Hyundai Motor Company

Hyundai Motor Company (officially 현대 자동차 주식회사 = Hyŏndae Chatongch’a Chusik-hoesa) is a South Korean automobile manufactor founded in 1967, doing business worldwide and since 1998 part of Hyundai Kia Group. See also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyundai_Motor_Company.
Its logo shows a stylized slanted "H" with round cutouts inside a horizontally lying elipsis. Apart from the litteral meaning, at this page it is said that the logo is also supposed to be symbolic of the company's desire to expand.
The ovaloid shape indicates the company's global expansion and the slanted, stylized 'H' is symbolic of two people (specifically the company and customer) shaking hands.
At http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Patrulha_GNR.jpg a blue flag with white logo and lettering, on a 2:3 background and flying freely from a vertical pole indoors is shown in use as of 2008 in Portugal, in what may be a sample of worldwide usage.

Samsung Electronics

Samsung may seem to have a variant flag from the one we display currently. There's this flag that actually has more letters in the Korean inscription below than the one we have on our site.

The flag has the Hangul script 삼성전자, which is the name of Samsung Electronics, the flagship subsidiary of Samsung Group.
