Alas, it's inevitable John.
There would have been people working in that factory when those photos were taken, whose parents would have dreamt of the way things used to be done and what life was like before the arrival of manufacturing on a giant scale.
In 2 or 3 decades from now the South Koreans will be remembering the days when they used to build cars.
It just keeps going until we run out of developing countries. As consumers, we just keep looking for the next low cost supplier.
