    as long as other phones brands exist i doubt there would be a dominance in the korean market: sure a brand can assert its existence in the market with a good after sales service, spare parts availability, customizable/rootable phones, etc…but also as one get older, conveniency can dictates the choice of a phone brand. being a home brand would make owning its product easily convenient buy cutting on repair costs, shipping delays etc
