Maybe not!
With experience in disaster recovery, a new shipyard director, and a few new operational managers, it's possible they'll give Chongjin a second chance.

User “Rohirrim” on a Russian forum posted a satellite image of the shipyard at Ryongampo (39.93250121493378, 124.34345614856704) in the far north-west of the DPRK, the user writes:
Well, while all ‘public’ attention is focused on North Korean destroyers, the Ryongampo shipyard is quietly building two 35m patrol boats or missile FACs. Similar ships are also being built at Nampo in a closed pavilion

the other 3 units under construction in Nampo in early 2024

The photo may show the three ships moored alongside the Amnok-class frigate. They could be the ones under construction in a large covered facility at the Nampo shipyard, inspected by Kim Jong-un in February 2024.
