TLDR: The company’s CEO is bankrupt because of the attack, and this is a series of public announcements that describe how he's trying to recover from the ransomware.
He couldn’t afford the price that the hackers were asking and is selling his company to afford the ransom money.
He already paid a portion of it and is asked to pay the rest of it for the remaining encryption keys.
The announcements are published at http://notice.nayana.com/ but they are in Korean and the website goes down frequently.
We had an older machine get hit by WannaCry, but it happened to have some files on it we'd rather keep. It took 3 weeks on the outdated hardware to crack the key and another 2 weeks to decrypt it all, but we recovered everything and paid no one.
