A note, that supplier isn't Korean. It is Asian. And well known. (Tokyo Shibaura).

That's Toshiba, right? Certainly explains the Toshiba tuners and IC on the analog board. I guess they had shifted some TV production to Korea.

I'm so used to late 70s 13" black and white sets like this being made by Samsung.

Yup Toshiba. At the time they sold Toshiba, Sanyo & Warwick.
Toshiba was the best, a solid set.
Main problem with most was on early production sets. They had
double sided PCB's & the feed throughs would get intermittent. Caused
all kinds of symptoms. They fixed that later. Just slap it & watch on !

I haven't put a proper input into it yet but this set certainly seems to work fine, it originally didn't have any sound but after cleaning the volume pot the sound came back.
