H443 comes from an uncaptioned company photograph of a full-sized corporate flag, fringed gold except at the hoist. The reverse is visible, and Rosanoski assumes mirrored faces; otherwise the triangles would be reversed, with the second, orange triangle towards the fly. The inscription’s meaning and the reason for the orange triangle could not be established.
H444 is a gold-fringed table flag from the same uncaptioned gallery. Only the last five parts of its non-English inscription are fully visible, with apparently at least two more concealed. Its precise connection is unclear.
H441 is another gold-fringed corporate table flag. Its smaller black lettering reads “HEAVY INDUSTRIES CO. LTD.”
Hyundai Corporation was formed on 8 December 1976. Its listed shipping interests included Hyundai Merchant Marine, Hyundai Engineering & Construction and the associated Halla Maritime. Engineering & Construction began as Hyundai Construction in 1977 and took its later name in 1981. Hyundai Heavy Industries, formed on 23 March 1972, became independent of the group in February 2002, taking over Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries and Hyundai Mipo Dockyard. Other listed interests included marine development, shipbuilding and banking companies; Rosanoski explicitly assumes, rather than confirms, some of the bunkering, mining, petroleum and Singapore shipping connections.
