**Cheongwon Mill** is a [pulp mill](/source/Pulp_mill) and [paper mill](/source/Paper_mill) situated in [Cheongju](/source/Cheongju), [South Korea](/source/South_Korea). Owned by [Jeonju Paper](/source/Jeonju_Paper), the mill sources its fiber from [deinking](/source/Deinking) to feed a single [paper machine](/source/Paper_machine) producing [newsprint](/source/Newsprint). PM1 has an annual production of 183,000 tonnes, featuring a trimmed width of 6,380 millimeters (251 in) and a production rate of 1,300 meters (4,300 ft) per minute.[1]

The mill was established by [Shin Ho Paper](/source/Shin_Ho_Paper), with construction starting in March 1994.[1] Shin Ho was struck hard by the [1997 Asian financial crisis](/source/1997_Asian_financial_crisis).[2] They sold two of their mills, Cheongwon and [Singburi Mill](/source/Singburi_Mill) in Thailand, to the Norwegian pulp and paper company [Norske Skog](/source/Norske_Skog) on 18 September 1998.[3] Cheongwon Mill became Norske Skog Korea.[1] These assets were merged into [PanAsia Paper](/source/PanAsia_Paper) from 1 February 1999.[4] Operations in Korea were established through the company PanAsia Paper Korea, which along with Cheongwon consisted of [Jeonju Mill](/source/Jeonju_Mill). Ownership passed to Norske Skog again in January 2006.[1] The Korean operations were the first of Norske Skog's mills to be demerged, in June 2008.[5] Cheongwon then became part of Jeonju Paper.[1]
