According to the research report ""South Korea Digitally Printed Wallpaper Market Overview, 2028,"" published by Bonafide Research, the South Korea Digitally printed wallpaper market is expected to add more than USD 175 Million by 2028. The digitally printed wallpaper market is segmented based on substrate type. Some of the commonly used substrates for digitally printed wallpaper include vinyl, non-woven materials, paper, and others.
