But of course this also provides a good opportunity for Chinese LCD screen manufacturers, especially in the context of oversupply and lower prices as Chinese low-cost LCD products are flooded. market.

According to analyst firm Eugene Investment & Securities , China’s LCD screen production accounted for 55% of global production before the outbreak.

Meanwhile, some large Korean display manufacturers such as LG and Samsung also have factories in Guangzhou and Suzhou. However, according to observers, damage caused by corona virus does not affect too much to these factories compared to Chinese firms.

With LCD production declining, LCD panel selling prices are expected to begin to rise again and accelerate from this month.

The price of LCD monitors for 32-inch HD TVs has dropped from $ 64 to only $ 29 in November 2019. Especially, the price of LCD screen for 55 inch UHD TV has even dropped from USD 176 to USD 98.

Lee Seung-woo, an executive director at Eugene Investment & Securities, said LCD panel prices may increase this year but cannot be compared to the beginning of 2019. According to Lee, the important thing is the recovery. feedback on LCD demand in the market.

According to the Korea Economic Research Institute, the value of South Korea’s screen exports will decrease by 10% in 2020 compared to last year.
