Hi, I bought this jacket at a market in Thailand (pics below), is the writing on the label Korean? Is it just the name of the company or is it the name of an individual person?

Anyone know something about this company, I did a Google, but nothing came up.

Just curious, thanks!

I think it's a company name. the "Ju" in parenthesis means incorporated, doesn't it?

It says (Ju) Shinsege SM System

Ju does mean incorporated when used with parenthesis.

신세기 SM 시스템 is a small recruiter/HR provider in janitorial/maintenance/property security services. Your jacket is likely a uniform of this company.
