Certain trade agreements allow goods to enter the market with preferential or zero duty, depending on the “origin” of their goods.

For example, if 50% of the good is domestically made, it will have favoured access to S. Korea. As members of the EU, European content counts as domestically sourced, so Brexit will have significant implications.
