Doosan and Daewoo are not the same company. Daewoo Group has gone bankrupt and Doosan Group is still there. Doosan Daewoo can be seen on the excavator because Doosan Group acquired the construction machinery industry under Daewoo Group and changed its name to Doosan after the acquisition. Just like Nokia's mobile phone subsidiary was acquired by Microsoft, but the two companies are not the same company.

1, both Korean enterprises and local consortia. They all have various industries, and the excavator industry is a subsidiary of their respective consortia.

The financial crisis broke out in Asia from 65438 to 0997. Foreign banks and institutional investors began to withdraw funds. The fund-raising situation of Daewoo Group tends to deteriorate. In the past period of macroeconomic prosperity, domestic financial institutions in Korea borrowed a lot of overseas funds and lent them to chaebol enterprises like Daewoo. With the expansion of capital structure, the return on investment of Daewoo Group has improved. However, after the outbreak of the financial crisis, the high debt ratio of Daewoo Group caused a huge debt burden, and the decrease in profits led to a decline in the stock price, which caused a huge blow to investment. Daewoo Group stepped down from the altar and filed for bankruptcy.

In 2005, Doosan Group acquired Daewoo Comprehensive Machinery Company and established Doosan Basic Engineering Company to produce Doosan excavators. On April 29th, 2005, Doosan Group acquired 5 1% equity of Daewoo Integrated Machinery Co., Ltd. and changed its name to Doosan Infrastructure Support Business, thus entering the field of infrastructure support business and starting a new journey.
