“We beat expectations in 2016 in terms of performance, thanks to the constant support and trust from our customers, despite difficult domestic and overseas economic conditions,” said POSCO CEO Ohjoon Kwon in the main event. “Customers like you are the engines that will lead the future growth of the Korean economy and the global steel industry. In order to lay the foundation for sustainable growth with our customers in 2017, POSCO will do everything it can to develop innovative solutions that provide customers with advanced solution marketing.”

In addition, attendees enjoyed the screening of a special video titled, “Dearest customers, we love you! We thank you!” The video humorously filmed customer responses as they received phone calls from POSCO saying, “I love you!”
Dinner began with toasts from POSCO CEO Ohjoon Kwon and Sang-woon Lee, Vice Chairman of Hyosung, and was followed by a performance from world-famous vocalist Paul Potts. In 2007, Potts catapulted to fame after winning the British audition program “Britain’s Got Talent”. Potts’ beautiful renditions of ‘Brindisi,’ ‘Parla Piu Piano’ (the theme of the film ‘The Godfather’), and ‘Missing Geumgang Mountain’ were warmly received by those in attendance, and Potts continued with an impressive duet with Korean musical singer Bada.

In addition, while further cementing its strategic partnerships with core customers, POSCO will be strengthening its differentiated competitive advantage through advanced solution marketing that helps unlock customer value.
