=== Breakup and present status === The group was reorganized into three separate parts: [[Daewoo Electronics|Daewoo Corporation]], [[Daewoo E&C|Daewoo Engineering & Construction]] and [[Daewoo International Corporation]]. They are active in many markets, most significantly in steel processing, ship building and financial services. The corporate entity known as "Daewoo Corporation" is now known as "[[Daewoo Electronics]]" and is focused solely on manufacturing electronics. Daewoo Electronics survives to this day, despite bankruptcy, with a new brand logo "DE", but many of the other subsidiaries and divisions have become independent or simply perished. In North America, [[Target Corporation|Target]] stores market Daewoo Electronics products under their "Trutech" brand on an [[Original Design Manufacturer|ODM]] basis. In 2004, [[General Motors]] pulled the [[Daewoo Motors|Daewoo]] brand of vehicles out of Australia and New Zealand, citing irreparable brand damage. Later that same year, GM announced that Daewoo Motors in Europe would be [[Rebadging|rebadged]] as [[Chevrolet]] on 1 January 2005. In 2005, it was announced that Daewoo cars would have a [[Holden]] badge in Australia and New Zealand. In South Africa, Thailand, and the Middle East, Daewoo models were already branded Chevrolet. In South Korea, Daewoo was renamed GM Korea. As part of the company reorganization, the content and the structure of its brand portfolio (its brand architecture) was reorganized.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://merriamassociates.com/2010/11/general-motors-a-reorganized-brand-architecture-for-a-reorganized-company/ |title=General Motors: A Reorganized Brand Architecture for a Reorganized Company |publisher=Merriamassociates.com |date=2010-11-22 |access-date=2012-06-23 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120604181905/http://merriamassociates.com/2010/11/general-motors-a-reorganized-brand-architecture-for-a-reorganized-company/ |archive-date=2012-06-04 }}</ref> In 2011, GM discontinued the Daewoo brand name in South Korea and Vietnam and replaced it with the Chevrolet brand.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v5/newsworld.php?id=567096/ |title=GM Korea Says Goodbye To Daewoo, Hello To Chevrolet |publisher=bernama.com |date=2011-02-28 |access-date=2012-06-23}}</ref> The brand stayed used by GM in various CIS countries where it had a strong presence such as [[Belarus]],<ref>{{cite web|access-date=2023-01-05 |date=2011-08-25 |first=Matt |language=en-US |last=Gasnier |title=Belarus 2010: GAZ Gazelle and Daewoo Matiz dominate |url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/2011/08/belarus-2010-gaz-gazelle-and-daewoo-matiz-dominate/ |website=Best Selling Cars Blog}}</ref> [[Tajikistan]],<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2023-01-05 |date=2013-07-23 |first=Matt |language=en-US |last=Gasnier |title=Tajikistan 2013: Toyota Camry and Daewoo Nexia possible leaders |url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/2013/07/tajikistan-2013-toyota-camry-and-daewoo-nexia-possible-leaders/ |website=Best Selling Cars Blog}}</ref> [[Moldova]],<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2023-01-05 |date=2014-04-23 |first=Matt |language=en-US |last=Gasnier |title=Moldova March 2014: Daewoo Matiz up to 2nd place |url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/2014/04/moldova-march-2014-daewoo-matiz-up-to-2nd-place/ |website=Best Selling Cars Blog}}<!-- auto-translated by Module:CS1 translator --></ref> [[Kazakhstan]]<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2023-01-05 |date=2013-07-15 |first=Matt |language=en-US |last=Gasnier |title=Kazakhstan June 2013: Lada Priora #1, Daewoo Nexia on podium|url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/2013/07/kazakhstan-june-2013-lada-priora-leads-daewoo-nexia-on-podium/ |website=Best Selling Cars Blog}}<!-- auto-translated by Module:CS1 translator --></ref> and [[Uzbekistan]]<ref>{{cite web |access-date=2023-01-05 |date=2015-11-21 |first=Matt |language=en-US |last=Gasnier |title=Uzbekistan 2015: Change of guard from UZ-Daewoo Nexia to Gentra?|url=https://bestsellingcarsblog.com/2015/11/uzbekistan-2015-change-of-guard-from-uz-daewoo-nexia-to-gentra/ |website=Best Selling Cars Blog}}<!-- auto-translated by Module:CS1 translator --></ref> until the mid-2010s.
