[KS] Foreign banking in South Korea in the late 1960s/early 1970s

[matthew bates]

Dear Sirs,

 

At a recent Anglo-Korean Society event was 
a gentleman who worked for Chase Manhatten in Seoul in the late '60s and early 
'70s when it (apparently) was the first foreign commercial bank in South 
Korea. His name is Glenn Irvine.

 

Among his memories is their 
general surprise the day two of Chung Ju Yung's sons came and announced 
that Hyundai wanted to start manufacturing motor cars.

 

Should 
this coincide with anyone's research interests, he would be happy to share his 
memories of that time, and has said I can pass on his contact 
details. 


Best wishes,


Matthew
