Hello.

South Korea manufactures the most RAM.  Last year, the country's
market share was about 43 percent.

Strongholds in Electronics"

-------

Specifically, most of the South Korean memory fabs are near the city of Seoul.

Samsung and Hyundai are two of the top South Korean memory
manufacturers. Samsung's memory fabs are mostly in KIHEUNG, which is
near Seoul. Hyundai's memory fabs are in ICHON, which is also close to
Seoul.
