What this shows Korea's Innovation Score is 44.7/100 (top 25% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Korea?

Each dot is one of Korea’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Korea’s own 11.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Korea's grants concentrate

Korea Electric Terminal Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 47.8% of grants classified under B60R (Vehicles, Vehicle Fittings, OR Vehicle Parts, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Korea sits between JYH ENG Technology Co., Ltd. and Khoros, LLC.

Korea's three-year grant acceleration

Korea Electric Terminal Co., Ltd. shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
