Original source: Daum

A camper van manufacturer in South Korea's Gyeongnam province is experiencing financial difficulties, leading to delivery delays and consumer complaints. Approximately 30 customers have not received their vehicles for over a year, with estimated damages reaching billions of won, and some have filed police reports or lawsuits. The company cites supply chain issues and a cash crunch, reducing its monthly production from 15 units to 3-4, and states it is securing additional funds while offering extended warranties as compensation.
