South Korea: Interview with Chanyoung Heo, Kuehne+Nagel Korea Labour Union

Chanyoung is leader of a small union in Korea that represents workers at Kuehne+Nagel, a German-owned logistics company.  For 20 years, industrial relations at the company were good.  Now they aren't.  What happened?  Why did the workers vote overwhelmingly to go on strike?
