Additionally, South Korean consumers are increasingly becoming aware of the importance of energy efficiency and sustainability, and are seeking products that offer energy-saving features and eco-friendly materials.

One of the key trends in the Comfort & Lighting market in South Korea is the increasing adoption of smart home technology. South Korean consumers are embracing the convenience and control offered by smart home devices, which allow them to remotely control and automate various aspects of their homes, including lighting and comfort settings.
