    South Korean manufacturers of cold-rolled flat products saidthat they will continue to bear the burden of increasing production costs inthe middle of the year. Previously they had reduced losses by cuttingproduction levels, and some producers had to overcome the current difficultiesby raising prices. Related parties expect that although the shipment price ofKorean cold-rolled flat products has been confirmed to increase in July, it isstill difficult to make up for the losses of producers, so additional priceincreases may be difficult to avoid.
