South Korean products have certainly gained a foothold in America lately. Automobiles, electronics, and perhaps other products have gained respectability with consumers. Hyundai, Samsung, LG and some other name brands are among the top names these days. The progression of quality has been impressive.
I was wondering about South Korean automobiles and how they compare to their Japanese counterparts of yesteryear. Where in the Japanese timeline of products do you think the Korean products are now? Do Hyundais, etc. compare to the 80's, 90's, 00's of Japanese products? What about other products? I know some would even argue the South Korean electronics products have surpassed the Japanese quality.
