Cable, Maeri, Hyuandi, Wurlitzer, and yep, even Samick, are made by Samick. Check out "Korean" on the search mode, and you ought to be able to read for days.... TNCR. Over 20 years.

At one time Samick was the largest producer of pianos in the world. As you might guess, such a large company has many different levels of quality to satisfy various price points. Jolly has given you a long list of those.
