The South Korea’s car care market is divided into two segments: DIY/retail stores and DIFM/service centers. DIY and retail stores currently dominate the market due to the DIY culture that is gaining traction among South Korea’s consumers who prefer to do their own car maintenance and care. DIY car care products enable consumers to perform basic maintenance and repairs on their own, saving time and money.

This has made it more difficult for consumers to perform basic maintenance and repairs on their own, resulting in a greater demand for professional car care services.
