Narrative summary
The Korea Heungjin Trading Company is used by KOMID for trading purposes. We suspect it has been involved in supplying missile-related goods to Iran’s Shahid Hemmat Industrial Group (SHIG). Heungjin has been associated with KOMID, and, more specifically, KOMID’s procurement office. Heungjin has been used to procure an advanced digital controller with applications in missile design. KOMID was designated by the Committee in April 2009 and is the DPRK’s primary arms dealer and main exporter of goods and equipment related to ballistic missiles and conventional weapons. The Security Council designated SHIG in resolution 1737 (2006) as an entity involved in Iran’s ballistic missile programme.
What a listing is and is not. A designation is a decision of the Security Council under a sanctions regime. It is not a criminal conviction, and nothing on this page should be read as a finding by a court. Dates of birth are shown exactly as the Council states them — where the record says only a year, only a year appears here.
Passport and national identification numbers are in the source and are deliberately not reproduced. The official list is the authority for any compliance decision; this page is a readable copy and may lag it.
