The Korean relativistic heavy-ion-collision experimentalists are actively working on not only the data analysis, but also the development of relevant detectors. We have developed various detectors for the LHC experiments at CERN, the RHIC experiments at BNL, and the SIS experiments at GSI/FAIR. For some detector components, we completed the mass production in Korea, and finished the installation. As examples, we introduce the tungsten-silicon calorimeter and the resistive plate chambers for the PHENIX collaboration and the ring imaging Cherenkov detector for the CBM collaboration in this article.
