Official Business

Registered name: Workspace Ashpath Mining Review Co., Ltd.

Established: 2019

Head office: Office 9, 41 Demo-ro, Cheongju 00000, South Korea

How We Started

In 2019, three former data-centre cable installers in Cheongju noticed a gap: cryptocurrency farms were buying ASIC miners in bulk without anyone checking whether the stock cable lengths and exit angles would work with standard vertical trays. A breaker trip at a partner site in Osong — traced to a pinched neutral behind a poorly routed PDU feed — convinced us to document layouts the way industrial electricians already do for enterprise racks.

We began as a small review desk above a parts supplier on Demo-ro, testing units that operators brought in on pallets. By 2021, farms were asking us to visit on-site, and the cable-managed rack assessment became our primary service.

What We Do Today

We remain an assessment and documentation practice, not a miner reseller or hosting provider. Our technicians visit farms, run load tests on hardware sustaining at least 0.05 TH/s, and produce layout drawings that maintenance teams can follow without guesswork.

Our Team

Jae-won Park — Lead layout assessor. Fifteen years in commercial electrical fit-out before moving to mining farms in 2018.

Hye-jin Oh — Hardware bench reviewer. Former repair technician for immersion cooling units; handles single-unit reviews in our Cheongju workshop.

Tae-woo Lim — Field photographer and report editor. Documents cable runs and produces the annotated PDFs clients receive after each visit.

Working Approach

We photograph before we recommend. Every assessment includes timestamped images of existing runs so you can compare progress after remediation. We speak plainly about trade-offs: a perfectly tidy tray is worthless if it blocks intake airflow.

Values

  • Independence — We do not sell miners, hosting contracts, or electrical installation. Recommendations are not tied to product margins.
  • Traceability — Labels and drawings use a consistent scheme so any technician on your night shift can follow them.
  • Local presence — Based in Cheongju, we know the voltage quirks and seasonal humidity patterns that affect cable insulation in central Korea.

Relationship to Clients

Most of our repeat work comes from farms that expanded a row and wanted the new racks to match the labelling standard we set during the first assessment. We stay available by email for clarification questions about delivered reports for thirty days after each visit.
