The Korean Ambassador to the United States, Kang Kyung-wha, has vowed to bolster cooperation with U.S. officials to bolster bilateral investment, citing Hyundai Motor Group's recent investment in Alabama as proof of the deepening economic partnership between the two nations. During a Wednesday ceremony announcing Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama's plan to invest $450 million at its Montgomery plant, the ambassador emphasized Hyundai's role as a "outstanding example" of how the Korea-U.S. alliance has evolved beyond security ties into economic and technological cooperation over the past seven decades.
