter PI and find ways to maximize
performance through communication and collaboration. In particular, there
were many suggestions to strengthen communication for the purpose of
creating two-way dialogue, strengthening strategic execution and creating a
culture of negotiation rather than engaging in communication only to share
