Financial damages in the South Korean trial are considerably smaller than elsewhere. In the US, Apple is demanding around $2.5bn from Samsung, whereas in Korea the damages amount to around $90,000 apiece and do not involve sales injunctions against products actually in stores.
What’s at risk, local legal experts say, is Samsung’s reputation – arguably a far more valuable commodity than cash. “If they lose this ruling it will be symbolically terrible for Samsung” one lawyer – not connected with the case – suggested, particularly given that the case is being held in the company’s home country.
