2 Million Won Robot Vacuum... The Tech Hegemony War Reaches the Living Room

Low-priced robot vacuums are a thing of the past.

They spray 180-degree steam directly onto the floor, wiping and scrubbing repeatedly.

Targeting the preferences of Koreans who live a floor-seated lifestyle, this Chinese-made robot vacuum carries a price tag of 2 million won.

The phrase "mistake of the continent" is obsolete; they are now stepping into the same ring to compete directly with Samsung and LG.

With Chinese companies sweeping the top five spots in the global market, and the United States shutting its doors citing "security threats," where have they turned their eyes?

It is none other than the Korean living room.
